For sure....with the new and improved V

Excellent mate!

Group is getting bigger :)

Would like to check out a v35 a bit closer then a picture too.

Just incase someone gets there and doesn't know who to look for or gets lost, my number is 0421551710 and my name is Jarrad.

Good to see there is abit of interest..

Either way, will be a nice chilled Arvo...

Maybe a stockton drive would be a good spot to go afterwards for abit of a run.. Probably get some nice pics there too with newy in the background... I can bring my DSLR..

Title looks like it's offfical SAU meet up..

If we want to have an official SAU Newcastle meet up how should we go about it so we dont upset anyone?

We are outsiders and obviously are going to have separate meets to alot of the Sydney based SAU crowd, but of course we want to do it all right :)

Speak to anyone on the NSW elected committee to perhaps bring up at the next meeting or in there super secret forums and they will see if there is a possibility to fit it in the calandar.

I'm sure it wouldn't be a problem. You could even make a day of it and have Sydneysiders cruise up for the day to meet up for some lunchin.

Any of these guys will do.

Thanks for the input,

I think this has been taken the wrong way though, most likely by my choice of thread name.

The idea was not to start an official SAU newcastle club / event etc.. the idea was basically to get peolpe in newcastle and surrounding areas that are on SAU or SAU NSW members together to provide some networking, and maybe get some local meets (anyone from anywhere more than welcome, but all newcastle based etc).. hence the SAU newcastle name, although if this is against rules or confusing / upsetting people, we have no problem changing the name or removing SAU from any of the thread titles to not mislead / misdirect people, and/or inappropriatelty represent something we are not.

this has come about becasue as much as i love going to sydney and especially SAU NSW events (which i plan to deffinately contiune doing, i actually have my car entered in and supporting the SAU group at this weekends The Low Down Showcased car show), its not easy for us to come to every small gathering that i would like to in the syndey area, just trying to start up similar things in the newcastle area.

As mentioned above, Matt has made contact with the correct people and hopefully this all gets sorted with all parties happy.

Cheers,

Anthony

I think you are taking this a bit to seriously. I know it's not official, I read your thread in full.

I was just mearly pointing out the fact that the title may look misleading to some.

We used to have a coasties meet up few years back which was very popular but unforunatley due to some unrelated sau members the meet was shut down.

It's a shame that there aren't enough members up there to make up numbers for a offical regular meet.

D_I_F it was just the comments in other threads that had us concerned, felt like maybe we had stepped on some toes or upset people which is the last thing we want.

We want to promote the SAU community in Newcastle/Central Coast areas and by doing so follow the guidelines and eventually we may have enough people to create the regular meets like the ones in the past. The few guys that are keen on this event are not interested in any behavior that would reflect on SAU poorly and the last thing i want is any negative attention with my car after finally getting it running 2 years later, we are happy to have unofficial meets etc but we will need to have more threads for each meet, the idea of the title on this thread would be more so to attract the local guys and see if we can get something together :) (Make sense or am i just dribbling lol)

I cant wait to be involved with as many SAU NSW events as i can, have entered Texi, Marulan and probably the Nats as well...... Bring on the good times :D

Oh, and bring some of your Sydney peeps up to say G'day :P

Ok cool, I was under the impression it was vice versa that's all..

Seems we are on the same page so all good.

What other threads?

Have we upset someone?

We are all good mate, just a few misunderstandings etc, nothing to worry about.... This thread may change title soon just to save some confusion in regards to Official/Unofficial meets which is all good :)

The event is still on and is going to be fantastic :yes:

Awesome news mate! It should be a good day to catch up.... :yes:

Anthony - May be a good time to start getting some firmer numbers over the next week so we can book a table out the back just incase there is something on at the same time etc.... Just to be safe :)

On that note, if you are coming can you please let Anthony know if it is +1 etc so we know how big the table is going to need to be?

Hey Matt, I'm a little hesitant booking solid number as its such a casual meet, I might give them a call tomorrow and give them a heads up that I will turn up with 10 to 20 people or something?

Just that it's hard to tell numbers, and the amount that are keen to eat as well etc?...

What you think?

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
