I live in the SE Suburbs, near the clayton area, I've seen a loooot of other skylines around there :P so i hope i can recognise some of them soon!

Hey thanks guys, looks like a great forum to me. I saw that post about the cruise on the 10th, bummer, im on holiday in perth until the 14th :-P I'll catch the next event though, definitely. Oh and its a non-turbo gts, the 97 model with the dual airbags.

I might give a word of warning about T.G.S Performance from whom i bought the car, recently i had a low speed front impact (not my fault either) the result of which being that i had to get a new front kit and headlights fitted, mainly due to the poor fitting of the front spoiler. as it turned out, when T.G.S had fitted the previous front after they had imported it, they REMOVED the front impact bar to get it to fit, thus giving fark all front impact diffusion in the incedence of a major accident. The good blokes at Blackburn Motor Body had to build a new one and fit it before putting the new kit on as it was totally unsafe, and i would never have realised without having that little smash :-P On the upside, its all fixed and has a new kit which looks and is fitted much better than before, all on the other drivers insurance! She'll be looking first before cornering in the future!

I'll keep an eye out for a black r32 (sweet photos btw) in the future! have you ever noticed that at the junction of ferntree gully and blackburn, you'll normally see 2 or 3 skylines? lol its weird

Cheers,

yeah, her karma must have been paying back 100:1 that day :-)

well, i'd rather be in queensland or something, but my family's there, and they pay for the tickets :-P if its free i'll take it.

on a side note, my brother here in perth wants to sell his r33, do you think i should tell him to advertise it here in the perth forum??

Cheers,

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
