SAU Caps & Beanies... just made a deal, any1 want one?


Recommended Posts

Just made a deal with a manufacturer that should see us all wearing an SAU cap for about $20 each.

Its made in the same factory as ecko (the gangsta clothes label with the rhino logo) caps.

The design of the cap is as follows: Elastic base rim (no straps at the back) 12x16 cotton twill sandwich cap with curved visor.

Here are the options:

  • skylinesaustralia.com in a marquee around the base of the cap.
  • big f**koff emblem in the middle on the front
  • any other design that will fit on the cap

Please suggest some designs which I'll then implement and send to the manufacturer.

Here's the catch. We have to purchase 100 of the fvuckers coz their minimum run is 100. (theoretically 102, but they'll give it to us for the price of 100).

please vote "I will buy" if you want one. Once this tally hits 100, then I will make arrangements for payments and then place the order.

Part of the money raised will go to the running of the forums. All purchases from VIC forum goers will get a certain percentage donated to the running of the VIC club. Similar arrangements can be made for other states.

I have attached the ecko cap that they manufacture as a reference.

UPDATE

OK here's what we have so far, we have about 80 odd requests for caps and beanies, so I'll put the order in, now we have to figure out what design we want on the caps/beanies. TO keep it simple we might just go with the same design on both.

here's a mock up of the cap that I made, any improvements/suggestions will be appreciated.

ye i'd buy one.

but when u say they make a minimum run of 100 - does that 100 of exactly the same colour/design? coz then we'd all be like wearing exactly the same hat. and at a meet that'd look weird. may as well all wear uniforms.

but yeh, put me down for one.

omg... caps ppl... I'll make inquiries about beanies tho... dunno if they make em, but they make all the ecko head gear and ecko has beanies... will find out

Put me down for a cap and a beanie too!

What about using the typical "SAU" with the lights on either side. I know we have used this logo alot, but it says what we are about.

The "skylinesaustralia.com in a marquee around the base of the cap", is also a good idea.

How about getting the Model of our cars at the back of the cap. eg: 33 or R33.

This is a mad idea, thanks Funky!

Don't think we can get personalised ones for each type of ca; unfortunately it has to be one design only (otherwise I'll have to get 200). Don't know what the go with the designs for the beenie and the caps are as they're clearly gonna be 2 different things.

Here's 3 designs we have atm:

A monogram block... r34 tailights with SAU under it

A block made up of the url cut up into chunks

logotext.gif

A straight line url, probably best suited for around the base.

Any other ideas?

    • You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before
    • OK, so a bunch of trim needs to come off to get to the rear shock top mounts. Once the seat is out of the way, the plastic trim needs to come off. Remove 2 clips at the top then slide the trim towards the centre of the car to clear the lower clip Next you need to be able to lift the parcel shelf, which means you need to remove the mid dark trim around the door, and then the upper light trim above the parcel shelf. The mid trim has a clip in the middle to remove first, then lift the lowest trim off the top of the mid trim (unclips). At the top there is a hidden clip on the inner side to release first by pulling inwards, then the main clip releases by pulling the top towards the front of the car. The door seal comes off with the trim, just put them aside. The the lighter upper trim, this is easy to break to top clips so take it carefully. There is a hidden clip towards the bottom and another in the middle to release first by pulling inwards. Once they are out, there are 3 clips along the rear windscreen side of the panel that are hard to get under. This is what the rear of the panel looks like to assist:
    • Yes. Autos typically work from the speed sensor on the pinion shaft of the diff. I also think that even if you have a proper speed sensor for the bog manual in the manual box, that the signal it outputs is not compatible with the auto dash anyway. You should consult that manual (the book, not the gearbox).
    • And I just realised that that advice is slightly nonsensical for a GTR, because you need 2 of them. But it is otherwise true.
    • Having had a reasonable look at the car, I'll be able to remove the (one time) rams and retract the hinge (they are held in the down location by a tiny (m3?) sacrificial screw) which will get it physically back in shape. From there if you remove the rams you need a resistor to turn off the airbag light (as Mark said, there are plug in kits and I might go that way because its reversible). And...per all the threads on here, even if you have the resistors to turn off the airbag light, the bonnet light will stay on as it writes to the airbag computer history - that is either replace the airbag controller, reprogam the EPROM (if I can work out how), or remove the globe from the dash. Having seen how sensitive this system is, if I had my time over I'd pre-emptively remove the rams, even on a road car, because this is all a very unnecessary pain in the arse. Reminds me, time to go and have a look at the Fuga too....
