Hi Guys, as part of the Sydney Aviation Model Show there is a car display component this year. For the first time the car display is housed in an aircraft hangar ( 1 of 2 hangars utilised for the show). The car display has been attempted in the past but has not gone ahead, with more time to plan and organise the show it will definetly be held this year and it will be a major part of the show!

If you think your CAR stands out please contact me and enter it as a display at the show, there are prizes to be won by entering and you also get free entry to the show.

Bookings are essential as space is very limited.

The show is not specific to Skylines and there will be other makes on display.

A picture of your car is required and is at the discretion of organisers to accept your entry.

All cars will be out of reach and behind barriers whilst on display.

Advertising of sponsors and businesses is allowed with organisers approval.

The show will be held 14-15 May 2011 at Bankstown Airport.

9am - 4pm both days.

In addition to the car display there will also be aircraft on display, jet car dump and burn display, aviation models and memorabilia, RC aircraft, scenic flights, adventure flights (Fighter Jet) and much more!

email: [email protected] with subject CAR DISPLAY for more info!

Can't say right now Danny. Should have the new car soon > and then take into account mods + what's on the SAU calendar + trip from Blue Mtns to Bankstown.

Will let you know...

Thats cool mate, be in touch when you know! ;)

Not to be negative at all; I don't understand the link between planes and cars? Unless we race them?

*scratches head*

Not negative at all, there are plenty of joint aviation and car shows going around...

Helps create a broader interest in the show!

Oh and unfortunetly no racing... hehe

The fighter jet on display at the show does 0-200km/h in 6 secs and is available for adventure flights... ;)

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
