some useful information i received via email today

Just a couple of points I want everyone to be aware of this year relating to entries being submitted:

1. Photo's are required. Please send via email and include your details.

2. All entrants including clubs MUST have flooring to be eligible for judging.

3. All entrants must be registered and in the show by 10:00pm when lockdown will occur and disqualifications may apply after this time.

4. No private competitor regardless of being in Pro or Expert Class is allowed to actively promote a business by way of printed material, regardless of what sponsorship deals they have. In order to promote a business, either the competitor on behalf of the business or the business itself, will have to reach a trade agreement with Auto Salon.

Just quietly Craig, it doesnt just double, it goes to about $250 ish per person instead of $80. That info is from the Autosalon application form

$250 :D f**k! For $80, I might be keen to enter the Stagea ... but not $250. What are the other 'hidden' extras?

So those with (for example) a BoostWorx sticker on the back window are not allowed? Thats a bit harsh.

sulking id say.

he said '' you can find someone else for A.S, cos im out'' during that whole ''ban'' thingy

so i did. and guess what, IT LOOKS 10 X BETTER!

Figures :)

it says printed material. so you could have said stickers on your car, but no business flyers

im sure they would be more understanding with ''tuned by'' stickers. well i hope so any way!

ruby, would be good to have the stag in there!

the only hidden costs will be flooring etc when devided by 7 of us = f**k all.

if it was specifically for flyers then it should have said that, however it is saying printed material, which can mean stickers, business cards, flyers, banners etc.

as it does not specify exactly what printed material is then we can only assume it includes any sort of printed material as mentioned above.

Hmm, reckon I could have the $80 before the 25th deadline.

Biggest problem is I got a trip interstate coming up and I'm swapping my Days kit for a Dolphin kit. If it doesn't fit just right (FMIC and all) and doesn't get colour matched quickly, the Stagea won't be presentable for the show.

Take me in as a very serious "maybe". So where do I get the application form from? I'm sure its been said, but I'm feeling lazy tonight. :P

DUE TO LACK OF COMMITTMENT, INTEREST AND PEOPLE PULLING OUT,

THIS YEARS SAU DISPLAY AT AUTOSALON

HAS BEEN CANCELLED.

IT HAS BEEN LEFT TO LATE

WITH THE AMOUNT OF WORK THAT STILL HAS TO BE DONE

TO MAKE A DECENT DISPLAY.

THIS WAS A COMBINED DECISION BY THE ORGANISERS.

SORRY TO ALL THAT WHERE LOOKING FORWORD TO IT.

    • Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.
    • From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢 
    • Remember this is 1988 tech.
    • Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.    
    • heh, aint no R32 ever meeting modern targa cage rules unless the driver is veeeery short OP, good luck with the sale, since its already in the land of freedom I'm sure you will find a good buyer.
