thanks linton! :down: good to see some real thought put in to your post :(

as for the avatar.. it's staying ;)

:P

personally I am always a fan of the BBQ & Cruise thing as well... speaking of which, there will be one next month for our Christmas Cruise - though this is a Members Only cruise we do each year..

Everyone always says they are a lot of fun! So to all those non members, join up if you wanna come along.

i want a paintball day - a way to get to know people without the cars.

i believe that the JDMstyle tuning forum has its monthly meets that are somewhat "hosted" by companies some months. this could be something of a suggestion instead of dinners (most were weeknights so i enver went)

I'm keen for a rally day!!

And agreed...the clown should go :P

As per below amigo

The low numbers is this issue. Just not as many people make the effort to come out. About 2 years ago i used to get 20-30 people to the Great Northern for a beer n steak night, but last one i did about 3-4 months ago i think we maxed about 9 people....

Just not the #'s anymore to do monthly. Maybe 1 every 3 months may work.....

I must have missed that last social dinner. :P

Although, I hitted it up for the Texi Pre Drinks which was a really fun night.

I'd be up for something like once a month/2 months/3 months, but getting right up to north sydney on a weeknight (Unless Friday) is a big no no for me.

i agree something minus the cars is an excellent idea!

i also like the idea of more mixed club trackdays, I tend to go elsewhere for this kind of thing at the moment and I always loved the RENEW days and HSV days... you got to mix with a greater range of drivers and cars and you had a mixed of timed and untimed.

oh just out of interest, execs, how are the other club track days going, have they seen a drop off in numbers of recent time like we (appear) to have??

I think it doesn't matter what I think in the grand scheme...

but hillclimbs sound like fun, as does a rally,

I have a beat up old corolla that I love to bits but have no respect for that I could have a lot of fun cutting loose on a rally, as much as possible with a paddock basher anyway lol

paintball is awesome fun.. anything where there is something else to do.. as in... to just have a meet up with nothing to do is a) awkward and b) a tad boring when all you can really do is talk cars.

paintball, half day rally school, trailbike rides, etc.. all fun... there is a place up here that takes you through the watagans... your bike or their bikes.. up to you.. would be great fun.

that seems pretty cool! $200 to hire their bike for the day..

hmmmm :(

actually.. one thing I was meant to organise before it got too cold was a fishing/bbq day.. i have everything sorted for it.. apart from the weather..

would people be interested in that? it is in Sydney.. but for those out of sydney, it isnt too bad because you dont have to drive to sydney.. cruise for a couple hours.. then drive home.. drive to sydney, spend the day relaxing.. then drive home :(

+1 for BBQ, -1 for fishing. I dont have the patience, plus if we are eating what we catch then I hope people have an appetite for toad fish. And if 80 people come, could you imagine 80 rods casting next to one another on a windy day....that sounds hilarious, make that +1 to fishing.

id be keen to do that.. everyone bring 1 plate of food each, 1 carton of drinks and some deck chairs each and there would be enough food and drink for everyone to share, all different types of food from each corner of the globe. rather than leaving it up to 1 or 2 people to organise all the food then there not be enough or too much.

and if its a beautiful spot, on a beautiful day... there is nothing better than kicking back and soaking it up.

moar texis and driver training type of track days (like the one coming up on the 18th at OP)... oh and taxi service for those without a licence would be awesome. You get to drive someone elses' skyline for free and they get to get out of their home win-win :(

I haven't been to a texi/skidpand/track yet... as someone said not everyone can afford to trash their car/daily due to risk of ruining tyres and whatnot but for me it's a nonissue at the moment as the car's sitting in storage anyway so bring it on!

+1 for fishing type of trips .. Windsor has a nice park right accross the bridge with plenty of parking and mullet and carp are easy and fun to catch, plus the whole area is ideal for bbq/pincin/kicking a ball around ( http://maps.google.com.au/maps?f=q&sou...mp;t=h&z=18 )

Actually, that is a pretty unique and cool idea - an SAU "multicultural day."

thats how my family do gatherings... as we all eat different things now and some have kids.. its just easier to bring plate of food that you want to eat and what you want to drink.. everyone just shares each others food, or sticks to their own. there are so many different nationalities on sau that it would be a fantastic mix and give a great insight to a nations REAL cuisine.

