Can someone tell me if it is or isnt the long weekend. Just trying to plan our engagment party around SAS. Sad i know. :nyaanyaa:

21st 22nd June... which long weekend are you thinking of?

S2theA2theM! says:

Matsuo Kato ...make the call says:

S2theA2theM! says:

Random question: Is there any other GTR's other than ours?

ummm...... yes......*

most likely... don't wanna get shot if your alone!

So, I'm sticking my hand up to organize the hotel stay for the weekend.

All those years entering with various clubs in my native Melbourne, Autosalon was never about taking home trophies, it was about having safe CBD parking and getting shit faced with promo gangers from the show night after night.

Any takers?

Actually I really hope I have the car ready for this as I'm pretty sure it'd be what you guys want. Probably won't have the new engine done by then but hopefully all the cosmetics will be sorted and it'll look like a really mean street/track car

OoOOoooOO i didnt realise it was at fox studios.. thought it was at homebush again!..

ok yeah.. hotel room would be good matt

If enough people are up for this, no shit i would be too... But I swear to god, I'm not ending up like last time... I actually begged a mate for a lift home at like 1PM... I left him my keys and just hoped for the best :no:

Turned out well...

Anyway... rooms... info... booze... women... These are all important points that must be addressed...

yeah i'll bring mine down...

Means ive got a short time frame for my lil mods list

Need somewhere to shack up otherwise im camping in the wagon. Need a buddy pass too.

Be an individual for once in your lives...

I think I will be taking the forms again, I'm not sure if Paul has a fax machine... and deposit the money into the SAU bank account... please put as much info on there as possible, SAU username, what event it is for etc... it's hard to keep track sometimes... and please write in the thread when you have deposited the money too :)

ok, big update to be made tomorrow, in the mean time, i need everybody's phone numbers.

Whether you choose to message or call me or PM me, it is your choice.

There are a few things i need to mention to everyone that is 110% all in for June's show.

My number is 0403 954 613.

Becareful as i rarely answer private numbers - so if you wish, leave a message and i'll get back to you.

ALL I CAN SAY NOW IS THAT I HAVE AN INSANE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE WHO WANT TO ENTER THIS SHOW!!

Nah, you would be surprised how many people we either have fall out or something like that... We had I think 3 paid entrants have to pull out... that was 2 weeks before the show I think... we still have over 2 months :)

Plans change, shit happens... no need to worry about us having a massive display yet :yes:

Just a note to all intending of being part of our display, although this seams off-putting,

ONCE THE MONEY HAS BEEN SENT IN BULK TO AUTOSALON - IF YOU PULL OUT IT WILL BE YOUR LOSS AS THE MONEY CANNOT BE REFUNDED.

I thought that was rather important!

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
