Cost : $20/car

Because of the venue, places are limited this year and pre-registration is essential.

Looks like they're going the All Japan Day route and not promoting club displays (bit of a shame really) but doesn't stop us from all entering.

Just gave them a call, you can display as a club if you all rock up on time, but no banners etc can be staked into the ground. Basically there wont be much room between cars, so clubs will have to rock up together to be together. Payment must be made on the day, but pre-registration is essential, the reserve holds 250 cars. 3 trophies only, 1st 2nd and 3rd, and a peoples choice award will be given.

I think the whole scene has changed - used to be the big adelaide clubs that'd enter scs (peaks, iblis, plat, etc) but they're now almost all gone. SCS has always been about the clubs.. and doing the friendly inter-club thing.

Anywayz.. i've got my form in. We should organise a pre-meet before we enter I think.

Meet at the SAU clubrooms = Vilis on friday nights ;)

Geez 1 month notice aint too long! I've found SCS in previous years to pretty good and laid back compared with autosalon - more cars, more car clubs, cheaper entry fees for spectators and those entering their cars... more focused towards car clubs coming together I guess?

But yeah, I'm in - car just came out of the panel beaters today looking schmicker than ever :P

So, lets gather a list of entrants up:

Last year was pretty good, our display looked pretty good and it was a fun day just hangin out with everyone. We were lucky we werent next to the sprinklers when they went off - that was bad, but funny. Poor people whos boots and tents etc got soaked.

Yeh SCS isnt like it use to be years ago, but would still be good to see a display...

    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
    • One way of putting the fuel surge idea to rest, is that even when in neutral/clutch in or free revving it still has the same issue, it can’t even get to limiter (7800) so to me that says it can’t be g force, I’m not trying to argue I just want to find the f&$king issue 😡
