As those of you who have noticed the link in my signature would already know, I'm in the business of t-shirt printing.

I've been in contact with Christian (Prank) over the last couple of weeks, discussing the possibility of producing a professionally printed Skylines Australia t-shirt.

I am aware that a few SAU t-shirts have been printed in the past for particular events, such as this year's Melbourne AutoSalon. However, as far as I know, most previous SAU t-shirt logos have been transfers - not intended to last any longer than the event itself.

The proposed SAU t-shirts will be professional printed on high quality t-shirts. Ie, these garments will be designed to last. Unfortunately, this also means we are effectively limited to one colour.

The proposed t-shirt design (rough diagram only) is as follows.

Across the back (black ink on white fabric, approx. 25cm in length):

A smaller version of this logo (without the URL) will also be printed across the front right side of the t-shirt (approx. 10-15cm in length).

Each t-shirt will sell for around $30.00. This figure includes postage (within Australia) as well as a $5.00 donation to SkylinesAustralia.com. This price is a ball-park figure only and could rise or fall slightly depending on a number of factors, such as order quantity.

So, what are your thoughts on this proposal and design? Would you be interested in purchasing a SAU t-shirt at around $30.00 (which includes a $5.00 donation to this forum)? Please express any interest and/or post any feedback/comments below.

To give you an idea of how the t-shirt will look, I have attached an image of a t-shirt previously printed by tshirttext. Obviously the colours and design will vary, but this will give you some indication. Click here.

My preferred t-shirt wholesaler does not offer female fit t-shirts, but I could look elsewhere if you really wanted one.

Failing this, have a look at this sizing chart. A lot of girls who want a tighter fit simply opt for a smaller size.

Yes, I'd like to big up SAU by wearing a t-shirt over (up?) here in Japan.... any chance of dark blue/grey for us style concious blokes?:D

Is the design final or can we have a design thread for ppl to post their own designs then vote on the best? This is what we have done for the last 3 shirts I have printed for my other forum.

Either way....put me down for one. I'm just not a huge fan of the above design...too basic.

This shouldn't be a problem. Who else would prefer white ink on dark fabric? Long sleeve t-shirts will also be available, but will incur a surcharge of around $4.00.

I've never sent a t-shirt to Japan - any idea how long it would take and/or how much it would cost?

White print on black fabric would be nice (i'd prefer it too). White shirts get dirty too easy (or maybe thats just my bad habits).

A long sleeved shirt would be perfect for events such as drag strip and trackdays.

Put me down for atleast 1 shirt regardless of what they look like.

The design is relatively simple, yes. A second colour would increase the price of the t-shirt significantly. Keeping this in mind, feel free to post your own suggestions.

The final design must be replicated in a vector graphics program (before being transferred to a printing screen), so you will have to provide any fonts, etc., that you use.

Going by EMS postal rates, it should cost 600yen, or about A$7...

If you can send them to Japan, I'll pay whatever it costs. So pencil me in for 1x Dark blue with White logo, and 1x Medium Grey with Black logo. Cheers P1E!

hey guys - that above logo was just a simple suggested one by myself. We can only have text (i think, David?) - but feel free to submit any other designs that you think might work.

Christian

I think at the back side should have some graphics more than only texts, maybe just round shapes or else. A smaller version of the logo that you said it will be printed across the front right side of the t-shirt, this font looks not too bad and the URL would be or not, it's ok both.

waitin' for the final........

    • Apologies for the long post, but needed somewhere to lay out the entire timeline of events and actions taken:   I've got an 89 GTR with a R34 RB in it. It's been running great all year, driven probably 500KM in the last month. It's not my daily driver, just a weekend fun car.    Build info: R34 RB26 - HKS 2.7 stroker kit, HKS adjustable cam gears, HKS turbo upgrades, Trust intercooler, R34 factory DENSO 440cc injectors, JUN chipped/tuned R32 ECU. All of this work was performed in Japan back in 2019.    Thursday 10/2/25 - It's a nice day and decided I'll drive it to work, I start it up in the garage and I notice it took a few extra cranks and sounded a bit funny. I figure maybe it was just because it was a pretty chilly morning. I pull it out into the driveway to warm up a bit before leaving. As I leave the driveway, it feels very off and sounds like a misfire. I pull it back in the garage to deal with after work and take the daily to work. I was able to diagnose it as a cylinder 5 misfire with the old spark plug test (unplugging each plug until a sound change with the engine running). I take off the whole ignition system, ignitor, plugs, spark. *Important note, it is still on the R32 ignition system with the separate ignitor system. I test each system with a multi-meter and nothing presents as a smoking gun. I put it all back together and it starts up no issue. I go ahead and order the PRP R35 ignition conversion kit. It should arrive today (10/13/25)   Friday 10/3/25 - Another nice day, car starts up great and drives great all day. Very pleased that everything seems to be OK   Sunday 10/5/25 - Decided I'll take it to play some golf, load up and drive to the course about 25 minutes away. Drives wonderful the whole way there, I pull in the parking lot and the engine completely comes to a stop. I do not recall if it sputtered at all, but just remember all of the sudden the engine was off. I roll it into a parking spot, try to crank it back on and nothing.  It'll crank and crank and not even try to start. End up getting it towed back to my house and push it up into the garage.    Items I have checked: Fuel in the tank Fuel Pump relay Fuel pump fuse  Spark Plugs & gap Coil packs Ignitor    I know the cylinders are getting fuel as the plugs smell like fuel after a start attempt. I tried spraying starter fluid into the manifold and cranking and not even a sputter.    I decided to do the live CAS test (removing the the CAS, ignition on and spinning the CAS stalk to see if the injectors pulse and spark is active). All of the injectors were pulsing and I have spark at the plug. The half-moon end of the CAS did seem very loose, I'm not sure how much play is supposed to be there, but it was more than I expected. There was no in/out play of the shaft, just the tip end that is pinned on had quite a bit of play.    CAS Play video   When I put the CAS back in, I stupidly did not re-time the engine. I know I need to do that tonight, however, I do not think it will start given it seemingly was not the issue. My plan is to do the PRP R35 coil kit and retime the engine at the same time.    I plan on ordering the Haltech Nexus Plug-in ECU once they are available again, but ideally would like to get this sorted before firing the parts cannon at it and potentially adding more variables.    Anything glaring that I am missing here, I'm a bit at a loss?          
    • Get it on a dyno. Get something logging Consult. Run it up and find out what is causing it.
    • Looking for a plenum for rb25 de+t neo  Not looking to push much power maybe 300kw at the wheels, is there much difference in flow for Freddy “Greddy style” compared to original Greddy or options like Proflow or Otaku garage?    I won’t be porting the de Neo head for now as I think it’ll be fine 280-300rwkw but appreciate the help and any experiences anyone has between them and any advice. Thanks  Looking at this plenum for now below 
    • engine wise almost no mods: stock ecu Greddy front mount intercooler Greddy forward facing intake w R33 TB stock fuel system, stock injectors, rail etc. Kakimoto racing hyper 3 inch exhaust system Apexi intake filter New NGK –R BCPRES (.8 gap) plugs  
    • Nice one @Pac - looks like a fair few 1600's there!
