Congrats fellas & display looked great. Also, did Twoogle crack 500kw & get the low mount turbo record?

Wish we (SAU-SA) could've afforded the transportation to come up & join you guys, as we were in the invitational class. Maybe next year.

Yes 502awkw...not bad for low-mounts at 25psi.

Won the "tough as nails" trophy for toughest judged car in show.

If i wasn't in invitational class and a normal entrant would have also won...KW/litre champ, Highest 6 cyl power and Highest overall power.

now getting the car ready for Supernats at WSID on the 16th of Dec. Would love to have some SAU support there.

Big thanks to Mick and Katie from ACT for their help with the car over the weekend.

Excellent result guys and girls of SAU NSW! :P Unfortunately, I had to pull out with the a not being ready in time and work commitments added on top. But maybe next time - bigger and better allround.

Best Club Attitude is exactly that, the members' attitude as a whole as displayed to others and this is a great reflection on what SAU NSW is all about. Well done again to all involved.

RH9 was awesome aswell with the 4 NOS bottles lol....massive patches of ice on the frontmount ...damm would have been cold

the tune was the same...just played with the AFM settings a little to lean it a little in the top end (still very safe as base AFR's are 11.4-1) So going to keep it there for supernats as a consistent slower car is better to compete in than an inconsistent faster one (did that make sense?) Aiming to run around 9.90.

      Prop Shaft rebuilding Melbourne.

      I also used Knox driveshafts when I the slip yoke T56 to the 3bolted TR6060 type. I believe I was one of his first jobs as it literally changed hands when I was there, started by the old owner and finished by the new. Everyone seemed pretty great about it. So wasn't shy/seemed pretty knowledgeable when dealing with weird custom people like me.

      We used Knox Drive shafts years ago when we were doing gravel rally, good guy but I heard it had changed hands? He's got a lot of stuff and is miles cheaper than GJ and so on. He used to have a lathe setup with a MIG torch on the tool holder so he could get the uni welds just right, quite a clever guy. I just got a driveshaft done for my sequential installation and that was through Balancing Services Australia in Preston, they did the Gibson cars in the old days. New genuine CV's, billet yoke, new centre bearing and chome moly shaft was $2k.

      Thanks for sharing that mate, I've got a couple of spares on the shelf but all the unis are tight....will give old mate a shout. BTW are you sure it wasn't just a $400 paint job? Any detail of what they replaced (cut/reweld?)

      New Skyline will be RWD and manual

      By Duncan · Posted

      Yeah I saw that about the US Q50 recently, apparently it was shown to Inifiniti dealers (probably to help with their depression about the cars they can sell). Seemed like a really obvious step to me, the platforms are very similar in many ways. Even if there aren't many people who actually put the money up it should really help with image/reputation. What hasn't been clear anywhere if that is a V38 model of if they are just going to add the trans as an option in a new model year. What they did with the Z from 370z to "Z" is just weird so I'd be surprised if they released this as a V38. Great news for me to have an option; it is far from confirmed that I can get any decent track sessions through the auto so having a manual I can swap to is great.
