problem with sa car scene is its too full of big headed wankers, which makes things like SCS fail, because everyone takes the attitude of 'rice this, autosalon that'. if you dont have the right offset then how can you be in a car show?

SCS is(was) a good thing for Adelaide, admit it, any car show in Adelaide is a good thing and can only help the scene, the people in the scene is what lets it down.

Thats so true. Everyones bagging out each other's car whinging about this that etc... people were complaining about the car scene dieing in Adelaide earlier this year and when something like this comes up everyone whinges about this and that AGAIN! Its not the organizer's fault that the car show is dieing more and more every year - its because everyone goes around bagging out the show and the cars; in turn making people less incline to want to go or want to enter! Its up to the car enthusiast community to provide the cars for the show AND attend aswell as spreading the words about it... NOT have the attitude of "oh my cars too good for SCS I'm not putting my car in that rah rah rah" + "oh I'm not going to SCS its crap compared with rah rah rah" + "Everyone dont waste your time at SCS its rubbish rah rah rah"...

I'm not pointing this specifically at anyone but more in general theres just too much bad mouthing this and that... wheres the love!?

i agree its most peoples attitide that wreck a good car show atmosphere,

but hey, its the way it going to be.....

thats the world today.

i never got to experience the car culture before it turned sour, hell, i have NEVER had the opportunity

to run any of my cars down the drag strip...

is this the way our kids are going to enjoy there cars?

this seems like the new school mentallity

^^ agree with the comments posted above.

20 bucks for a day out at glenelg, then if you get bored you can go for a drink or swim, and not get sunburnt or couped up in a tent like previous years, plus you get to hang out with your club buddies and check out the other clubs... i don't see any downsides to this event. It should be as good as AJD, if not better.

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox !
