As the topic states, Auto Salon is back in Adelaide on the 12-13th August.

There are several cars in the group that are worthy of entering (not that I expect we will win King of Autosallon) and I wanted to know if its worth setting up an SAU site. Entry is $100, (less than a tank of petrol), and we need a minimum of 6 cars for a club display.

If your car is up to the job and you can spare the time to clean and polish then set up on Friday afternoon (3pm -10pm), add your name and details here. We tried this once before with mixed results, so this time I am suggesting people will nedd to be sure by the end of June and cars will be entered on the 1st of July (payment required)

Might be worth pitching in for a banner too.

And guess what? Darren works in Printing: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=120286 :mellow:

Oh and i think I'll keep my dunga OUT of this. Might be able to come by and help setup though.

Edited by Oosh

i'm keen, do you know the cost of entering plus dyno runs?

The only problem i can forsee for myself is that i work arvo's so setting up on friday could be difficult for me but i'll try and work something out!

If the car is ready in time then I am in - put me down as a 'yes' and I'll update prior to July 1st

My plan is to take the Friday off to prepare and set-up my car and then I'll help others as required.

No offence intended Mr. iNFMS, but it's SAU or nothing for me.

the r31 club had a smallish display last year

banner - best bet is to speak to Ted Turner Signs at Edwardstown as they did ours for around the $160 mark i reckon - and thats a 2000x1000 vinyl banner

dyno run is included in teh entry cost, dB drag racing is extra and ya gotta enter somewhere else

Well a few Skylines from my mechanic's w/shop are comming up to enter this year, as they just missed the Melbourne A.S. Would you allow us to join your stand? If i come i think there will be at least 4 Skylines.

Not sure if they want to enter on their own though, so i will keep you posted : .

i could b up 4 it, but ill know closer to the date cos might have somthing on....my car would need a bit of work done 2 it, the front kit is all hacked up at the bottom and i gota fix my lights cos they moved and clean my engine bay....actually clean the whole car...haha

I should be able to put my new car in:) as for dyno comp yeah may put mine in.

did u bought the 32 GTR from Kasai??

the car in yr avatar looks like it

looks like we got the number

now Matt/guy can collect $100 from each of us to ensure the club display will FINALLY happen this year :PBJ:

This is looking good so far this year.

I dont have a problem with other skylines fron Melbourne joining with us and it may even help if the Vic chapter of SAU (are u guys a propper club?) have an SAU banner we could borrow for the weekend.

The other aspect of a display is what sort of display will we set up? The entry form says a minimum is some sort of ground cover.

Any Ideas for a theme?

SAU VIC is the biggest chapter of SAU :blush:

Just spoke to the guys and they are entering as their own club "DRAGON". Not sure if i am going yet, but if i do i will prefer to enter with SAU :), i will keep you posted..

Jameszilla (James) is the person to PM for the SAU VIC banner. We also have merchandise :), nothing better than representing your club by wearing club polos/t-shirts :).

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
