andrew, you sound as though the people who are reading this all live north? from the way im reading it, maybe if you "toned it down" a little people from the west would be more encouraged to attend? instead, it sounds as though its a "northerners" only club ......... ? or maybe im reading it the wrong way?

kel, don't you live just as far to parramatta as to north sydney? why are you mocking the distance to the west from where you are? :D

You take offence where there's none to be taken :D

If we didn't want Western suburbs SAU'ers to join us, why would we even consider going to restaurants out west? I merely meant that even if we did more the dinners out west, I fear that they still wouldn't come and join us for reasons stated at the AGM. (We're trying to think of ways to get the 70 or so club members who don't participate in social events to start coming along and breaking the percieved social cliques in the club)

I started this thread asking for suggestions for venues, and more veunes suggested were on the North Shore, as that's where most attendees live, and know good restaurants to suggest. Please feel free to organise next month's dinner with a venue out West (seriously)!!! You of all people know that I'm not adverse to a cruise out west for dinner or whatnot :(

As for Yak & Yeti, I've eaten there and I loved the food... Very different from the norm, with their Goat curries and similar dishes. It's very adventurous though, and not for everyone.... Not sure if it's the best place for an SAU Dinner, but worth putting it out to the crowd I guess.

We need suggestions for places outside of the northshore

the reason I can see why it's been centred on the north is that those of us who are organising it live this way and know the restaurants.  

I would LOVE to go to leichardt though one night for Italian :D mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

My girlfriend lives in the forum on Norton st. I'm going over there for dinner tonigh. hmmm, I may have to scout a future location. Can I claim expenses for that?

hmmm, went to a place called Il Baretto (Bourke st. Surry Hills) last night. As the GF is sick of eating on Norton Street (she lives in the forum). Was very nice and well priced but took bloody ages to get a table.

There is a place on the corner of city west link and Norton st called Grappa. My parents friends owns the joint. Very nice food, but pretty pricey and because it's so busy the service isn't always as prompt as I'd like. Very friendly though, and you can see the whole carpark from just about any table in there.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
