Hi Greg,

How did you feel when HICAS screwed up? Is it kind of getting that wobbly feeling in the rear end when cornering?

I felt that too, not sure if that's also my rear suspension bushes due for replacement, or hope not, touch wood, not the HICAS please..

sorry for putting this in here, but i couldn't pm u inark. i'll need that lift buddy. thanks!! :(

no worries...

try pming me again with ur address so i can pick u up.

hey rianto,

that is exactly how it feels -- very unstable at the rear when cornering. it wants to oversteer at the slightest excuse. eg i go over a bump - the rear kicks out. drive over a bit of gravel on the road - rear kicks out. i'd hate to see it in the wet.

i am just assuming its the hicas because i did the diagnostic and 3 errors came up, but it could quite possibly be the bushes because they are getting pretty old...i hadn't thought of them actually. i might take it to ICE or somewhere and get them to have a look at it.

guys, im just writing out the route for the night and we have a couple of problems that i wanted to discuss

first off: when we say "albert park pits" were refering to Aughtie Drive on the pit straight yes?

ok, other stuff is

this is showing hints of being a big turn out cos there are several clubs that are coming, and because iv mapped out a route with with some tight twisties streets and high speed sweaping turns im affraid it may be a problem with anything more than 20 cars

suggestions people:

1. stuff it, lets take the route thats mapped

2. keep it sedate, hwys and main roads

If this is gonna be a big turnout, will the Albert Park pits hold us all? It's not exactly the World's largest car park....

Also, I think that we keep the route that you've mapped out but make sure to make it clear to everyone that noone is responsible for the actions of others and in no way does SAU condone reckless driving, speeding, etc. All risks are at the owner/driver's responsibility.

Make sure that it is clear that this is not a race and people are advised to drive within their own limits.

Just my 2c worth.

actually, i was going to suggest we meet up at the carpark further down the road where RedHeads use to be...

Melway Ref 2KE6, its a pretty big carpark, should be enough

ill keep the route, ill make the suggestion that its not a race but theres always going to be a hand full of tossers

also, authers seat carpark isnt that big either and i doubt it can hold anymore than 20cars up there

ill work something out though

looking fwd to fri night...guess it shouldnt be hard to find , considering there will be quite a few imports in the one spot !!!

i will be departing the cruise at frankston area, not a fan of the twisties, in my car at night with a heap of others just at this stage of my skyline driving experience yet hehe

see you guys there...look for me to be at the back of da pack all the time hehe

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
