Good to meet you to mate, im sure i will catch you at other events and cruises etc.. nice pics

yeah fingers crossed, lots of stuff happening this year with little cruises and track days all over the place. I hope i hear when the next lowdown is on too as being a 3min drive from my place makes it unmissable!

your pics were better, quality over quantity anyday!

im guessing your camera isnt a straight out of the pocket compact though?

ha cheers mate..

yea i have a DSLR, but not very good with it.. starting to play with photo editing to try make them better too..

I do have more pics, but mainly just of the 3 SAU cars, and quite a few of mine (slowly learn how to take pictures of the yellow, not the easiest colour imo).. and a bunch of the other ones my gf took over the whole show.

Was an awesome event. The black nur that arrived at the same time i did was stunning!

Thanks natett - and huge congrats to you if I'm not mistaken, your TRD Supra took out Best in Show, right? Can we have a few more pics of your car? I managed to grab one of your engine bay but there were too many people standing around your car to get a good shot of the exterior :)

Great day!

heres some pics... sorry if there abit crap.. still finding my feet with photo editing.

Thanks for the pics Anthony. Was good to see you again, you did a great job cleaning the car after a long drive down from Newy!

pics look pretty good ant,

i think they could have set the three of you up a bit better though for photos, positioning is a bit awkward imo

maybe its artistic haha idk

Yeah we didn't really spend much time lining up cars to begin with, maybe next time you could help us arrange them, and next time hopefully we'll have more SAU guys together with some banners and merchandise, etc. :)

Was great to meet you Jayson, your KR4 33R looked amazing. I forgot your mate's name but his '02 also looked fantastic; incredibly tidy classic!

In an event such as Lowdown,...

a) should SAU.NSW have a banner, a desk with membership applications, display their "SAU.NSW" number plate on a Member's car perhaps?

b) would Lowdown give us enough latitude do you think, so that SAU could do this?

Nick and I have already spoken to Justin and an event organiser about this - stay tuned in for more info. Maybe target an EOMM around Aug (we have a bit on in July). If anyone has a lead on reasonable banners for our 3x3 and 3x6 cabanas send me the info. Did some checking but they've all been unreasonable.

That first pic is great ant!

I don't know about angles and what not matt, just think your car shouldn't be hiding all alone by itself behind the other guys.

I'd be more keen to go if it had more SAUness to it, I went to a EOMM once and it included a cold ass Carpark at night with a lot sour faced, unfriendly people that you knew were "those types" of people.

Was there for an hour and thought I'd leave before I was a witness to a stabbing.

The low down seemed a lot better and I was going to attend and enter but I had a piss up that weekend :)

If there was more club support with suggested things and some few formiliar faces it'd be worth the 4 hours driving

I like that second pic for some reason It just looks good to me

Do you use a tripod or just point and shoot?

One last question is where is the pic in your sig taken at?

Cheers mate, I like that one too. It's a little harsh, with a lot of sharpness, but not to bad imo for pretty average editing skills.

No tripod, I do have one, but only really required for me in low light etc.. I do have a DSLR though.

The sig pic is up top of sugarloaf.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
