All I know is that last deca everything felt right for me, SO I'm happy either way.

Courses are improving everytime. Mini Wang was more fun than I thought all in all excellent work guys.

All in all great day

Just a suggestion, why don't the organisers hold off on these results till the Awards night.

No doubt the winners of the day are already attending and it will also mean that the overall trophies will be a surprise for most (well some of them at least!!)

How do people know if they need to come along to pickup something? :)

Bit harsh to "make" people come just to find out.

Plus if we don't let people know, then we end up having to post/send out trophies to people for the next 6 months, infact i think we've still got some from 12 months ago that people haven't claimed/dont respond :closedeyes:

Didn't know that SAU meetings were places people pickup Ash, interesting concept ...

By your own statement some people wont come even if they do know they need to be there. Would have thought you guys had a policy of recycling trophies if said peoples can't be bothered collecting them, seems more appropriate than hanging onto them in the hope that they eventually show up.

I was primarily suggesting it for the 'benefit' of those that probably know they're in the running for awards and thus will be attending anyway, plus wasn't there some mention of free food being involved, that always gets the natives excited ...

Well we also do give people a "nudge" and tell them they "should" come along.

The general populace however usually do not know who has won what for a lot of the other awards (Club awards, MSport etc) and there are always other people that that come just because its a good social night irrespective of awards or not.

So its sorta a secret, but sorta not - depending on where you sit in among it all. Works best for us and our members as Dec meeting always has 80+ people usually.

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
