Not surprise you'd write a bad review considering you intended not to like SCS in the first place therefor not giving it a chance...

For me that DID enter I found it an enjoyable day - caught up with mates from other car clubs, met people and caught up with fellow SAU-ers. Plenty of nice cars there to check out and plenty of crowd from what I could see - definitely more cars and more people than this year's AutoSalon. Got some good shots too - will have em up shortly.

SCS is not my prefference. I don't like the scissor doors and 22" Vault chrome rims on WRX's. Just my opinion mate. As I said, I enjoyed the Skylines down there and the other tough cars (Steve's S13 and PureSX 180) but, overall, it was a poor blatant copy of AJD just smaller crowds and smaller amount of cars on show. Having some tool cranking music out of his car at the show while sitting in the car giving people the "Look at me, I'm so tough" look isn't cool.

Just my opinion - there's plently others who hate/love the show. Everyone on here is entitled to their own opinion on the show. Even if I entered the show, I would have posted the exact same opinion.

Just like Autosalon - it's a love/hate show.

So all in all disapointed?? Im just sussing some pics out atm and doesn't look like to bad a turnout!!

How was the cop situation today?? No defecting of cars in the carparks or anything???

Cops on horses, cops on bikes circling Jetty road and apparently a defect station was setup just past the oval later in the day!

was that some dudes behind SAU? Yeah.. me and trdz decided to drown them out with our own bass, and they gave us a wtf look LOL

Yeah it was either those dudes or the ones next to him.. i wasn't sure who's car it was coming from. But they all turned around and gave me and trdz a death stare at the same time.. it was rather intimidating LOL

Anyhow, we showed SAU +1 for sound-offs lol

We seriously needed more cars in the display.... if we had 16 or so like we did last year then we'd literally have taken up an entire row :P

Phu's RX8 was tasty, and Bruce's widebody S15's awesome too.. but the RX7's were porn man!

Yes its your opinion - but what I was getting it was your had that opinion from the start - sure the cars/crowd may not be as much as AJD(not sure wasnt there, Tiesto cocnert in VIC ftw!) but is it SCS's fault for people going around bad mouthing the show from the start and preventing people from entering? Same with the bling bling chromies and scissors doors - not my cup of tea either but you tend to get that at any car shows and the doof doof - people do that at car shows - livens up the atmosphere.

There was still a descent amount of entrants and spectators for me to go there with an open mind as usual and make an enjoyable day out of it :P

Oh yeah, there's no doubt it wasn't a decent day out! But yeah, SCS has attracted alot of negative comments and opinions.

It's worth it for what it is, though - and that's a free display of mostly tough cars! I think it's great that there's no entry fee or anything for the spectators.

these are the pics i have collected so far of my car (on my myspace) http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?...;albumId=914159

If anyone has more, please let me know banana.gif

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • 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
