Ok, so im stealing this idea from the r31 club, an idea which has been successful a few years running. They basically do a Calendar each year with members cars from around Australia, and cost bout $15-$20 per calendar.

So throwing the idea to you guys here, I would be keen to do something like this for SAU members - SA only though. Im gonna suss out a few places tommorow for printing, but if theres enough interest from people here, I will get you to submit photos and I will go from there.. It will cost probly no more than $20 per calendar im pretty sure, which is about what any other calendars sell for in retail shops anyway, but with our SA cars in it.

What yas think?

Yeah, pics alread taken, or what ever people want to submit to me. Once i got more details, Ill get people to start emailing me photos they would like to submit, and Once I have a fair few, Ill take them to the printer and come up with a design.

Once its in production / when I have a price, Ill get people to put a deposit, or pay in full even to order their copy.

Stay tuned! :laugh:

u should put up say 24 pics and get ppl to vote the 12 with the most votes could be put on the calender that way theres no bitching that someones car isnt on there and its the peoples choice

just my 2cents

yeah keep that crap drty2 1 off there, i wouldnt wipe my rear end with pic of that thing.

ive got pics of mine on air race track :laugh: also charmainy has some funky pics

charmaine, I might take you up on the offer of using some of your pics. Would be cool to have maybe a few group shots, like from cruises etc aswell. But ALL photos will be considered that everyone has taken, want to make it fair and have a wide variety of shots.

Kye, good idea but ive got a few ideas on the go, will run it by everyone after ive spoken to a few printing places.

Submit all photos to my email [email protected]

Try make them fairly hgh res if possible and decent size, will be easier to work with, but send me what ever you want, and how ever many you want - of individual shots, group/cruise shots etc.

I will try include as many as I can.. my main idea at the moment is that each month will feature a single car as the main pic, with smaller pics of others down the bottom (thats how the 31 club did it), and maybe one month of a big collage of cars.

But yeh, will run the drafts past you before printing :laugh:

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
