I've just moved over from WA and living in Glenelg, loving the fact that there is a car show nearly every weekend! Had a ute muster, Mini club, now All Japan and then Austin Healys in a couple of weeks, very cool.

I should have got on to the forums and entered! Saw a black, manual Stagea pretty much exactly like mine in every way haha.

Another great year. Great to meet some new members. The highlight was seeing the cops go after the Ferrari. Did anyone hear if they caught him? And having a drink at the watermark. Where all the SAU shirts were. Also cant wait to see Dave's photos.

Apparently he got away and then drove back down the same road later..

Great day and some very nice cars! Can't wait to get my coupe out maybe next year though.

Had a great day despite not being able to get my car there. putting my wheels on dions car was a tedious exercise that resulted in many lols.

cheers to all the sau buys that came and sank some bulmers at the watermark cheers.gif

Just to clarify, yes they got him.

He was dropping a mate to the airport, so he was told to come back and collect his fine or his car would be impounded, which is why he obviously came back (this is the black 458 Italia - the red one with the Iron Chef sticker that parked on the reserve had nothing to do with it). See, they don't only pick on imports! ;)

Seriously we smashed it out of the park today. So many awesome cars, and I'm still amazed at the number of spectators, we surely had over 1000 people drop by. Everyone was well behaved (with a couple of small exceptions) and Neil and the guys at SAPOL did a great job of chatting to owners and settling down the pelicans driving past.

Dave took a dozen photos and then gave up for the day.

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
