Still waiting man... I dont want to rush them, i know they have it under control... I am just so keen now that i know its close!!! The head never came off ;)

Maybe the Charlestown idea isnt that bad then, then maybe a quick cruise around Warners Bay or something?

There would be a few cars tagging along with me....... IF i ever have my car :P

This is the place - http://www.mattara.com.au/

ahh yea i know that one, yea that has a massive carpark behind it next to the cinemas etc.. would be a good spot i think, we wouldnt take up the whole place and cause any unwanted attention.. i think thats a goer mate, i like it..

anyone else have any objections or other ideas?

nice, sitting, beer in hand whilst oogling skylines... nice afternoon that...

Perfect :D i am keen to check out your CF parts!!

isn't that the place down the road from the police station?

Its tucked away, its right near the big shopping centre, the police station is over the back near maccas i think? Either way, we will not be attracting any unwanted attention so it should be fine :)

not sure where the police station is to be honest...

seems to be ticking all the boxes though... might need to start looking at dates / times etc.

what suits people?

The only delay for me is the car and not knowing when itll be ready, but you guys start making a time and even if i dont have it ill make an appearance anyway! BUT fingers crossed i have it!

All sounds goodto me, make it an event?

Not sure if we should make it an event until we get more feedback from others? i THINK the date is OK but am generally useless with double booking things so i will check, but i think once we all agree we can make it an event so that others can see and attend if they like :yes:

Yea thats sounds like a plan...

lets sit on it to see how things go then make it event next week or something.

Where you from man? We will make a plan that suits as many as possible, it's not gunna suit everyone as its not a perfect world, but hey, we have the ball rolling so let's keep it up ;)

AND if I'm gunna make a PAC cruise, your gunna make a Stockton meet! Deal? :P

im from the coast doyalson area but id come up on the weekend for lunch at the mattara if it goes ahead.ill come to a stoko meet if its a weekend

Also post up if your interested in a feed there for lunch? or just an arvo beer etc...

i reckon a feed sounds like the go, just a casual lunch and beer into the arvo then go for a quick drive somewhere?

Oh good stuff, well the Mattara meet is pretty easy for ya then... And stoko meets will happen on a semi regular basis once we are all sorted, i will organise with you guys once my car is back..... It will just be a casual SAU thing, no need for official meets etc

Yea sounds like a good plan... hopefully get a half decent turnout. newcastle is a fairly large place, would think there would be quite a few people on SAU keen to get amongst it??

There are plenty of cars up here but not sure how many SAUers..... All the guys i met up here were through HT.net or NS or whatever its called now, i havent logged in there for years......

It may take time before the SAU_Newy thing catches on but i think its an awesome idea and have been looking forward to it for ages now ;)

Just read the plan. Sounds awesome.

I'm off work that weekend, so i should be around

Good stuff, we will probably wait a while before posting as an actual event, but i think the plan should work pretty well! So far SAU Newy will be repping the 34's :D

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
