Ruby, its probably not worth my time repeating this again, but

Meeting this Sunday afternoon at Aussie Pizza House - West trc (just up from the BP) for those whose cars will be ready for Autosalon. Time can be negotiated but I was going to suggest 1:00pm

Please come ready to plan the display, and pay your entrance fee.

Those who might have a car ready, and want to enter can you please PM me, (you will need to decide and pay by next Sunday 20th July). At this stage we only want people who are definite, and any others will be a welcomed bonus later on.

Confirmed entrants that I know off at this stage are:

Myself - 4 door 33

Craig - 33 Coupe

Aaron - aqua 32?

Shane - GTR?

I don't see where it says here you have until the 25th to pay. Autosalon need the cheque by the 25th, hence why the latest for the MAYBE's is Sunday the 20th (time for me to collect forms and money and post them off with a cheque to ensure they make it by the 25th)

At the end of the day (Sunday 13th) we didn't have 6 cars, and I hadn't had any PM's or phone calls advising that people would definitely enter but couldn't attend the meeting (This includes you)

Since joining you have posted so much BS that even now I doubt you are sure if you will or won't enter autosalon, and I wasn't prepared to put my money where your mouth is.

By all means enter your car as an individual and show us all how it should be done, but at the end of the day the car isn't up to Autosalon standard (nor were most who would enter an SAU display) and is better suited to a club display than individual entry.

this is the reason why i dont want to do any more SAU displays. cause of this nonsense. there is still time to enter but rather then really really trying to encourage people to enter, the organisers are more or less throwing their hands up in the air and going "stuff it" there wont be an sau display instead of working through it and trying to find someone else.

too much unorganisation in my eyes.

my 2 cents

who cares about the Autosalon standard? in the end a majority of those cars are made for the judges, not for/by the people who own the cars.

also in the end you do up your car they way you want it to be.........not what everyone else wants it to be (hence why my 34 is the way she is) so if ur proud of ur car then by all means go and show it off at autosalon and be proud of what you have achieved........winning a trophy isnt everything........

Im here, what do you want from me? to put the Aristo in?? Sorry already laughed at that idea before, Dan(sinista) was "whinging" also but he's in Afghan fighting "our war"!! but sorry people, you burn your bridges the first time, dont expect others to come running now when they couldnt the first time,

Wheres the 10-12 cars you had last year?? Oh same place that the "whingers" are........

Ahhh deluxe, I knew you would be lurking here.... :(

The people from last year you ask??.... Daniel, Kye and Flick have sold their cars, I will be overseas, Matt is in the Army (possibly deployed) Cara is doing individual display and I imagine Ben(grim) will do similar, which leaves PK, sambo and Shaun.

Last time was based on those that had already had their cars on display for SAU previously... and a fine job of organising was done by PK and flick.

I was asked if I would enter and said Yes, simple. My car is no show champion and I still put it in even though my trim was not finished and I had no passenger seat. I made a commitment and I stuck to it.

It seems that is becoming too difficult for some.

And No, we don't want your oversize camry for display.... I'm still laughing. :cool:

Who wants to start a thread expressing interest for next year then? :laugh: ..... 12 months might be long enough?

Peace.

PLEASE ALSO BE ADVISED THAT WE HAVE TO HAVE OUR PAYMENTS/ENTRIES IN BY JULY 25TH

OTHER WISE THE ENTRANT FEE IS DOUBLED! cost per car in club display is $90 BEFORE 25TH JULY.

obviously we will haved to budget a little higher than that, for flooring/lighting etc.

I don't see where it says here you have until the 25th to pay.

:(

      I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.

      [HOW-TO] Winter Steam-Clean & Odour Removal in 30 min

      By The Bogan · Posted

      Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 🤣, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up

      [HOW-TO] Winter Steam-Clean & Odour Removal in 30 min

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, I'm not interested in wetting the carpets, and I don't care about brown dirt/dust that lives deep in the pile or underneath. It's not like I crawl around on them in my birthday suit or eat dropped food off them (because there is never any open food in my car). The seats are alcantara (cheap Chinese imitation alcantara, to be sure!) with barely 1" of foam pad behind the surface. That's not getting wet either. Any car that I would be happy to get the interior wet, I would not care to put the effort into.

      [HOW-TO] Winter Steam-Clean & Odour Removal in 30 min

      We have one that holds 2.8L of water. On floor carpet that hasn't been touched in 2 or 3 years, will take a minimum of 2 fills of the tank to do a bedroom, and that's going AROUND the bed.   In the cruiser, I used an ENTIRE 2.8L tank, just on the front passenger footwell. But it had some fungus growing, and had been full of mud from being used as a 4WD for many years. I can do that floor again, and it will still pull mud out. However, the water now only looks dirty, not pitch black and leaving full sludge in the bottom of the tank it sucks back into. Oh, and, this is about a $1500 unit.
