Hi All,

We are currently having an expression of interest for the Melbourne Autosalon 2006 expo/show.

We are seeking interest from the SAU VIC Members and this event is only open to Members.

For those who aren't members and would like to have your car on display at Autosalon 2006 then you should join SAU VIC immedietly.

We have some interest but would like to see some more people put their car's in. It's a great social weekend filled with lots of cool cars, a great SAU team and lots of antics. Cabin have also offered us buddy passes which means when you car is in you get free entry all weekend for yourself and one other friend.

We have been at all of the previous Autosalon's (2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005) so let's get as many members as we can. I don't wanna miss on this one. Afterall its well known that the SAU crew (and fangartists) basically rule Autosalon for members and their rides.

Show your support, afterall it's your club as much as it ours (SAU Commitee Team).

All of the other car clubs you know or have heard of will be present (IMCC, Evolve, Commodore Car Cruise, Chasers, Rajab Racing) just to name a few. Also all of the stupidly loud audio demo cars, promo girls and cheap merchandise and parts onsale.

THe entry fee gives you two tickets all weekend, access to dyno run is included in the price (if you wish). The full tank requirement is part of event safety. This is to eliminate the risk of a fuel explosion as the fumes in the petrol tank are the dangerous part. When the tank is full (or almost empty also) there are little or no fumes, reducing the risk.

I believe it's part of Cabin's event insurance also. They check every tank upon car entry to the event on the Friday.

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
