why in gods name was the only skylines there part of antilag???

maybe get in early for next year and get a sauwa tent set up???

I'll be there next year, whether as part of SAU or not I dunno.

P.S. Steve Jones' 34 drops a mean skid lol

ric motorvation has been really going down hill in the last few years the import scene seems more towards auto salon but hey when the car finished i may enter see if they have picked it up more

Maybe the skyliners were afraid they wouldn't be able to drop a decent skid.. afterall, that's what motorvation is all about :angry:

skylines cant lift the front end when you hit the accelerator.......

Entries for motorvation are done way more in advance than autosalon, so planning is usually around ~6 months before, so probably for next year I will get an EOI from sauwa members & if we have enough then there can be a club entry, I want to enter my car in it as well. As for this years event thinking back to that time last year there didn't seem to be too much interest, even for autosalon I expected more than what we got. Some people seem to think that there car isn't good enough or something like that, fair enough some need more but it's as a club, so showing off the range of cars is what it's about. If people are keen, they need to let everyone know!

^^ FAIL.

motorvation > autosalon. in my opinion autosalon is extremely over rated and over priced.

Reaper there are so many pros on Motorvation over Auto Salon I don't know where to begin. Actually showing your car off without it being static, camping, BYO, free dyno, driving events, all for $115 are the first things that come to mind.

We had a 491hpatw R32 GTR, R33 Vspec N1, V-Spec 2 GTR, my GTT, Dani's 'angr33', Supra and an Autech Stagea that was the crowd pleaser. Also remember the standard for Motorvation is MUCH greater than that of Auto Salon. Props to Antilag for the quality imports visually and performance wise they had on show there. Look at the time and money put into those V8s and you can see why most of those get chosen over the imports that try to enter.

It was a good weekend. Antilag party was nuts. Security stopping the supra from dropping a burnout, and everyone jumpin on security and pullin him off the car, then everyone fliipped the 4 wheeler security bike, pretty stupid but i admit i still laughed.. lol. :angry:

Orange drift ceffy ripped the meanest burnout I've seen from an import ever.

As always jap turbos were largly outnumbered. hopefully I have the R next Motorvation, it was a good weekend still.

I was the guy wearing the I Luv white girls tee at antilag party if anyone was there. I bailed after the free tequila shots. Dug my own grave. Was a train wreck for Sunday. Accidently drove home without screwing my plates back on lol woops. :(

Some pics from our stand..

its takes afair bit of work to organized everything for an event like motorvation, and as mention before you need to get your enters in early. The SAUWA committee does a great job but they do have day jobs; so its not always easy to enter every event

342Four, got you too. :wave:

Very true. Because we are all close friends in our club who entered (although we are an open club), it was easier, mind you still stressful to organise everything and come to agreements on who's chipping in for things such as booze, marquee, bbq, gas, smoke machine/strobe lights, banners, tents, food & drinks, support vehicles to bring all this stuff in, support vehicle drivers, sorting out who needs to move their cars out the way so individual cars can attend their driving event. You need to do a lot of liasing with each other to get it all sorted and organised before and during the event, and I think if SAU was to do something like this, I'd imagine it to be really hard to pull off, not saying that it's not possible, just hard. Michael I'm sure you get what I mean. :)

And here's a video of that bombed Cefiro dropping a burnout. That's Michael's V Spec N1 in front of me with a rooted ATESSA, 2wd action. :D

I thought I had Steve Jones' 34 dropping the huge skid on video but I must have been a douche when filming as it's not there :)

I do have the fight that happened during the burnout comp and VERY clear footage of the stubby bouncing of a guys head! lol

Dude, are you a member of SAUWA ?

We've organised a MV for SAUWA before, almost no interest, therefore we didn't bother this year.

If the members want it then we will happily organise it, however alot of people talk about it but when it comes down to it pull-out at the last minute. Why didn't you speak up earilier (like 6months ago) if you wanted to be in MV 2009 with SAUWA ?

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
