I haven't seen any interest or notices about this one yet. last year we had a good showing, i can't remember but i think there were about 8 or so skylines and 2 stageas. This year I propose we get more people to come, and make sure the organisers of the event know we're coming so as to get a good spot in the park. start listing your names down if you're interested or want to come.

just a question, for us to enter as a club under SAU, do we need to get permission or something for this to happen, or should we just say we're the ACT skylines club? i know some of us aren't full paying members and that makes events like this a bit harder. has anyone organised an event under SAU before in the ACT?

nah, you don't need permission... we're still a part of SAU even if you arent paid up to one of the official clubs i don't see any problems with entering as SAU-ACT.

i'd be in if my car was up to show standards.. but i might come and say gday. I might be there as part of the FPV entourage but i'll come hang out with you guys when i get sick of Fords and wanna see some real cars :D

Don't let that put you off. A lot of the cars there definetly aren't up to show standards. The front of mine is riddled with stonechips and I still put it in last year, and it got a good reaction too ;)

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
