ok guys, personall i think that it should be set up this way : a national club, with state wide 'branches' so to speak...

every year or something have a national meet, where the pres, secritary etc etc for each state attend a general meeting and stuff or something...

but everything should be generalised...

in this thread there are arguments as to why it is not viable to have a national club.

cost of travel to meeting and legal issues pertaining to insurance (as each state has different laws and requirements) makes it too hard to run it at a national level.

who is going to take time off work to fly/drive across the country for a non-profit organisation which is just a social organisation for the most part. i mean, get serious, we are not making money here so who's gonna put in the effort at a national level.

can you tell me what benifits we will have at a national level? have you spoken to a government body about this or another club that is national?

well, we have and it just isn't worth it.

one other thing to remember is that we are a national club with state chapters in all aspects aside from the legal. that is why each chapter will be called 'Skylines Australia NSW' or 'Skylines Australia VIC' etc with the same club charter and code of conduct barring some small differences due to different state laws.

by all means though, please go out and do your own research.

its not really up for discussion, simple as that, this is the ways its being done.. we have many of the admins look into this seperately and everyone has come to the same conclusion..

department of fair trading said state by state is the only realistic option, if we want to change it further down the track when we are a huge organisation we can look into it.. there are really no benefits running nationally.. if any it will create more headaches

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By JC71 · Posted

      looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
