Hi all,

As you may or may not be aware next year (2009) will mark twenty years since the R32 GTR first rolled off the production line. So im thinking lets do something to celebrate.

The way i see it, we've got a whole year to prepare. So that gives us heaps of time to organise things like venue, dates, events, possibly guest speakers, things like that.

I rekon the style of event should be something for everyone. Possibly at a racetrack, or somewhere like DECA, where we can have on track events, show and shines, maybe trade stands and other attractions.

We could try and get certain "hero cars" to attend, e.g. gibson motorsport godzilla's. Maybe even try to get guest speakers like Jim Richards or Mark Skafe.

Im thinking BIG! something that will get coverage in things like magazines, ignition dvd etc...

I also think that an event like this will have no trouble in attracting sponsors to help out in putting this all together. And it can only do good things for the reputation of SAU.

Now i want your opinions and ideas on how we can make something like this happen.

So come on everyone, post away...

Cheers,

Matty.

brilliant idea and i think it should be at a track so you can have show and shines and stands and cruise along the track and stuff like that.

we should have it as a fundraiser so SAUVIC can buy a r35gtr and every memeber gets to have it for a day :) .

I'm not old enough to remember/know, but the GTR was known from winning races on Mount Panorama? Maybe we could organise a huge cruise up to the the mountain itself?

I don't know, just throwing ideas around.

Nah, I haven't seen any of the races which had GTRs in it to be honest. The GTRs were dominating when I was born/learning how to eat. hahaha.

** goes to youtube ***

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      I am going to chime in here and say that is very bad advice for a built motor, making decent power of 400kW+ Especially if the rings have been gapped on the looser side. The more power you make the heavier you need your oil to be to be able to maintain that suspension between the moving parts, if not you'll have journals and bearings making love and grenade a motor. Remember that all moving parts inside the motor aren't ball bearing and are journal bearings and require oil to separate the surfaces from contacting.

      ENR34 - Leaking Transfer Case

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      ENR34 manual transmission transfer cases are 33100-23U00 which is shared with all of the R32/R33 GT-Rs and GTS-4s. And the C34 Stagea. Do not bother with automatics, that is a huge effort to swap and the car will be worse for it. And an automatic transfer case does not have the right housing for the shifter which comes out the back of the transmission and goes through the transfer case. I already posted my response on reddit but if you didn't see it there here it is: You have almost certainly damaged the transfer case, the only question is how badly. Nobody can tell you how bad without more information. If you have a giant hole in the transfer case pissing out all the transfer case fluid then you need a new one. If it's not that bad then the only question is whether you burned up the clutches. Drain the transfer case oil and inspect for metal on the drain plug magnet. Small black filings are normal. Big chunks of metal or a ton of black fuzzies not so much. Fluid should be nice and red. Any other color isn't great. If the color is reasonably red and there's not a bunch of clutch material discoloring it or anything like that you probably got away with insubstantial excess wear not worth trying to fix. If you have to rebuild or replace the transfer case keep in mind you have to pull the transmission to get it off.

      Can I suggest a 15W50 oil is too heavy. Its a brand new engine - you should be able to run something like a 10W30. Shove some steel wool into your catch can  - more technically "oil/air separator" - so that the oil vapour has something to condense on.
