how come we have so many skyline owners on this forum, but only about 30 regulars who come around to events, if that ? not everyone is working or busy are they ? got time to sit online for days on end? be nice to see a massive turn out for a change,

at least we had 16 cars and a few other lines from others floating around

Thats the million dollar question that has been asked for so long now.

Quoting one of my favourite movies: "Many people talk alot ... few are up for the moment!"

If ya know what movie that quote is from, give me the next line :O

also remembering that the first 200 cars also recieve entrant plaques so best to be in early

i understand by reading this thred that you guys are not keen on commodores im just a bit dissapointed

that you guys slag them off its your choice i know

but they did put in as much effort as you guys to pull all those cars together on the day

looks like some wires have been crossed there were a few commodore clubs there it was the bigger one that won top club as for the top new age bike he isnt part of our OFF YA ROCKER team at all

anyway that said you guys did put on a great display and the pic's of the after photo shoot look great

I like shows but I hate the costs associated with getting the car entered and ready

Besides, mines hardly in any condition for display at the moment

Its like the opposite of peanut butter and jelly, the two will never get along.

Dont get me wrong, there are a lot of people on SAU who respect a well built car, regardless of make, but there are also some commodore drivers who have no time for imports and have shown as as much or even more disrespect.

As Damo said, most members here respect a well built car. The problem we have is with the RCK group ... who are well known for their hoon behaviour. They've crashed our cruises on more than one occasion, so we do not favour them much.

well done thanks for your support

we hope to see you all and maybe more next year 2 defend that trophy of yours and maybe even go 1 better

Was a pleasure and a good day. We'll be back ... we have a few ideas we want to go crazy with :D

True. Its all about the cars.

Rest assured this forum has a newer, unforgiving bunch of Moderators who will keep us in line. :D Whilst we can't all control the discussions in this forum, rules are being enforced more and more. We do have our share of keyboard warriors, but a majority of us are enthusiasts who attend shows/cruises and generally support the import scene as a whole. A few of us go above and beyond the call of duty too when required ... so congrats again to Cara for organising our club display ... Miss New Age :D

Even us import owners had to drool over alot of the cars on Saturday. I even did the rounds 3 times ... the quality of cars was that good. Those that took home trophys were well deserved. :D I'd just wished I'd nagged my girl's brother more to enter his 350 chev HR Holden "family car" ... his is mint!

i 4got to mention i have two boys 14 and 12 i did give them the camera and said go take some pics of the cars

just going through them looks like you guys have turned them away from me trying to get them into old holdens they both want skylines now :D

And a job well done SAU :D

Now we've made your job harder keeping them from the Dark Side :D

It is a two way street however, and after seeing some of the old school machines on Saturday, I'm keen for another project ... V8 Torry anyone? I miss my old 250 Cortina, 263 Centura, V8 XM Falcon. Well, after my house extension is done first. :D

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By Black_CSR · Posted

      Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
