Sau Vic 2007 Annual Show N Shine & Xmas Party - Wrap Up & Results


Recommended Posts

A fantastic day saw a great turnout to the annual SAU VIC Show N Shine and Xmas Party for 2007.

Car attendance well over the 45+ mark saw a wide range of skylines (and non skylines) for a great day of cars and people.

These days are aimed at our members showing off their cars on an autosalon outdoors style display with a free BBQ.

Located in the lovely banks of the yarra river just near alexander parade gives the club plently of exposure and onlookers.

Members enjoyed a free lunch provided by the club and were able to display their cars for voting awards and great prizes.

Those who attended were also offered discount vouchers at one of SAU VIC's selected premier workshops, so if you missed out then you missed some great deals!!!

Entry for members was free and there were no costs involved, so next year be sure you are there to be in it!!!

Prizes and Awards:

Trophies and a $240 Centreline Suspension voucher (valid for parts and labour) will be awarded for "Best in Show" in the following main categories:

• WRC class (WRX, Evo)

• Dorifto class (Silvia platform)

• Godzuki class (31, 32, 33, 34 GTS/GTT) - one each for 31, 32, 33, 34 GTS/GTT

There was a great variety of cars on display throughout the day.

It was a good day and there were plenty of nice skylines around.

I've got a few photo's but I'm sure everyone else has them too :D

Do people blank out the number plates before putting the photo's up? I don't like having my plates on public forums.

Oh, I didn't really get to meet anyone because everyone seemed to be in some sort-of group and I didn't really know anyone.

I'll have to ask my questions on the forums and email.

Does anyone know what motorsport events are coming up that are relevant to a non-CAMS licensed beginner?

Thanks to all the SAU committee for giving up their time to run the day, especially Chris on the BBQ - the Tong Master! :D those chilli sausages were tasty!

Was a nice relaxed day out in the sun, always good to catch up with the regulars. Numbers seemed less than last year.. but was great to see everyone's cars looking mint, met a few new club members as well.

I took heaappps of photos which I will post up a selection of soon. Those final inspection detailing jobs look sensational - ronin's doors were like mirrors! Catch everyone at the final meeting on Dec 18th :D

Great day, awesome group of people, and good weather; made for a fantastic BBQ/SnS. Big thanks to Min and Chris for their efforts, and the rest of the SAU committee.

Only down side: My car wasn't ready to make an appearance :D

Great day indeed. Was good to come along, join up and meet a few people. I've not long moved interstate from Newcastle NSW so its great to make new friends that also have a healthy interest for Skylines. I was a bit rude (shy?) and didn't introduce myself too much yesterday but I was the guy in the 33 GTR (Midnight purple) with the chrome work equip rims. Looking foreward to attending more events and meeting more people.

^ hey mate (daniel with the black R34), hot, hot rims!! lucky to get them with the car. If you ever want to fix em up 100%, Craig @ colorurmags.com.au (something like that) is your man :D

have fun modding your car! See Damian @ Final Inspection if you want to get it detailed :D

thanks you people for the day it was good to catch up, and meet some of the members.

as for the BBQ nice work, but damn did the chill sausages go quick....i only got one

PS. the drive way into the PARK!!!!!! i nearly lost my front bar!!!!! i had to reverse my way out when i was leaving, i saw some people looking they must of been thinking '' WTF is this guy doing"

cheers THANKS FOR THE DAY!

hey ak_stylez, will send you a voucher with your new member pack this week.. you probably left before I managed to hand them out :(

Anyone else that didn't get one on sat, send me a PM

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
