i was the 1 running late although i got there with heaps of time to spare. i didnt find anyone, was going to message and ask where everyone was. i just crused like a loaner all by my self and got laughted at as i was entering the park lands, i dont know why... haha. ah well i dont think any of those non skylines like me in between them all. alrthought there was a very clean looking black r34 with led tail light a few cars infront of me. there was a nice looking r32 gtr(im 99% surem it was a gtr) following me up the hill for a bit

Why is it called SMALL Car Sunday when skylines are allowed to enter?

Small would be like hatches and mini's :)

Because when SCS started back in the day when it was actually decent, there were no skylines around and it was cars with chrome bumpers like Rotas and Corollas and Dattos! can you remember when Silvias were just starting to come in, prob not, but thats how long ago, even earlier!!

Its like when Fast Fours and Rotaries were the best thing out and now thats changed its called 4,6 and rotaries or something now isn't it??

I remember going to my first SCS at regency park, WRX'es had just hit the scene and TX3 Turbos were the shiz, along with Dattos with FJ20s. Those days were mad, inter-club tug-of-wars, sound offs, real mc's and that. SCS need to get back to their roots.

hi everyone~! i think i might be the last one to put up photos...~ pretty slow~!

I enjoyed the event as it was my first SCS and was kida fun to be one displaying car rather then just looking, although my car was pretty under preped and had nothing much to show~ :P .... and was good to meet some of SAU peaple in real life rather then just on the net. (should've hung around a bit more in the tent though.. :D )

Thanks heaps for those of you who organised everything and mad it easy for newbies like me~!

it was pretty dusty as other people said, and my car being black, i couldn't get rid of the dust... :) (thanks PK for letting me use your dust magnate.)

here are some of my pictures~!

cheers once again~!

I too remember those days.

Even awards for loudest exhaust and the like - you couldn't do thattoday, the car would never make it home.

Even then, one year the Monaro club was invited to do a display.

good work everyone who entered and to everyone who came along for support!

thanks to flick and pk for doing a fantastic job of organising, oh and thanks to flick for the sunblock, looked like a clown rather than a tomato!

I left whilst the awards were being presented, didnt get a chance to say bye to everyone!

got 1 pic of PK's wheel the whole day haha.

that would be PHUMAN's girlfriend :D

Think there will be changes for next years show if it is going to happen, venue being top of the list i reckon, oh well wait and see wat happens.

Flick - Madaz gave me your number. Munro and Cheeky were out cruising in the Beamer and were going to go to the Lacrosse club to meet up with you all - not sure if they did or not.

Howie - I would love a full res pic of the black 35 on the angle - that car looks PIMP. That is exactly what I was contemplating bringing in when I grabbed my R34 - kind of wish I had, but I would miss the power of the GT2530 :D

I'm tempted myself... perhaps in a couple years i'll trade up to a 350gt. Just love the look of them.

Btw, here's the full res picture of V35 GT8

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
