At this stage I would like to invite the following people from the reserves list into the event.

Mark Lampard EVO

James Ward EVO 8MR

Mark Kelly R33

Andrew Dean R33 GTR

Please let me know once you see this and confirm if you can make it / can't make it.

Once I finish the event schedule and do some peliminary estimated timing, I can work out how many we can run with on the day.

Hows this list looking??

Thanks Russ. This is good to know, as I said i'm only going off what entries I do receive.

I'll have a think about what we might be able to do for next year.

Chris, as the DECA's seem to be what most members want and its limited entry,

why not implement an extremely complicated points system based on SAU event attendances? :D

Or a simple one that is listed on the SAU-VIC site. :P

The SAU events that are least popular should have most points per person in attendance alloted and popular events have low points allotted.

e.g. Go to a meeting, = 5 points

Go to Show & Shine = 2 points

etc. etc.

I know I am not on the committee etc. to suggest something but as I am standing back a bit from it all I am trying to be objective and probably wont qualify for anything. :ermm:

Interesting idea.

Firstly, I think it sounds time consuming which is something i'm definatly limited on. Secondly we never wanted DECA to become an SAU only event, because it is such a good thing. If we implimendted something like this outsiders would stand even less of a chance. I also think something like this could start a lot of aruments too.

But something to consider. Thanks Greg.

OK Event Schedule done - Will be posted tomorrow at some time. (Thanks Snowy)

Looks like we can run the day with a few more.

Do you guys want in?

Justin Marcus R33 GTST

Sam Lothringer R32 GTST

Wayne Beaumont R33 GTST

Alan King EVO 7

    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
