Only 2 weeks until a little slice of Deutschland lands in the Adelaide Parklands.

So make sure you keep the date free for the annual SAU meet up / drinks in a tent on the 14th of January from 12pm

Will be using this as practice for Oktoberfest

:cheers:

FYI NOT AN OFFICIAL SAU EVENT, JUST SOMETHING NIGHTCRAWLER, MATT-R, CUBES AND I HAVE BEEN DOING FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS

Yep, I am down like a clown for this as per usual!

Anyone who does not enjoy drinking, shooting, gawking at hot chicks, eating insane amounts of food and talking shit about cars for a whole day should NOT attend this event. For everyone else there is NO excuse!

my levels of eating and drinking will be limited financially as my 4 week Eurotrip has kind of expanded to 2 months... and a week or 2 stop over in the US on the way home isn't out of the question yet :whistling:

I'm sure we'll be sporting our club shirts, to make it easier for you ... or just look for the roudy idiots :P

I would look for the SAU shirts otherwise they will need to sit at every table if they are going by the rowdy idiots.

Yep I plan on wearing my SAU club shirt.

So, my big plan is:

- Arrive at 11:30am or so (gates open at 12pm) .... history shows I am always late, and Whiplash saves a place in line for me - but since he is giving me a lift this year I will most likely be on time :) ... if anyone is keen on coming early (before 12pm) to help us save max tables and chairs once we get in, we will enter via the Coopers Gate, which is off West Tce.

- As soon as you enter go get an ID wristband from Tent 1.

- Then go get a Stein from tent 30.

- Go get a green or red apple cider from Tent 19 and a serve of Salt'n'Pepper squid from Squid inc. Tent 23.

- We will be sitting near the centre of the Jagermaeister shelter, which is tent 46 once you get a program, or if you download it Here (click) - I like tent 46 as it has good access to all of the facilities and a decent view to the spray tent :) - forecast of 28 is letting us down a tad at this stage, but let's hope it comes through warmer than that.

- Profit.

Let's hope the Jagermeister tent is host to these lovelies again this year. And the Jagermeister slushies last year were freaking awesome!

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
