I'm of the opinion that when SAU displays they display Skyline or Skyline related models.

Just think about it, does the Ferrari club allow people with other cars to become members yes, as does SAU. Do you expect a shitbox Sigma to be on display in the middle of the Ferrari's, NO.

SAU like most groups is inclusive of all, based upon a interest in the Skyline model. We should display Skylines so everyone can see the type of car they are expressing an interest in by being a "member" of SAU.

If SAU ACT wants to take a different direction and make this a generic car club, maybe we should request renaming the forum.

That is my quick summary, if others have an opposing opinion feel free to post below. What ever the group wants goes.

I think being part of SAU is not owning a skyline, ie race snooze still pops in, Existanz owns a chaser and is a great guy. It's making a mountain out of a molehill, and you try telling Existanz not to park his car there on the day :(

edit: so yeah I don't mind a few non skylines on display as long as the majority of the cars are skylines

Well I think it is a good excuse to get the cars out, so maybe have the "Timeline' concept going, then have the other 'supporters' tag on the end....

I have a rather nice 1984 MR30 hatch, one of the first EFI L24 powered skyliner, so I guess I'll be near the start of the line!

I'm pretty sure its a given that all SAU members are welcome at Wheels. We can put all the models together and non Skylines together to fit with the theme, but we're not closing doors to any SAUers.

Even Richard can bring his Pooprah if he wants!

I enjoy having all of the SAUers not just the ones that have the skylines, why should they be excluded from bringing their car? SAU is for skyline lovers not skyline owners only. We dont need discriminating "rules" at our events.

I'm wondering why this silly poll then?? :D

Maybe because people have differing opinions as you can see from the poll.

This is not about stopping anyone for attending any event, but about displaying the cars this forum is dedicated to.

I only asked those to post with differing opinions, which I welcome. Please don't infer from a few posts that everyone feels the same as you.

Off the subject but related, having been to a few motorcycle rallies when people started letting in cars, the rallies turned into camp outs for anyone that didn't feel they needed to bring a bike. The numbers initially went up, then dropped off to the point some rallies are not even running any more. The main focus the bike had been lost, it was a group of people with little in common which then turned into a small group of friends.

Is SAU a group of friends, or is it a forum dedicated to the passion of a marque of a motor car where everyone with the same interest can be friends.

Supraman will be there 2moro in the treasury carpark and then in Struggle town to support the fire fighters and the peeps affected. I prolly wont go along to Wheels and line up with the SAU crew but I may just go along to perv at whats on display (candyshop). Still missing my b!atch too much...lol.

GTR holds ma heartstrings but the Supra is a tight peice of ass to have on the side :D

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
