What time will you guys be at Villis till Friday night??

Anytime after 7.30pm, but a few will be there earlier (say 7pm?). We move from Vilis to the BP on West Tce (not far away) after that around 9pm. Will you be able to attend? Can I email you a copy of the draft Constitution beforehand, so you can have a read before catching up with us? :P

I've also been told that another (non-regular) meet at Vilis is planned for Sunday, if that suits your schedule better?

:P

This thread seems to go around in the same old circles - hence probably why they keep saying close it.

Hence, why I'm not answering the same questions or the same assumptions over and over ... or the bullshit unproductive posts.

Funkymonkey has been emailed a draft copy of the Constitution for comment.

Prank has not yet responded to me.

Sinful has been invited to the meet and a draft copy of the Constitution has been offered to her for proof reading beforehand.

I am working on the membership forms now, and will have those ready for discussion also at the Vilis meet this Friday.

does this thread have anything other than personal bickering in it.

maybe some criticism other than i don't like you running it might be good idea. Since when did it matter if you like the person running it or not. Never spoken to Prank before wouldn’t have a clue what he’s like but it makes no diff to me on here. You could perhaps spend your time speaking to people in the club you do like.

i gota question what benefits does becoming a club have over the current situation, from what I read (havnt scanned the entire marathon thread) cams affiliation is the only 1

What you want to know is all in the Constitution. There are many benefits, including a new one not yet introduced by any other SAU club that I know of. Want to know more? Attend the BBQ.

I'm not posting an 11 page document up on here, or a summary thereof, for all the little children to poke holes in it and whinge about how their individual needs are not catered for, when they'd never join the club anyway.

Want to read the Constitution? Want to really see what the club will be about? Then please attend the BBQ fundraiser. :)

My PM inbox is getting full, so I'm emptying it to keep up with mail concerning the club. If I miss replying to any previous messages, please bear with me, and just give me a nudge when able.

Unfortunately, some members are under the illusion that SAU SA will be under a dictatorship. Far from it. I'm simply getting the club off the ground ... even if I gotta upset some people, I don't care. The Constitution is written in such a way that no person can elect themselves to a leadership or support role. The interim committee will be the body to nominate persons for positions within the club, which will go to a vote by paid members. Therefore I've pretty much written myself out of any leadership ... I probably wouldn't have the time anyway.

The club has not even established its Club Committee yet, but still some people are saying they're not joining because of certain people they know having a hand in putting it together. Too many people getting ahead of themselves and being extremely judgemental with so little information and mostly assumptions. They can believe what they want ... they're wrong.

There are more than a handful of people now contributing to getting this club up and running, and I welcome more still.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.

      To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all

      300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
