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.....

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
