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.

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.

      Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.

      Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it

      Coolant leak?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
