Hi everyone,

We have been able to organise a club feature article in HPI(www.hpi.com.au). The photoshoot will be done by Rick McDowell, who does all of the WA content.

I'm after nominations off people who are interested in getting there car in the best import mag in Oz. If you can make the date, Sunday 23rd of May then please PM me your interest. The shoot will most likely be held at the Kwinana Motorplex.

This will provide very good exposure for SAUWA and SAU. There are only a limited number of spots, and preference will be given to SAUWA members, so hurry and join up if you haven't already. Please make sure your cars are in good condition for the photoshoot.

Cheers

Paul

President of SAUWA

Wrong way to go about a photoshoot if you ask me!

I say get EVERYONE along to the motorplex for a giant group shot as well as the smaller feature articles that go along with it. You can be picky with which of the cars get more features. There should only be limited spots for the individual car shots, etc. Not the entire event.

Make the event open to everyone to wash thier cars, bring them along, no matter how stock, how N/A, how dead clutched etc.

I'm sure a panoramic group shot of 50+ skylines in the pit lanes taken from the dragstip overpass would be a big win.

Just my 2c. Knowing all the long-time SDU/SAU'ers would probably think the same.....

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
