B-Man

Sorry guys - this day got canned due to lack of numbers.

Cool - that's 25 cars. I'll be calling around tomorrow. So I'll post back when I get some number$. Yeah - I mentioned getting $$ to the tinter guy - incase some folks didn't trust me for whatever reason. I would agree though that if you all got your $$ to me , it would be administratvely easier all round. So I think we'll go this way - You guys should all know me by now to know that I won't skip the country... justinfox - I don't think we will be ready for you mate - sorry - So I see that you have two choices - keep the Solace appt - or cancel it and wait for us. Depends what you want to do - BTW Nice car - I saw the pics in your wheels for sale thread - Nice wheels too - I wish I could afford them , they would look hot on my Silver R33. - Sorry, I digress. Whoreing my own threadi WTF Ok peeps - stay tuned !

OK, having gone thru some pain myselft with modding my skyline, my piece of advice is this. The turbo is the holy grail of the power you get from your engine. Depending on what you want to use the car for, will determine your power levels and turbo configuration. (ie Street, Track, Drag, Combo) Once you choose your turbo, you build around it - Pistons, Rods, Bearings, Injectors, Cooler, ECU, Ignition, Cams, etc (BTW I am talking perfect world situation - which never seems to eventuate hey) Choose wisely and choose once. Id be taking advantage of Mark's offer if $cash$ not there for you ideal setup (Very Generous of you Mark BTW - gotta love how club memebers help each other out) And remember - once you up the ante on the turbo, you gotta look at the support systems and internals too - but I guess you knwo that hey ! Good luck Brad !

Lurve your work on the sig Merli !

:werd: I am glad no-one was hurt.

Or.... bring back the trader rating - I liked that one. Understanding that Prank and Brody are hella busy with other stuff (Avatars, Styles, etc)

Yup - get a FMIC. You will need 550cc injectors . Get a 600HP fuel pump too - joking ! ! I personally don't like EMS ECU's - what type is it ? Possibly better with a PFC, Microtech or Wolf. Have you got EBC ?? I would recomend this too. GT3040 is a nice turbo What manifold are you using ? PS I have a GTR cooler with GTS-T mounts for sale - see the for sale section ( /end shameless plug)

Brendan - I understand that the defect nazi's are much more leaniant on pre 96 cars as the tint rules changed then - ie you just say that this is how it was when you bought it ........ As my tint guys said -- when was the last time that you heard of someone getting done for tint ?? Me - never ..... there you go... That said - SAU does not condone illegal modifications or activities

Hi Ash - (I think that) You are entitled to your Bling Bling back - don't worry about that ! If you can't (or don't want to) change to April you should be able to get a refund. To let you guys know - I am doing the OP drift day thing with Aaron (Fatz organised) on Saturday 24th Jan. SO - I will be talking to Aaron at length about this and our options then. Does anyone want to trade (with cash back) on the drift day on the Saturday (ie the next day) ???? Drift day is $150 - so you get $75 back Hang tight people B-Man won't let you down ! ! ! :O

Hey Ken (Akira) Great Idea ! (didn't I just speak to you on the phone BTW ??? j/ks - ha ha ha) I'll see if I can negotiate something with Aaron. Leave it to me Post here if you have pre-paid I know I did: B-Man Ken Ash . . . .

Dude - you need to go back to school.... You'll get $275 back , if Aaron agrees (which is likley) He'll charge you $330 at least if you book again That means the difference is $55 Tell me where you can get $55 NP on a $275 investment in 4 months Thats 20% over 4 months or 80% over a year - real savings ...... NPV not taken into consideration. BTW - I have no fu(king idea what I am talking about but I reckon it would be a bad move - But it's up to you hey ! Are you sure ???

Ash - I dunno I expressed my dissapointment on behalf of SAU-NSW to Aaron today via e-mail. I for one - had taken the day off work (hard to get) I'm hanging out for the 8th of April cause I really want to do this - and for $100 more get my CAMS C3..... But if you guys want your money back - lemme know and I will see what I can do. Apologies guys. On a more positive note - maybe Brad will have his car fixed for the 8th of April I would encourage all to see if you can make the 8th of April - Nothing better than a track full of Skylines on FULL BOOST ! yeah baby ! Also, lets see if we can get some more ppl to come along to the next one ???

