A great day and a good learning experience for any Skyline owner. Find out your limitations and those of your car in a controlled environment. Also, letting us all loose was like a free grab in a candy store!! Highly recommended and maybe something the SAU-Qld would be interested in??

Touche! I was sooooo glad I could fix it on the spot and drive home. Wife was staring daggers at me. That is, once she noticed I had stopped..... just sitting there reading a book while her brave husband did battle on the ashphalt!

I really like this photo Gordo

To me it is a whimsical esoteric statement on mans inhumanity to man!

The juxtaposition of the metal and green light versus the blue sky, shows how nature in all it's glory has succumbed to the intervention of the industrial age.

You know, I was thinking nearly exactly the same thing. I was subtely hinting that the green of the stop light represents man's need to move forward through the use of industry and modern tools - and in fact the "traffic light" some may use as a valid icon to represent this age. "stop"... "go" .. just which are we in this daily battle?

The clounds in the background symobolise the fear and unrest that this struggle can cause whilst trying to move humanity forward, against the backdrop of nature and the blue sky of hope and opportunity.

(that and it was a random photo)

Man, why didn't we both get a bachelor of arts and sit around doing nothing all day!?

Hey guys, glad you had a top time at track day. Go a bit easy on me and my dinged front guard. I've got a replacement but it is black and needs painting. I will get to it once the engine is running properly. I have now organised 3 track days at QR an driven 7 laps in total. (grumble).

Next Track Day is booked for the morning of May 9, I already have 20 something people with reserved spots. If your keen to join us send me a PM with your email address.

As I have always said, You can never have enough Skylines at a Track Day !!!

      Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.

      Possible option to replace central computer 370 V36

      By Vee37 路 Posted

      I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out

      Import insurance in 2025

      I鈥檓 with Shannon鈥檚 for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn鈥檛 go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn鈥檛 agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
