Great weekend, well done Ash for organising. I think someone should send an email to Alisa thanking her on behalf of the club (I am happy to do this Ash if you want? )

Was a very good weekend and most importantly, we didnt run dry!

Some great pics, well done Paul and Sarah :(

Great weekend, well done Ash for organising. I think someone should send an email to Alisa thanking her on behalf of the club (I am happy to do this Ash if you want? )

Its cool, i usually drop her an email after the event :)

Well, not this week as Salon is coming up and its quite busy

what a BIG weekend (well....4 days). thanks to everyone involved, really was a top effort. Plenty of SAU antics going on throughout the weekend >_<

top effort with the photo's Paul! cant believed i missed Kris in the short shorts.....

Well it looks like everyone had fun. Once again, SAU comes through with the goods and picks up a couple trophies! I don't think we've gone an AutoSalon event before without winning something.

Just goes to show that SAU is full quality and also know how to party hard!

nice display guys. :mellow: thanks very much to all the SAU Vic guys for making me welcome and opening the door and the esky for me. It was good to meet quite a few of you and enjoy some nice melbourne weather. I may have drunk a touch too much over the weekend as both troy and I were a bit shaky today, but feeling much better tonight. I'm happy to extend the red carpet to any of the guys who make a trip north. Thanks again. :laugh:

Congrats Ash for putting this all together mate, fantastic job.

All the cars looked sensational and Im sure the F1 Patrons have their SAU fill.

Thanks to Sarah and Pauly for all the great pics too, great Job.

Was great to see so many familiar faces down at the track.

Love the F1, now have to wait a whole year for their return.

KL in 17 Days but who's counting.

Well I only went on Saturday but had a fantastic time. Actually was one of the best days I've ever had!!

Hooked up with a work contact that got me full pit access and got to meet Jackie Stewart which was the main highlight. Also hanging out in the Super Aguri & Ferrari Pit's right before they went out for qualifying was a highlight, Super Aguri pit team were very laid back and stopped for a photo opp, Ferrari Pit team looked flat out the whole time as they should be. Probably spent about 40 minutes strolling around all of the pits before we were booted out as they started qualifying.

Other than that my main highlights were - Being driven around in golf buggy's, getting back to the SAU display at the end of the day and being very intoxicated (Making the Mark Webber Mask smoke and talk!) and everyone else NOT being as drunk as me.

Well done to the people from SAU for organising the autosalon display, such a good turn out!

A couple of pit photos...

Sounds like you had an awesome time.... scratch that, when I saw you, I think you were STILL in Party mode and why should'nt you be.

Pictures look awesome, they are some serious contacts you have to get SO close to all the action.

Thanks for sharing.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
