Sorry to butt in but how many of you Newcastle guys are coming down for the Show and Shine? It's on the central coast so nice and close. I was hoping to get a few Newie guys entering (I know we've got one already).

Also, what are/is the Skylines workshop/s up there?

Thanks.

Ill need a lift down to the Show'n'Shine event if any of you bloke are going down and would like me to navigate your the wrong way! :(

Abo Bob:

I get my work done at Denstoj Auto Centre, 49261718, 8 Arnott Street, Newcastle.

Very happy and impressed with their services so far.

Also RX Engineering is very good too, locally probably the best from what i hear on the grapevine.

That would be good Gruntn. We need lots of entrants to make this work. It's just a great big social car day with a mojor emphasis on Skylines obviously :(.

I'm sure your car is worth entering Mr Wizard.

Thanks for those d-d.

Do any of you guys go down to the harbour where all the done up cars park? I've been up to Newie about 6 times and always see them there. Maybe someone who feels super social and sure of themselves could hand out a few flyers there one day for us.

Any of you guys keep confidence pills in your glove box?

What's the best day/time to get the most people? Are there heaps of dickheads there at all?

Sunday afternnon at the foreshore is MASSIVE.

Im talkign insanely massive and it takes a good 10 mins to drive along a 60m strip.

The majority of people down there are young kids that want to be cool or whatever, i know from our skyline's aus gathering we choose to park elsewhere so we dont have to deal with the majority of peoples attitudes that is undoubtedly associated with the newcastle foreshore scence on sunday afternoon's. But im sure with a bit of ticker and enthusiam you'll find the right people to hand your flyers out to.

Best bet is to go down from 2:30pm onwards so you can grab a park, the main action starts around 3pm.

:rofl:

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
