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 doubt that we all would get to have it for a day maybe a drive round the carpark

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 ***

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
