It's more about the "passion for all things motorsport", including car shows, drag racing, rally, drifting, etc , If you don't like it don't attend it. but to kill off yet another part of car culture is another Notch in favour of governments who want to shut it all down. and make you all drive white base model camry

stop bad mouthing everything that doesn't fit your agenda, alienating current or future club members in the process ????

enormous amount's of money spent on cars stimulates this economy.... SA benefits locally and Australian business owners alike.

not sure what the Best Club Attitude award criteria was but ? you won anyway.

good to catch up with a bunch of you , looking forward to future shows, nationals, kadina, EHP, Riverlands,etc.

well done guys. was a fantastic display. good to see all that effort was rewarded with a trophy.

good to catch up with everyone that i talked to. will be seeing u all soon at up coming events

Congrats to everyone who entered and on winning the Best Club Attitude trophy. I think that says a lot about the leadership and members of SAU:SA and those of you who contributed in anyway to the display at Autosalon should be proud.

Whilst I have never entered a car show I can appreciate the time, effort and money that goes into presenting a car for something like Autosalon. Just getting each car clean enough is something that I respect. Well done guys.

No reason why yours isnt show worthy :worship: Should come to a rural show (hint hint)

Well done guys on the award! Cars look sweet as always! What number did you pull James? Were there any MASSIVE number dyno cars there?

I think Autosalon have to rethink the insanely exorbitant cost of putting your car in their show - it is highway robbery. Not only do we spend tons of $$ and time on cleaning, travelling, polishing, setting up etc, but then they want us to fork out 100s of $$ to enter our cars in a show that they CHARGE people to come see .... imho if they reduced the entry price to a less insane level they would get far more entrants and spectators alike, and generate more overall cash long-term. /my 2c

from the looks of the video that was posted in the youtube thread, Mr VLT made 577kw at the wheels... he was aiming for 600 tho

of course there were some 14 yr olds being interviewed...

"How much power can you make" "Well around 1000hp but I've detuned it to 700hp..."

twits

If i remember correctly that was Lucas (CESAR) talking about.....apparently he has cranked the 1000rwkw mark and had it detuned to 700 rwkw for some reason

Yeah that was the owner they interviewed. The others were just a joke as you could tell they were like 12 lol.

my bad- maybe his ride actually does have that kinda power (impressive but unless it was on the dyno id remain skeptical - did they publish dyno results anywhere?)

nfi why they interview the kids, tho the one with the breaking voice - that cracked me up

didnt see SAU in that video - kinda disappointing

-D

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
