  1. Don't be too picky on the exact car you want, even though I may sound like a hypocrite as I was exactly like this. I would take a R33 over R34 any day simply as it's more of a Pure, streamlined car. The V-Specs or M-Specs might be harder to find, but the smarter choice when buying GTR's is not to go off by impulse, but to go off by what condition the car is. If you've ever owned one you will know that they can be costly at times to upkeep in the long term, and a car where the owner has not done that or done tacky mods generally is a rough car where poor paint jobs, bad servicing will show up later.
  2. Hi Everybody. Our next event is locked in, a breakfast meet and greet. More information on the events page and link below : http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/465831-breakfast-meet-23rd-july-saturday/
  3. Hi Guys. I would like to get our SAU team here together for a get together, what better way to do it than a few nice snacks, coffee and a chat followed with possibly some photos. I have seen a lot of activity on our WA page, so everybody is welcome to drop past, check each others Skylines and GTRs out and have a bite. When - 9AM Onwards. Saturday 23rd July. What - Breakfast, Food, Coffee, Chat, Show and tell. Bring your car along and chat about Skylines and GTRs. I would also encourage GTR owners to attend as I would love to see some GTR presence. Where - Mid-Centry CAFE - 56-58 Michael ST, Yokine. I have chosen this spot purely as we can be close by to our cars while we eat. It's not your typical CAFE but it's got a cool retro Bed-and-breakfast type theme to it. This is a relaxed event in a relaxed quiet area, please arrive and depart gently and respect others around you. Hopefully if all goes well next time I'm thinking Pizza.
  4. Elle. For parts just use Amayama, you will have to know the part numbers though it will end up much cheaper then get a workshop of your choice to do the work, downside can be parts warranty may not be covered if the workshop is not supplying it, so for things like brackets, hangers well amayama is the go, it's all a gamble but given the price difference, then the time spending yourself ordering parts. Genuine vs Non genuine - I always prefer genuine as you know it's been tested on the car and made the way it was made to be, with aftermarket it's hit and miss you really need to see peoples experiences with aftermarket pads and rotors. Brakes are one thing I would not cheap out on. Unfortunately we get GTR Tax. Genuine rotors for R33 GTR for example are like $1800 or something like that. Aftermarket is good but chose known tried and tested brands, I'd go for something like a street pad as it will be more kinder to you. But Elle forget all that, I want to see you tune that beast and raise the boost.
  5. No don't you mean how they made a 2 door commodore and called it the Monaro. Rather than just have a 2 door commodore.
  6. Hi Guys who wants to have a morning breakfast meet. The reason why I didn't set something much earlier like we discussed a few months ago is I had problems finding a CAFE where we could look over our cars while we eat and be near our cars and not far away. I have managed to find a nice suburban CAFE. It is called Mid-century CAFE and Collectables, and it is in Yokine, 4KM away from the CBD nice, quiet and out of the way of typical noise, rush and crowds of your typical cafe place and traffic jams. It's a pretty basic place with basic menu, not your typical CAFE setting but it is a retro setting. They are closed Sundays but Saturday mornings are open from 8:30. Probably not looking too clear this Saturday but next one might be better, so I'll set a day and see you all there. So let me know if you're keen on this to bring your Skyline and have a bite, I'd love to see some GTR's out too.
  7. You guys honestly got to learn how to organize meets better all I'm saying just understand it and give some more information T_revs I don't see you organizing no cruises or posting any pictures of any meets why don't you make one and come show us your car. 2nd of all whenever I set a firm date on anything or said something is going ahead, it always went ahead, people actually turned up. You may have been thinking about the recent thread I had, I had not set any date for it or locked anything in so yes that is different it's not possible to cancel something that's not been set yet, the goal was here to help Local business so they can support the import scene but it looked like most people preferred car meets or cruises so the decision was made not to lock anything on for that type of event.
  8. Yes and then excuse the whole privacy leak so I had got my GTR out ready but Elle messaged me and said something along the lines of it's not going ahead and that nobody wants to go so I had logged onto hear and then found out the meet point is apparently changing so I decided I'm not going to come if the whole thing is being cancelled or changed on the last minute. Why is not having too much people an excuse to can the whole thing that's going ahead stop fu cking around guys
  9. It is quite odd that this was made official and that was going ahead, only for a meet point to be changed on the last day. I didn't show up because of the confusion of the meet point changed all of a sudden I cannot be at 2 meet points at once, Elle what is your reason for a no show given you were up for it? Can we establish what's the point of doing this or do we want to actually do a meet or cruise?
  10. So what do we want to do Friday afternoon/evening or saturday morning I guess we can always watch movies even in the day if we like. Make a post in the events to get more viewers.
  11. ok who else is coming Elle I am looking at you.
  12. OK I'm In. Let's do it meet up Friday and go from there as Zookey planned, Movie sounds good so let's pick a movie or just decide when we get there, good quick way to get things happening. We need participation guys so if you're reading just rock up with your Skyline whatever you drive, I'll probably try to bring the Camera and Tripod to get some snaps and we'll go from there. Zookey put up a post on the Events section just to get some more exposure.
  13. i like it how you took a picture of the envelopes
  14. Hi guys if I get some time I'll try organize some small meet or mini cruise the forum activity seems to be slowly going up. I had wanted to do a small meet but owning a GTR is sometimes hard and doesn't leave much spare time 2nd to the dumb C U N T that gave this thread 1 star come on what have you contributed to the group?
  15. Everybody who has bought a rewound car back from him should be entitled to compensation. When is this guy getting sued and have any charges been laid? It does also have to be said you guys the buyers are also driving people like Edward Lees to flourish, with pushing values of imports down people won't want to pay much but still want good cars, so Edward Lee provides a a market for people to buy freshly imported cars locally from him.
  16. Hi. This event will not be going ahead. Thanks
  17. Hi. In order to set a date and organize everything, there needs to be a decent amount of people to participate in what the event is to offer so I'm still gathering interest at this stage. Thanks.
  18. Hi Guys as mentioned before, our next event will be a Maintenance day and Meet and greet, we will have access to a few hoists to get your car up for a check over to do some upgrades, fluid changes, anything you want. Check out post here we need as much as people on board to make it work. Date is not set yet but we need to get people onboard to make this work : http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/463824-sauwa-maintenence-day-group-meet/
  19. Yes guys please pass on the word to people who are older members or other skyline owners you know and get them signed up on this forum as we need to get numbers up and people who want to get their car on the hoist for whatever it be.
