Since we are being philosophical in here, I just want to say that I think there is value in a place where Skyline focused but not single pointed people can discuss cars, in a moderated environment with some minimum level of respect.

There are other places around if you want something else, either less moderated, more generic, or more specific. 

Thanks for keeping the place alive for so many years Christian, with recent events I've been thinking a lot about the old days, friends we've made and lost through here and how SAU has made it in one form or another through so much change in the world. 

17 years now.

I think we should close the forum and move permanently to Facebook so we can put up with 100 more people like Slap and answer the same questions every day regarding failed AFMs, cam angle sensors and what oil to use in for a basic service.

That's pretty much how I look at it. Plenty of people prefer the lack of moderation, quick responses and convenience of facebook. 

SAU is deliberately different, and I think the quality of the content is better as a result.

Let's have a Skyline remembrance day cruise. Can be a car cruise where we all use our euro SUVs and tow our Skylines on trailers.

At least we won't be defected or end up on Today Tonight

The age of facebook being preference is surely dying. I find it a very hard place to take things seriously purely due to those reasons you mention.

And I agree content quality is far better on SAU.

Bingo. Old man style, I rather these forums stay in the format. Easy enough to search through.

If you want to type incoherent shit with a random picture that has nothing to do with your post, do it on shitbook.

    • Of course you can. That was a waste. Straight down one oil drain gallery and out the sump hole. Could at least have run the engine a little (obviously with at least minimum oil level on the stick).
    • Oh really? Maybe I'm being silly. I'll get some more shots. I had it higher but found that it went too high after a drive, I never knew this but exhausts can move around a bit when hot (makes sense, just never knew) and when it was higher it would make nice cooking plastic smells. That said, I could put some heat tape on a'la 90's R33 exhausts     Ha, I've spent a lot of my life in castle hill waiting for cars to be done. I think I'd prefer something closer but thanks D. 
    • @Duncan Yes, changed filter every time. I don't have the service manual for the car yet (Car was imported and they removed everything when importing). I've been using the oil change threads in the forum as reference.   @Milkmun The second oil change was after ~4 months after the first months and I wasn't sure about reusing engine oil that was opened. The third oil change happened within 3 weeks of the second oil change and I used the previous leftover oil to just "clean up" the system. (Poured it through while the sump plug was open")
    • I left the ceramic coating off this bit, hopefully it just comes off after a few drives.   The gap between the spokes is too tight for anything on a stick, its only marginally bigger than my finger. I have to use a brush to get in there and its a big reason why I thought I'd try the coating.   Absolutely will do. I have EBC Blue Stuff pads to put on the front which will make them a bit dirtier. I'm hoping a pressure wash will just get most off. The shine is different to most, its very thin but seems very well 'attached' so hopefully it lasts.
