I have an idea for something that could get alot of us involved in some healthy, fun and light hearted competion...

This is just an idea but I thought that if I posted here and asked for an expression of interest that it might be something cool to do.

Ok enough dribble - Im proposing a yearly awards event that EVERYONE can enter with categories and unbias independant judges (ourselves) to vote on the best car in the ACT (and surrounding areas) in each category...

For example - If you wanted to enter your car in the "best allround R33 Gtst" category, all you would have to do is post which category you wish to enter and at least 2 pics (6 max) of your car aswell as a list of mods, performance figures (no estimations, only true tested figures) and a small rant about why you love your car (you may enter more than one category).

Then, everyone here would get the chance to vote (only once) on each car in each category that they think is the "best".

At the end of the year the Gold, Silver, Bronze and encoragement award will be announced... Keep in mind though that this is ONLY for bragging rights, there are no awards exept for if we can mabye arrange some stickers or award print outs that you can hang on your wall. Shell??

The categories would be for example-

* SAU ACT Grand Champion (most votes in all categories)

* SAU ACT Runner up Grand Champion.

* Best allround R34 GTR.

* Best allround R34 GTT.

* Best allround R34 GT.

* Best allround R33 GTR.

* Best allround R33 GTST.

* Best allround R33 GTS (incl GTS4).

* Best allround R32 GTR.

* Best allround R32 GTST (inlc GTS4).

* Best allround R32 GTS.

* Best allround R31 GT (incl GTS-R, GTS-X and Passage).

* Best allround R31 (Aus domestic market).

* Best allround Non Skyline.

(the following are for Skyline and non Skyline entrants).

* Best Paint scheme.

* Best interior.

* Best Stereo system.

* Best body kit.

* Best choice of wheels.

* Most Bling.

* JDM award (most jap spec).

* Track star award (most track spec).

* Drift king (most drift spec).

* Straight line master award (quickest 1/4 mile ET) **

* Power king (most wheel Kw's) **

* Best budget car??

* Best write off??

** (These catergories may need to be judged as separate Models eg: R32 power king, R33 power king etc.)

As I said, this is just an idea, but hey its something that eveyone can be involved in and we have a whole year to prepare!

Lets have a vote on who would like this to happen for next year...

And Shell, how would we go about getting it set up??? Hehehe :ninja:

OH YEAH! Stagea's! (Sorry Lesh)

I think that people could nominate, as long as they have the owners permission, but they would still need photo's and specs on the car, if the person who owned the car didnt want it to be "known" then it would be uncool for someone to just go posting up all the info on it.

But if we can arrange a nominations category then that would be cool too!

I'll take thats a yes from you then Jayce?

Crappiest stock R33! I need to win something! XD
pffffft I've got that one hands down... stocker rims FTW! :)

Mick- sounds great and i'll do all i can... sorry havent got a brilliant idea to get it off the ground right now though, maybe after christmas we can think about it & how to do it properly..

We'd probably need a seperate thread for each category so I might have to set up a special section or something to keep it organised...

I can do some fancy certificates for sure!

A new category then. Most totally awesome near stock silver/grey two tone R33 two door (Nothing like a monopoly!). I'm in! lol... I'll have to pull my finger out and get some money together. Hopefully by this time next year I'll have something worth entering in a few categories.

Gee, thanks for remembering me Mick...

Don't worry about 'best stagea' category, i'll be the only entrant. i'll just get thrown in with the 'best non-skyline' and give it a nudge with the cefiro's, laurel's, cima's, silvia's, fairlady's, 350's, GTi-R's, Maxima's, Pulsars, X-trails, Navara's, Patrols, Micra's & Tiida's... oh and the old datsuns.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      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

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
