Hi guys,

This is a message for anyone bemoaning the passing of Auto Salon (let's face it, AJD isn't to everyone's tastes!)

Geof from the Extreme Auto Expo has asked me to spread the word. Extreme is a show for any cool car, old or new, including tough Japanese cars too. With no Autosalon, Extreme is now the only indoor show to show off your car. The organisers are keen to get some more Japanese cars involved this year, so get in there and make it happen.

There are heaps of trophies & prizes up for grabs in both parts of the show. There's the indoor show which goes for 2 days, Saturday & Sunday & there's also a "Show N Shine" on the Sunday for guys that want to drive their car on Saturday night but show it off on Sunday.

For more info, go to www.extremeautoexpo.com.au or call Geof on 0410 356 356. His email is [email protected].

I'd love to enter but my mountain of goodies wont self install...lol

next year for sure if it doesnt conflict with the car headng to SEMA

Some boat as you id love to enter but the car is playing silly buggas.

Plus it requires more money i didn't really want to spend on boring stuff :domokun:

I really think you need do a Nissan Cube SPL car, Troy...

No what I need is a 2011 R35 black edition. with a boat load of mods . and retire the R34 to shows, etc

but a late model supra RZ would be another choice

Kept looking here to see if SAU were doing a display but didn't see anything so my car's in with S.A.F.E. car club, keen to meet some SAUer's haven't met though considering the last SAU thing I went to was @ Mawson Lakes pub with Flick & PKBlade...

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
