Sau Vic Stickers


Recommended Posts

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

or checkout online

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.

^^ Or sell the second set to me?

Yeah im in the same boat, wanted something to show that i'm a member of sau but not really ready for track days, car's still getting up to scratch...oh wells guess i'll just have to wait til it is

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
