Duncan, do you have a pic of your r32? we could show the wide variety of skylines, from street, to race

Yes a model would be nice :D

Stagea would be ok! After all it has an RB in it......

Lets organise this sooner rather than later

Some might want to be careful entering your cars into these types of events. A lot of car enthusiats do see your car - and a portion of those people would be the kind to steal cars etc. I imagine a few cars get stolen and stripped after shady types get to see exactly whats under the bonnet at these types of shows. Maybe removing your plates for the event would be a good idea? Just so people dont recognise it when it's parked at a local shopping centre or whatever. Some people may argue that this is one of the reasons that you mod your car (so others can admire it) - but you have to ask yourself if they are the kind of people you want admiration from!

Call me paranoid, but I don't think it's worth the 'glory'. :P

wats the problem? you cant use a phone?

i dont see wats so hard about getting the people together filling out the forms and waiting till the date to take ur cars down

Yep got it in one. I cannot use a phone :P

Well when I went to the site to have a look, it was says show booked out. Thats why I emailed them... Meh

Chris/AMS, I wouldn't mind putting my Stagea up there with yours, but I probably still won't have made any mods to it, going by the short time any money spends in my bank account before I can even consider spending it on the car. I would have at least liked to have lowered it with one of SK's kits (or similar), and maybe thrown some nice wheels on. Then again, I could leave the standard wheels on to contrast against your car, too.

But having the car displayed also means not driving it for a few days... ;) Ah, well, I guess if this goes ahead and I add my car to the SAU stand, then I'll just deal with it.

I'll most likely take my plates off though, maybe get some dummy ones made up for display purposes.

Cheers,

Nick T.

right on my man. i leave my car in the garage for this very reason. why drive it when someone will spot my plates and track me down you know. :(

be good to see some skyline bling at the autosalon. good luck guys.

As far as number plates go, we could all get fake plates made up in the same style as car makers use for their new models, simply with "SAU" on them??

Theyre quite cheap aswel

Good Idea

Autosalon got back to me today

Hi

Do apologise for the late reply Chris, I just returned to the office today.

Anyway... Trade Stand is design for anyone who wishes to promote their business and for that please contact our Sales Department. Club display is for any competitor who wishes to promote their club... you can have banners.... T-shirts.. so long none of the text or printing contains any business who sponsored the club.

To be a club you must have a minimum of 6 cars...

Attached is an entry form for the Sydney and Newcastle show

Now how do I go about uploading the entry forms? :D

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
