I can finally confirm the Show'n'Shine is ready to rock and roll.

It has been on the event Calendar for a couple of months, however final confirmation was only just received.

Date: Sat 21st Nov

Time:

Move in 9am-10am

Move out 3pm-4pm

This will be a static car display. You cannot come in later then specified, or leave earlier than specified.

Your car must be on display, and stationary for the duration of the Show'n'Shine due to the nature of the area and public safety requirements.

Location: Waterfront City, Docklands

Entry is via Pearl River Road - refer to map below for details, "X" marks the spot where Marshals for the event will be waiting @ 9am

There is a Tram Stop right out the front as well, Route 30 or 48

Car Limit: A limit of 80 cars is the MAX for this event. Should we run out of room sooner (due to larger cars), we will have to close the gates.

Obviously, Members only. Anyone from the public is more than welcome to come along and checkout the display, however you will not be allowed to enter your car.

How To Enter:

Upon entry onto the grounds you will be greeted by one of our Committee members and given directions.

If you wish to have your car in the Show N Shine and be eligible for voting you must notify our team.

You will be given a "Vote for me" sheet to place on your car with your details upon arriving.

Prizes and Awards:

Trophies will be awarded for "Best in Show" in the following main categories:

• Godzilla class (32, 33, 34 GT-R, one for each) & Best overall GTR

• Godzuki class (31, 32, 33, 34 GTS/GTT one for each) & Best overall GTS/GTT

• WRC class (WRX, Evo)

• Dorifto class (Silvia platform)

• Intruder class (other)

Use of facilities:

The following must be adhered to by all Members attending the day

- Strictly walking pace for cars, hazard lights ON at all times whilst in motion.

- No loud engine revving, starting of engines once stationary, silly compressor nuisance noises.

- No unwanted behaviour on (or when leaving) the park grounds.

- No dumping of rubbish.

IF members do not adhere to the above rules, Committee may ask you to leave. Keep in mind the club will be in the public spotlight and stupidity will not be tolerated.

Other Info:

- Bring whatever you may require for the duration, seats, hats etc. There is no leaving once you are in position until the end time of the show.

- The Piazza has PLENTY of food/beverage stores around, you will not need to go far for any requirements there.

- And issues on the day, see the people in Hi-Vis vests immediately.

Apologies for the late notice, I've only been advised of this

All cars must be Road Registered. So no towing race cars without some sort of rego.

Any questions please post up - see everyone there.

Cheers

Ash

Also guys, this is an absolutely fantastic location...it's right in the middle of the shops/restaurants, so rest assured we will be receiving ALOT of attention from the public :)

There is no "signups" as such guys, its a case of whoever the first 80 are there, get in.

That said, we've never had 80 cars to a S'n'S in any year, thus far.

Closest we have come to 80 was in 2006 @ Birrung Mar. We had approx 65 form my rough counting of a photo.

So allowing for a bit of club growth, few more cars etc, the 80 'cap' should get everyone in is what i am hoping for here.

I just have to cap it due to space issues as i cannot use the entire pier due to restrictions of the venue chosen this year.

Not much notice, but I will try and get the R ready ;)

It's been on the Events Calendar for nearly 2 months now :)

So there has been plenty of notice. This is just the "details" thread.

You don't need details to lock a date into your calendar and/or get prepared do you? :D

I urge everyone to check the calendar regularly! I was unable to announce sooner due to a few issues with the venue/contacts etc.

Best i could do this time, ideally i would have had it up 2 weeks ago with further details.

I also announce things when i can @ General Meetings - pity attendance has been... 'lacking' of late :bunny:

LOL Ash brings out the claws. It's true though guys, if you come to general meetings more often / print out the calendar then you will have all the notice you need.

Ash are you going to put down the list of attendance somewhere in this thread?

We have a committee meeting tonight - so i will bring that up.

Being you'll need to be a paying member to be covered by insurance, non-members won't be able to get out onto the Pier, we won't be letting anyone without a membership to move/enter a car.

In.

Just as long as the car is there it is entered correct?

Reason I ask is I may not be bringing the car down personally.

should be plenty of spectating paying members to drive your car in. fits within the guidelines. (as your a member also)

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
