Well the 2011 Committee has been decided.

As you all know it has been a big year with both the President and Vice president stepping down, both leaving big shoes to fill.

Before I continue with the thread I would like to say thank you to Ash and Bec on behalf of SAU-Vic. You guys have done so much to make this club what it is, and without your leadership over the past few years it would not be 1/10th of the amazing club that we have today. The amount of time and effort invested at your own expense has been phenomenal to say the least, and well above the call of duty. You guys are more appreciated by the club than you will ever know, and the fact that your roles have been basically uncontested of late stands testament to this. You both truly did an amazing job!

So, without further ado, your 2011 Executive committee:

President - Hamish Hampton (joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo)

Vice President - To be voted at next meeting

Tresurer - Ross Brown - (PurpleR32)

Secratary - Daniel Hall (halle)

As you can see we still need a VP, but we have a brilliant candidate that can be announced and formalised at the next club meeting.

General Committee will be announced shortly, but any expressions of interest can also be posted in this thread. Don't be shy guys, If you think you may have something to offer the club, then you most probably do!

As the new president I will endeavor keep this club as brilliant as it is, with no interruptions to the day to day running, and also to take it in some new directions that will see us through many more years as Australia's best car club. I have some HUGE shoes to fill! Watch this space!

Cheers

Hamish Hampton

Sau-Vic President

Congrats on the role and thanks goes to Ash, Bec and the many others who filled the positions over many many years. A long deserving break is in order for you all! Make sure to fill the free slot in your days with lots of beer :cheers:

      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.