    • Had another look at the car and I noticed the fuel pump isn't priming on ignition. I'd taken out the pump from the boot to siphon out the old fuel, so maybe I've knocked something loose or broken a wire putting things back together. Will go back with a multimeter and try to work out what's stuffed. Kinda hoping it's the pump itself thats gone so I can upgrade it
    • Yeah agreed, you can't assume that shop are they only people who ever had to work on it. It was just a guess on the mods based on how things were done back then. You can check the Air Flow Meters by the part number on their tags, they are likely either Z32 or Nismo ones (both read about the same but the Z32 one is a little larger while nismo is stock size but supports the higher airflow like a Z32). And yes, all that would get you to 450hp / 340kw To tell what is happening with the turbos, you want a photo of the tag on the core, that will say what it was made out of  (they can retain the front and rear covers to make the plumbing easier)  
    • I'm selling my personal race car. 1992 BNR32 Skyline GT-R About eight years ago the engine developed the dreaded low oil pressure problem. I removed it and found the issue. However shortly after I moved half way across the country, moved my work shop, bought a house, got married, then moved my shop again to it's permanent location for the time being. in turn I do not have the time to race this car as it should be. In turn the engine I built for this car will end up in my street car and this car I hope finds a home with someone who can use it to it's full potential. The roll bar was built by Jason Noren Fabricaiton in Pomona California to SCCA and NASA Specs. The car used to compete in redline time attack and global time attack enthusiast class. It also has a fire suppression system.  The car is with me at my workshop in Kyle Texas, USA. Shipping it is no problem, I can personally deliver the car to the port of either Houston or Los Angeles. Any other port depending on where it is may require transport but we can always work that out.   The chassis itself is rust free, rear quarters and under fenders are free of any rust so it's a very solid foundation for anyone who wishes to move forward with it. As posted and at the asking price of $20,000 USD the car includes all of the following;   All OEM Body panels, front fenders, rear bumpers etc.  OEM Nissan Projector headlamps (Pictured N1 lamps were removed) OEM Nismo Side Skirts / Extensions OEM Rear Spats  Front & Rear Subframes are installed car is full roller Rear Subframe has Cusco Camber Arms, Whiteline HICAS Elimination Front Subframe has Whiteline tension rods and whiteline Sway bars w/ endlinks.  Buddy Club N1 Coilovers All chassis wiring and engine wiring is in tact. Attessa System is fully in tact and was functional before engine removal.  BCNR33 GT-R Brembo Brakes F+R with Endless MX72 Plus Pads, DBA Rotors & Stainless Steel Brake lines Billion Racing Radiator Billion Radiator Hoses Fluidyne Engine Oil Cooler Accusump System (trunk Mounted) 5 Speed Transmission w/ Transfer Case F+R Prop-shafts Rear Differential With rear Axles.  Nismo Gauge Cluster Nismo Clutch + Flywheel   Essentially what is needed to make this car running and driving again is as follows: A working Engine, an ECU, and time to put it together. The price posted is or best offer as I am willing to remove some components to accommodate price to a certain extent. If any serious buyer wants full detailed pictures, videos, or any questions I'll be happy to answer them. I believe this car is priced to move quickly considering it's a rust free and very straight chassis but always open to fair negotiation.  I can be contacted via phone or email.

    • So...to my (and my mechanics doing the swap) surprise...the oil pan from NEO engine does not fit 100% and needs to by modified like this: It is not a huge problem but in the future i want a "proper" oil pan. So question is...what different oil pan can i get to fit without any problems and modification? Thanks! 
    • Some more info I found.  These are the last entries Yoshikiyo Fujii made on his blog before he passed away in 2009: http://blog.livedoor.jp/fujii_dynamics/ And finally this is where the workshop was situated:  https://maps.app.goo.gl/HhTPtHzt3WVcBTiEA
