Hi guys,

first post here, so please feel free to let me know if I'm not wanted!

for the first time ever, MEA ACT will be running a four round series of sound off events around Canberra throughout 2009. The aim is to bring everyone interested in car sound together and see if we can get something happening in our little state! ;)

The first event will be held at:

Elite Car Sound & Vision

48 Weedon Cl

Belconnen, ACT

Sunday 15th Feb, 2009 10am

Yep, 3 weeks away! There will be 3 sound quality classes and 4 SPL classes. The idea is to make it as friendly as possible - low entry fees, fair SPL classes, trophies for winners, expert advice on how to get your system sounding better and louder, sausage sizzle, prizes and giveaways (best install, judges choice etc) and more.

Round 1 will have both an SQ and SPL competition with trophies for 1st and 2nd in each class. There may be spot prizes available throught the day too.

The classes for SPL will most likely be Street Stock 1, Street Stock 2, Street Stock 3 and Open Class. The street stock classes will be aimed at cars with a simple 1 battery system with no modifications to the car and will be dependant on the number and size of subs and amps. Anything that doesnt fit in the Street Stock classes compete in Open class. Please note this will not be a sanctioned dB Drag event.

For the Sound Quality (SQ) competition we will be running Novice, Intermediate, Expert and Show classes. Novice is limited to entrants who haven't entered a MEASQ compettion before. Intermediate is designed for more experienced entrants. Expert is designed for anyone who has modified audio gear or works in the car audio industry.

If you have a show car, we'd love to see you there!!!

Entry fees will be $25 for SQ, $10 for SPL and Novice class.

If you are keen on your car sound come down and run your car. There is currently a lack of a car audio scene in Canberra and MEAACT is on the path to fix all that, so show your support.

Thanks guys, and thanks to SAU for letting me post.

this is the first comp in a 4 round series, with a points table happening and cool prizes for the overall winner. We'll be running a grand champ prize as well over the year (ie points in both SPL and SQ, as well as the show n shine + dyno for the last event in october!!)

Let me know if you want more details, and if you could pass the message on to your crew I'd be very appreciative, as we're trying to get as many people down as possible!

thanks guys...

This was great fun guys. I learnt a lot about what I need to do to improve my stereo, and it's doesn't involve buying new parts, like I thought!

Come have a look at the next one if you couldn't make this one.

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
