A missing 1 x 4 point power board.

Had the following details on the back;

Al

Skylines Aust.

0427 076490

So if anyone comes across this can you please use the details and give me a call :).

PS: JAMES you stole my thread title :D:(

Was about to start a thread for missing items and ANYONE THAT IS OUT OF POCKET WHILE CONTRIBUTING TO THE SAU STAND.

I strongly feel that one person (or a couple) should not carry the financial burden for helping the entrants at SAU. So if anyone is out of pocket please post you costs, so we can tally these up and devide the burden amounst all entrants (and donators :D).

These include:

- Missing TV remote (if this is not found, James will be held reponsible, by the rental company, to replace it)

- Missing SAU T-shirts (Hopefully we have a bunch of honest SAU members)

- Alcohol (I have been fully reinburst, but Ash and others may be out of pocket)

- Anything else that contributed to a great SAU stand.

Also... must send a thankyou to Lindsay Fox for the race-car.

Thought it might be nice to get a big print out of the photo with everyone around the R32 and all sign it? The photo that was up yesterday was great - but a little too low res. Is there a higher-quality version?

i've let j-spec know bout the return of favour for the sponsorship. this will either work out as a monetary reimbursement or payment for a future event.

    • Damn, some awesomeness in there. What is the car with the Mk2 golf front, is it a Polo?  I'm in love with the C110. 😍 Some cool grafts, like the Lancia Jimny (?).
    • Turbomachinery engineers. They're just mechanical engineers who generally studied in universities focused on oil and gas, aviation or that had a formula SAE competition team. We have an entire team of them in our engineering department... they geek out over data and performance testing. I worked with them a lot when we developed an anti surge system for centrifugal compressors ran by electrical motors (~20 000-50 000HP) to avoid surging on accidental power loss.  They laugh when I mention automotive turbochargers.... it seems they're lightyear's behind in technology due to poor funding. If you think formula 1 spends a lot of money, a single turbine/centrifugal compressor package in my line of work including the balance of plant equipment generally ranges in the 150-250Million range depending on size.   
    • The diff brace did not increase NVR at all. And yea the whole reason I thought getting the rear diff brace was a no brainer was because of the reduction in wearing the bushings out + wheel hop. It's a cheap mod for a big cost mitigation in the long run. I bought it for $99 USD + shipping. In regards to the sway bar - i had some over/understeer going on but i just checked my tires and they are pretty worn out. I wont be changing them til july since i'm away for work for a month or so. will sort it when i get back and do more testing. But its definitely still a big thumbs up from me given how planted the car feels now and me being able to go around corners quicker. Still puzzling to me why they never put a LSD into these cars....even the 400z. I saw this mob selling LSD kits for a decent price though it's a little more involved on your part to get it installed: https://www.tractionconcepts.com/Infiniti-Q60-R190-Limited-Slip-LSD-Rear-Conversion-p/tcxin9240.htm  
    • Great for thrashing on the track - particularly if it is all corners. Otherwise, it is a recipe for massive tyre wear and reduced straight line traction. -1 is plenty for a streeter.
    • There are other MAP tapping ports. There's one that runs to the boost gauge MAP sensor on the firewall (over in the corner behind the brake booster). Start at that sensor and follow the hose to the plenum.
