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?!

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
