A mate of mine has just asked if I could organise a few extra cars for a display at Repco Modbury.

  • Need 5 cars only. (would love a R34 and R35 GTR - these take preference)
  • Next saturday 5th June, 8am- whenever.
  • Modbury Repco - North East Road next to Bunnings.
  • Also need someone to cook a BBQ for the day
  • Feel free to promote SAU-SA

Anyone who helps out with the BBQ, or has a car on display has been promised a Trade card for large discounts at the store, and possibly some freebies from the store...

Need to know by the end of the week.

Nigel.

Dohmar R32GTR

Andrew - V35

Damo - R34

good stuff! This is what i like to hear!

BBQ, gas and cash will be provided for meat, and the club has permission to pocket the profits!

I will PM people when I get home with exact details.

thankyou all!

Fair enough. There won't be much else for display guys to do I'm assuming, so I'm happy to do it if Steve wants the weekend off

-D

Steve volunteered to come down, you guys can take turns if you want? Im sure itll get busy around the 12-2 time when the bbq is on, so help will probably be needed.

i have a sneaking suspicion if you need another car we could put a dirty 4 door in too, otherwise im happy to ask my mate with a R34 4door if he would like to put his down on display, NOTE mine would still be a WIP

Ben help for the BBQ would be greatly appreciated

Cool man, I'll bring the extras (towel, tongs etc)

Dare say my cars a work in progress too, but no doubt after a good clean it'll look better..

Its all good Dohmar, my car returns to its home next week, for the first time in nearly 6 weeks. I'll be lucky if I get time to wash it before the display!

I need to drop my parents bumper off to Glenelg early Saturday morning, so If I am late returning, Ben is the Repco staff member who will direct what is going on. (He has the blue 32 four door)

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
