that's bloody awesome funky!

but... its more of a banner, and if you are after a logo it might be a bit too detailed

I have to totally agree.

If ya keep the left half and merge it with the final SAU Vic logo (whatever that may be), that would make an awesome banner :aroused: :headspin:.

James, we collecting all ideas first, there is a deadline, once it has elasped the commity will probably pick 5 top designs and Shan will post a POLL, to determine the final logo. This has all been discussed in the commity meetings.

oh? I thought we all agreed at the meeting to go with the S and the AU on the side with Victoria underneath, a slight variation on JAMESW's design.

working on that now, was thinking the same thing, making it a windscreen decal. Its far too complex for use as a logo.

I've got the original calsonic windscreen decal templates for R30 - R34, so its a simple matter of using those wth this to make a perfect fit.

More on this soon.

But does everyone agree on the choice of logos? Its got eh GTR style S, and the au seperate so that you'd have to be pretty slow to not realise it stood for Australia (and hopefully it'll eliminate people going "what's the U stand for if S is for Skylines and A is for Australia"). Its got the victoria underneath to set us apart from the other states...

purrrrfect. (BTW this was decided at our committee meet last week) I welcome your input. The sooner we have this finalised the sooner we can get the merchandise sorted and the quicker we can make membership packs and get that much closer to getting a member base and payment system going.

Depending on the merchandise its going on (eg: a hat where the emblem needs to be a block instead of something wide, or a window decal where the logo needs to be wide not a block) we'll use the two variants.

Its a rip-off of a GTR style.

IMO - Sh(t and un-original. (sorry being blunt as i cbf typing something nice)

Disclaimer:

I say that knowing full well i can offer no better solution as i cant use paint/photoshop or even draw with my hands and scan it up.

the reason me, james, al and andrew liked it (didn't get a chance to discuss with rob ash or dale and inark coz you guys left early or weren't there) is:

a) simple

B) clear (so you don't get people going, "what's the "U" stand for?")

c) associated with skylines as soon as you see it due to its resemblence to the GTR logo.

d) it just can't be mistaken for anything else, very distinct etc. (so you don't go confusing it with a pair of subbies for example)

e) allows you to change its dimensions and still keep its form (I'd love to see someone try to put the two tailights/subwoofer things and the whole of "SKYLINES AUSTRALIA" on the front of the cap n make it look simple)

f) includes the VIC to set us apart from other states, but still maintains that we are part of the whole.

the competition ain't over yet, that's just what the four of us prefer so far. I'll put a poll up a lil later (maybe tonight) with all the logos submitted as banners on a car, and on a hat and on a membership card (since these are practical uses for the logo). Its one thing to see it on the screen and another to use it on merchandise.

BTW if we do go ahead with this as the winning submission then JamesW wins a free hat/beenie (or maybe both depending on budget) as promised.

I dont want a justification from anyone. I'm just giving my inputs :D

People have thier own views etc. I can respect that, each to thier own entirely.

Just putting forward my view :D

Albeit i cbf'd tying out something more diplomatic.

Also, i was thinking, what about trying to do something with those stickers we have for last years Auto Salon? Or maybe a variant of that design?

I've got 'em on my rear 1/4 windows. Could be worth a shot? (there, i've given input now too :cheers:)

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
