Im also interested entering again this year. Vmax havent posted up prices or entry forms yet but, like every year its the last wkend of November. Check out SCC/ Vmax site for details:

http://www.sportingcarclubsa.org.au/Default.aspx?tabid=79

I had the SkyEighty in last year and had a blast, this year depending on condition, the thirtyfour will make an appearance, but since I dont have time to prepare when car arrives, Don't wont to go repping any companies that havent had a chance to work on it yet ;)

Was poking around SCCSA's website and this was in their August Newsletter:

Small Car Sunday – November 17th – 19th 2006

This year’s format will reflect a slight departure from the formula of past years. As usual, the SCS Committee will be calling for volunteers from all Sections of the Club, and welcome any help that is forthcoming. A brief précis of the weekends events are:

The Friday night cruise will use the existing format, however the starting point for 2006 will be the South Parklands and culminate at a venue in the southern suburbs.

Saturday is traditionally the motorfest component of the weekend. Various options are still being investigated. We will make an announcement once specific details are confirmed.

Sunday Show’N’Shine. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the availability of Immanuel College (they have started major capital works), the SCS committee considered several alternative sites for viability. The outcome is that the Sunday Show’N’Shine will be held at Allan Scott Park (aka Morphettville Race Course). This venue will comfortably accommodate 500 cars, and traders, in both covered and open air areas, and will allow for expansion in years to come.

The event coincides with John Blanden’s Climb to the Eagle on the Friday, and Classic Adelaide over the weekend, however the availability of the two venues made this weekend the only one suitable. Our belief is that the spectator demographics of these other events will not impact on Small Car Sunday – the fact that Adelaide will be abuzz with motoring enthusiasts may actually be a major positive!

Am i wrong in saying that at the last car show held at morphetteville race course resulted in a large number of cars being defected at the event and then on leaving aswell??

Does anyone know if we will be given any "get out of jail free cards" with entry??

Don't know about morphetteville race course, but when it was on at immanuel college there were a number of police cars waiting at the exit. One of the sponsors was done in a big way which was really upsetting to most of us.

Cops gave my car a look up and down, one silvia in front of me got so pissed off he let a ripper of a burnout infront of the cops.

Ive been in the last few SCS and there has been a large police prescence on leaving the event, but never really saw anyone have problems as long as they were obeying the road rules, but i heard about the event no long that was held at morphetteville, i think i was called extreme show and shine or something, there was a thread on here at some stage on the topic where people were getting there cars defected on the way in, and even cars in the car park were getting done. Hopefully if the event is organised as it has been in past years there shouldnt be any hassles.

yep i went to that one, was called autotechnica i think. the cops turned the entrance inside the gate into a defect station, with witches hats and everything, until the course owner told them to piss off because it is private property. they then proceded to set up their little station outside of the gates... f**kin lame if you ask me. these events allow us car enthusiats to have some fun with our cars off the streets and they still cant help but be a hassle.

i put my hand up for SCS

so this weekend pass gets me into the mallala to spectate

and sunday i cant be there till 12 - 12:30 till 3

dont really want my car judged but can be looked @

ok most of my questions awnsered here

That's just absolutely s**t. The Cops are getting too big for their boots & don't know when to back off. I don't know how they expect the Import scene to give them any sought of credit or respect when they continue to pull stunts like this. And the Import scene is a growing one.....

go easy on them theve seen far to many d**k head doing stupid things like leaveing these sort of shows and i mean leaving the exit of them drifting it sideways only to hit a tree or worse another car they get called to that and ask the P plater (normally) where you come from and he say oh thast show n shine hows it look for the sence

if we all leave sensibly and dont have things hanging off out car and sounding loud you should be ok

go with a car that looks illeagal and expect to get it looked @

The cops were actually at Autotechknika for a few certain people, yet obviously can't just ping like 2 cars, have to make it look like their after anyone :D

Last SCS, cops just nodded at me in the SkyEighty, it was low and loud, they didn't care.

hopefully the 34 gets the same non-attention from cops.

got a couple funny idea's for display if anyone is interested?

    • Thanks everyone for the replies and suggestions. Got the seats out (hoping I could find some existing grommets but no such luck). By tapping and measuring etc. I could figure out where I could drill through if needed. But first I borrowed an inspection camera and managed to go through factory holes in the chassis rail and could see that the captive nut was holding steady which is why it could retighten. So it was indeed a stripped section of thread, so I applied downforce by levering the bolt head with a screwdriver and went slowly back and forth until it came out. Camera helped a lot cos I could monitor that the captive nut was holding tight. Now I just have one very seized main subframe nut to tackle 😅
    • BOVs do have a purpose, if you ever log pressure before and after the throttle body, you will see a spike pre throttle on lift off from a WOT condition. Enough to bend throttle blades / damage e-throttle motors or simple assist in blowing off cooler pipes. FWIW, the above on really applies to those running at least 2 bar of boost. OP shouldn't have an issue, on the other hand, here are some videos of my shit box over a decade ago with some succulent dose with the airbox on and off. That shit box is unrecognisable these days 🫠    
    • I've tried all different combinations of BOVs/ no BOV and stock bypass valves over the years, on gear changes the stock bypass valve seems to get the car back on boost quicker because in part the turbos wheel speed isn't being slowed down by reversion, although they have issues holding boost much over the stock setting. Most aftermarket BOVs you can adjust the spring, tighter will make it open later and close sooner, but in my experience it'll cause a bit of flutter at low load/rpm anyway. I've also got some input into this whole no bov causing turbo wear, never had an issue on any on my turbos HOWEVER, I got my R33 GTST with 200k kms on it, with from what I can see still has the original turbo, no lateral shaft play but has about 4-5mm of play in and out which to me seems like a worn thrust bearing from years (100-150k kms?) of turbo flutter running no bov, so maybe there is some truth to it in the long run. But that'll never stop me loving the Stutututu while I have the car.   OP just wants to know if he can run a atmo vented BOV with no major issues and the answer is YES, plenty of people do it, there's no harm in installing it and seeing how it runs before spending $$$ on an aftermarket ecu, last time I bought a Nistune it was $2400 for install and a tune , unsure of todays prices but you get me. Crazy money to spend just to fix the minor inconvenience of stalling that can be overcome by letting the revs come down to near idle before putting the clutch in or a little bit of throttle to avoid it. You're better off leaving the ecu and tune for after a bigger turbo/injectors have been installed to take full advantage of the tune and get your moneys worth.   Let OP have his Whoosh sound without trying to break his bank haha
    • I see you missed the rest of the conversation where they have benefits, but nothing to do with avoiding breaking turbos, which is what the aftermarket BOV made all the fan boys, tuners, and modders believe was the only purpose for them...
    • But they do so for the other reasons to have a compressor bypass. It's in the name.
