Few things - random order, gotta be brief, not much time spare atm. so not being rude - just answering fast

1. You cannot get club stickers, unless you are a member.

That is part of the deal. Membership = stickers. No membership = no sticker.

2. You do not get new stickers each year. If you need new ones, members can email and get som

[email protected]

or checkout online

www.sauvic.com.au (scroll to merch)

3. Ash-s13 - i saw your email, Bec forwarded it on the other day. She is absolutely flat out at the moment preparing club trophies. You will just have to be patient as they take priority above anything from the general forum unfortunately as they are critical to club end of year proceedings.

Unfortunately committee is not a full time paying job - we have our own lives to manage first on top of club stuff :laugh:

It would be a nice inclusion to receive a couple of new SAU vic stickers with a yearly membership renewal.. they don't cost much.

True, I agree, but on the other hand the stickers aren't much, put the payment through with the renewal. Membership prices have stayed the same for a while IIRC, So they club has to cover costs from somewhere.

My opinion. If I have bought a new car and need new stickers, surely $5 on top of a new car isn't going to kill me.

Do you honestly need stickers every year?

If we did that, honestly, renewal would go up in price. As we said @ the AGM (i notice you were not there :blink:)... And Ryan has already alluded too (he was there :D)

We are trying out best to keep costs the same. 5 years has seen no increase, yet everything around us is costing more each year.

To do stickers each year would unquestionably alter that standing... and for the most part I'm not sure overall, that all members would receive that well.

The stickers are not cheap ones as far as stickers go, so they do last 3-4 years without much of a worry (hence we get good ones to start).

I mean yeah look some people change cars often, love fresh stuff etc - but the golden question - does the majority? :D

Lol I don't really care that much Ash... just a thought. I had other plans the night of the AGM, but stickers is not something i would even bother mentioning if i was there. It is good to see the membership renewal fees have not increased.

Btw, I'm not questioning the quality of the stickers, but they cost less than $2 in materials to buy at volume, so you can't say they would break the SAU budget dude :blink:

Oh not saying you were - was just making a general statement in relation to member fee's going up if we did that.

$2 perhaps, but that is $2 per year. $2 x 300+ = $600+/yr we need to find. So over 5 years... 3k :blink:

That without question is higher membership fee's, so ye, they actually would. Anything extra would.

Rossco - treasurer has wanted to up Mship fee's last year, however im trying to hold him off :D

lol i know - its just what he does - but i do what i do to... argue with him :blink:

Ye i think our Finances are exceptionally well managed for our size.

We are also in a good spot to hopefully run our own track day next year provided the stars align for us (lots of consideration)...

Only good financial planning the past years has allowed this so it's not about to change :D

Ash - I did respond to your email, here's another copy for you:

Subject: Re: Order

Hi Ash,

I do not have record of you being a current member, so I am unable to sell you item No.1.

If you are still interested, I can sell you the URL and the Lanyard.

There is also a $5 postage and handling fee. So your total order cost would be $15.

Alternatively, you could come along to the next general meeting at Bell's Hotel on Tuesday 15 December to collect the items and not incur the postage fee.

Let me know what you would like to do.

If you want to go ahead, I will provide you with our bank details.

Cheers,

Bec

membership gives you access to CAMS license as well, PI and Sandown :)

Yep guys all good, I didn't realise you needed to be a paying member of sauvic. I only thought you had to be on sau. Will sign up then :huh:

And not support SAU-VIC?

There has not been a track day i have wanted/been able to go to or any cruise so should i just pay my membership just to get stickers so other forum members know im a member of the sau forum?

Especially now that my car is off the road and most likely wont be used again for around 12 months?

Once the car is up to scratch i will join sau vic but untill then i just wanted something to show that im a member on sau, i even bought 2 sets and will be putting the second set on the fairlane that i will be driving for the next 12 months.

      7 Speed Auto transmission fluid change (Skyline, Q50, Q60, Fuga, Q70, A62 Titan and probably heaps of others including Navara...)

      By Duncan · Posted

      I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.

      By Duncan · Posted

      our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.

      By MissMintyR33 · Posted

      Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan.
