Dont bother! spent $34 entry fee for me and the missus and it was terrible, saw about 30 cars in the car park and that was it. THe advertising and the promotion of the event was poor.

TO the organisers of this event (who i have met before and will still continue to reserve my judgement), you should feel ashamed charging people $17 entry and not too mention the fee for people to put their cars in the show, besides a couple of ads on the radio this was not promoted well nor was there enough cars or events to justify the price.

For the shops who have paid for advertising space, unless if tomorrow it at least 400x busier how it was today I would be asking for a refund due to lack of contractal obligations being met.

I am not one to rant and rave and you are more than welcome to go through my 1000+ posts to see wheather i have or not in the past, for those of you who know me it is out of character to be harping on but the show was an embarrasement to the car scene. Sundays generally do get busier but with the lack of...... EVERYTHING I wish the organisers the best of luck for tomorrow.

I hope i have given sufficient reasons as to how dissapointed I am, coming from being in the scene for the past 10+ years due to my brother aswell, I am easily recognising this as the worst show I have been to.

Ruccis RX7 is absolutely beautiful and has done a great job of that, all in all there was about 5 standout cars all of whom I have seen in the car shows for the past 3 plus years. there are some great up and commers there aswell. If i counted correctly probably would have seen about 40 cars there in TOTAL! I would see more talent in freo or Scarborough.

Sorry for the negative feedback but it must be given as it was a very sad day for me and for the import industry if events that useed to be as big as PAS are done in a last minute tacky approach to get as much money in the organisers pockets from punters and car lovers there will no longer be a car scene at all. /end rant

on a lighter note was good seeing some of the boys though, Jash, Tj, Rucci, great seein yas again!

i would have to disagree with the rx7 i found it foolish.

to me only an idiot would have a tv built into the bonnet of the car so personally to me it was a complete waste of what could have been a very nice rx 7

sorry but in first post i should have mentioned the drifters had a display as well.

and the chosen few display i was most unimpressed with .allowing cars with yellow stickers on them to enter doesnt show their club in a good image

Its an award winning show car, what did you expect? P.S the owner is not an idiot, but a long time supporter of the extreme show car scene in Perth. Surely you dont expect a 700hp stock looking GTR to win major awards do you?

Its a modified car show, therefore usually the most modified car there is what attracts attention and wins the awards as seen over east in pretty much all of their Autosalon events. I too would prefer a tough looking street car but they will never be major award winners.

This event was absolutely sh*thouse, to the organisers, dont bother with it next year if the bar isnt going to be raised. I thought the only good thing from the show was the SilviaWA cars, some nice rides there, and of course [LE RX7], good to see an extreme show car on the scene in Perth again.

On the Chosen Few stand? Yeah, looked OK, though a black carbon bonnet would look much better. either that or a black paint job with the white carbon bonnet :)

Its a mates car from work....he's always looking for feedback on it....well, actually I always just give him feedback on it like it or not :)

Just quietly I reckon it looks pretty good...one of the best 33 GTS-Ts in Perth for sure.....although I never tell him that :huh:

I really liked the body styling (kit/bobtail wing etc), just not a fan of the colour of the bonnet. Good to see a R33 there, was the only 1 I think, which must be a first for an import orientated car show. there were a couple of Imports101 R32 GTRs there, with the bonnet down and no spec sheets unfortunately.

My 32 & Drift WA were there too! :)

I was dissapointed, especially after the effort i put in to get my car there in time. And they were ringing around to get more cars to enter -FREE- (free entry?! While most of us paid $70 to enter) because they didn't have enough cars! I feel sorry for anyone who had to pay to get in or entered their car :)

And what's with changing the judging rules because "one car (deservingly) would have won the awards for that class" when most of the other winners who got one trophy, got up to something like 5 more?!

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
