when i saw this thread i thought someone would pull the thumb out of their arse and get SAU SA organised (seeing as we have SAU VIC, NSW, WA and QLD up and running). The guys I've met in SA are an awesome bunch, and they all were keen to get something official going.

There's plenty of wankers with skylines in VIC, and we still run the club. Its inevitable that they'll join up, but when they do its in the club rules that their membership can be revoked if the committee decides that they are out of line.

That said from the posts you've made it seems that this is more about you than actually starting a club to help the guys on SAU ;) Just remember you need to be SAU SA to operate tightly with this forum. Your personal little car club of hand picked members won't cut it. It needs to be open to the public.

Anyways, this is where I butt out of this thread. Good luck.

if it was about me and my friends i wouldnt have come back on here and posted it up i would have done it outside of SAU.

No one else is doing the car club so i will and i will make it work so dont be so rude also who said i was hand picking members and who said it wasnt open to the public.

By the way im one of the SA members you met i organised the cruise to melbourne!

This is the problem with things that Kellie does, eventually she get all big headed and power crazy and starts banning people.

I agree, but having just chatted to Kel i know she was being sarcastic... I'd love to see SAU-SA get up and running... I dont think you should butt out, I think you're precisely the sort of person who needs to give us input to succeed..

The main reason she suggested a different name was to disassociate the club (aka an actual business/npo entity) from the dudes who rock around with SAU stickers and hit sideways. Its moreso a fresh start so that members can be vetted in accordance with club policy..

That said, we're having a chat about it now and will endeavour to work out the details. If we can go with SAU-SA it'd be mutually beneficial, its moreso the technicalities that need to be worked out

lol yeah i know. you were included in the people i was talking about ;)

but i reckon if you're motivated enough to start an official club, you should use the base you've already built on SAU rather make some seperate thing? strength in numbers and all that. otherwise you risk just being another one of those small groups that you see one year at autosalon, and then never again... it'd be a shame to waste all the motivation.

anyways, I'm sure when you guys sit down as a group and bash brains you'll come up with a good solution that benefits all.

Stirls man I think that was a lil uncalled for...

She's only ever banned 2 people from her cruises, and that was for a damn good reason...

IF Sau-SA has a chance to get made we need to leave all the prior baggage at the airport and fly away to the equator...

Please people, lets try and get this done.... its gonna be hard, theres going to be teething problems and yes, people are going to disagree - thats fine, as long as its done respectfully.

Kellie probably won't be running the club. She's just the one with the initiative to start the ball rolling. Ideally the club president will be elected by his/her peers. It wont be a dictatorship, thats for sure.

Positive comments will be welcome. Naysayers can direct themselves to /dev/null

lol ok that's a bit of a jump. lets keep the shit slinging to minimum.

no probs, you can hit me or any of the other SAU VIC/NSW committee for the docos and paperwork and shortcuts when we had to get our CAMS affiliation when you guys decide what to do.

you have no idea what your talking about mate i have met you once

A few times actually. The first time was when you were telling people that you know every thing about brakes rotors because you worked at Auto Bahn.

The second time was at the only one of your cruises I went on where we drove for 45 minutes and stood around in car parks waiting for 2.5 hours, where I also witnessed drivers openly drinking Alcohol.

Anyhow as with Chad i'm happy in the car club I'm in at the moment so i don;t have anything else to say in here.

Ive never seen anything wrong with a small car club. Then its more tighter, you help anyone within the club instead of forming little tight circles with the people you like, easier to organise events, keep under the radar aswell as you minimise the idiots ;)

Thanks for clarifying that. If you'd like to join once we're established, the door will still be open

EDIT - I'd just like to clarify that kellie's previous cruises were open events - she cant honestly be expected to police or be responsible for the people that came along.

i have said this already in a MSN convo i wont be president unless voted in im mearly getting the ball rolling

I'm staying clear of this, but I will be keeping an eye on this thread. Just know I don't really think it's wise or respectful if you are setting up a separate entity outside of SAU and are recruiting members for it via the SAU website. If you are planning on carrying the SAUSA banner, the first thing I'd be doing is contacting Christian (Prank) and getting his approval/blessings... just my 0.02 cents worth

I can assure you that its not the case luke. We will be SAU-SA pending Christians approval (which has been requested already).

We also have funkymonkey assisting us, and I'll be overseeing the construction of the club as impartially as possible.

The organisation will be transparent and open to all. Naturally there are loads of things to clarify now but I'm not willing to go into it until we have the blessing of the man who started this site.

Stay tuned.

    • Our Southern Highlands Cruise is proudly registered with “R U OK?” Day.  Sometimes the best way to check in on your mates is by getting out for a drive together. Sharing a common passion like cars creates the perfect space to chat, connect, and support each other.  A simple “R U OK?” can make all the difference. Let's enjoy the drive, the company, and look out for one another. PLEASE WEAR YELLOW FOR “R U OK?” DAY Sunday 14th September 2025 9:30AM Meeting Crossroads Homemaker Centre 10:00AM Cruise Departure Via Old Hume Hwy 11:45AM Arrival at Mittagong RSL Club Meet Location: Crossroads Homemaker Centre Final Destination: Mittagong RSL Club *Disclaimer* There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.
    • Yep, its been down for a while, as I understand it it will be back soon.
    • Yeah I also looked at Plazmaman, but, it ended up alot  cheaper getting black ones through EFI when you also added in the delivery cost
    • Nice shot! They look super clean. The roof rack delete on the black one is interesting. Would like to see more pictures from different angles. It's subtle but could make quite a difference to how the car looks in profile.