I have a GTR cooler for sale - it has GTS-t mounts - $600 ono No piping See the for sale section !

Ewwwww - yuk - I'm not getting into fatz (as much as he would luve it )

Dirty tree - oh yeah - I get it ! uh huh OK, that is 2 more Yes Tony - 4 window and rear - all windows cept the front one !

How much do you want to pay ?? I have one exactly like the one in your pic - same colour and all. It's on my car ATM - but have been thinking of replacing it with a 400R bar or similar.

mzgtst - sorry I missed you out - you are on the list now raz0r - mate we are gonna get a good deal with 23 cars ! CS_180 - 1996 I understand Jimbo - see my thoughts below MrExa - darkest tint is 5% - way illegal , SAU don't condone this, but he will do it Oh and I think mirror tint is available too - I'll check it out. The place is in Nth Ryde / Ryde area - but there is another location too - and also he has a mobile service - obvioulsy cheaper if we go to him - My Skyline took about 1 hr and I waited and chatted to him whilst he did it - Nice guy. OK - this is way more popular than I thought it would be - 23 cars - Which is a good thing. First I thought we could organise a day where we could all go down at a pre-arranged and scheduled times - but since we now have 23 interested cars, I dont think this will be possible So... I will propose that we do like a voucher type system. I will go to him and get prices for the group buy - If the price is good and you guys are still keen, you get the $$ to the tint ppl OR me (if you trust me ) and I'll go down and get 23 (or whatever) vouchers that will entitle you to get your tint done on the vehicle specified. I'll see that the certificates are valid for like 30-45 days - so you all have a month or so to book in a time and day to get your tint done. If this is all agreeable - then I'll take expressions of interest and payments for 2 weeks then close the deal. After the 2 weeks I'll get all the certificates and mail them to you. I'll get details of the tints and types of films available when I negotiate the deal. BTW - I will be pushing for an EXTRA discount for SAU-NSW members - there may be an extra saving of $20 or something there. So if you want to join the club - do so now and we'll see if we can get an extra heavy duty good deal for you ! Anyway - they are my thoughts - it may change after I speak to them....

:BOLLOCKS: I just got this from Aaron : Hi guys, With regret I have to tell you that we have received insufficient numbers to meet Eastern Creeks payment cut off deadline of midday today and therefore we have had to cancel the track day next Friday. The next track day Auto-Motion has scheduled is again at Eastern Creek on the 8th of April. We understand this is a disappointment to you all and apologise for this.

3rd pst from the top !

I got spare rooms at my place for young hot japanese tourists (female) . And I live by the beach - Rezz , we gotta hook up mate - I can sense a 'business opportunity' Might be a better digi cam in it for you :)

Ash - what turbo you got ?? If std - keep boost to less than 12 psi - other wise you may get into same situation as Brad ! ! ! Fore-warned is forarmed ! ! PS - I'm in for a 3 way but not with you two - 2 other female hotties is my preference for a quality 3 way ! :)

Hi Guys, Well I've had a bit of a better look at the plenum/intake and I did imagine that the finish internal to the unit would be better - maybe I got a newby casting engineer or something - I got BIG dags there..... Nothing that can't be fixed mind you .... SK - I do understand that manual labour in Japan is expensive - but when I looked at the Greddy plenum/intake, I thought to myself - yup, designed in japan, made in China or Korea....... I expected better. OK nuff said on the afformentioned problem.... what am I gonna do to fix it ?? Well I had a crack at removing some dags and gave up - this is a job for the pros - Since I paid good dolllar for the unit (more than $1000) I've decided to spend and extra 200-300 to get it extrusion honed, ported and polished. Mirror finish on the inside (used to know a girl like that once..... he he) Here's some before pics.... (i'll post after pics too)

Yeah the line project is going well so far. It's amazing how hindsight works and how you do things differently the 2nd time around (after wasting lotsa $$ making the wrong decisions the first time - you live and learn though) I just lurve Cosmo's - the got all the curves ! yeah baby ! Good to hear from you mate !

ha ha ha ha Duncan - you saw that comment then hey ??? WSID any day pal ! ha ha ha ha
