Location: Garage Cafe

Time: 6:30-10:30PM (7:30PM Formalities)

Date: Wednesday 20th Feb

Food: Finger Food.

The 2013 SAU Vic elections will be held via EGM at the February Club Meeting on Saturday 16th February 2013

At this meeting, the new Committee for 2013 will be elected. All current Committee members will step down on 16/02/2013.

So when exactly is / was this?

And isn't it the AGM (Annual General Meeting)? An EGM is an Extraordinary General Meeting.

An AGM is exactly that an Annual General Meeting

And EGM is an Extraordinary meeting, a meeting called upon by the Committee members

Not sure what the relevance of whether its an AGM/EGM has any bearing on the topic discussed at hand

"The Annual General meeting (AGM) is an important event for every organisation. It gives its members, the general public and the committee a broad overview of the organisation's current directions and financial health and confirms its purpose.

It is also the time to revitalise the organisation through the official engagement of members into key elected positions."

An Extraordinary General Meeting is called at times other than an AGM, usually in response to a crisis occurring in the running of the organisation.

Feb 20 is surely the AGM, as dictated by the rules of incorporation.

Are we really going to argue becuase the post has an E and not an A? Are you not going to turn up because its an EGM and not called an AGM?

The agenda of the meeting is clearly outlined in the first post.

The rules of the Club are governed by the Club constitution, this dictates how the club is run. There are no set rules from every incorporation. i could call it a PGM (Party General Meeting) and if that's what the constitution says that's what it will be.

In addition we have already had a AGM this year. So should we call this our Double Annual General Meeting?

If you have any further issues of what we call our meetings please contact Consumer Affairs on 1300 558 181.

Or feel free to nominate yourself as Treasurer and re-write our club constitution.

Sorry Tony, but you are wrong. The club may be governed by its constitution, but that constitution is governed by the Incorporations Act, which has recently been amended. As an executive committee member, this is something you need to be aware of. The Incorporations Act contains what are termed "model rules", and it is these that are generally used to form the constitution of incorporated bodies, like SAU-Vic.

If you have already had an AGM, then that is the time you should have elected a new committee.

Because the Incorporations Act 2012 has changed the "model rules", many incorporated bodies are calling Extraordinary General meetings to pass a resolution to the effect that their constitution be changed in line with the revised model rules.

As an executive member of the committee, I suggest you familiarise yourself with the rules that govern the operation of incorporated bodies.

The club's constitution doesn't need re-writing, it just needs to be adhered to. Unfortunately, I can't stand for committee, as I am not a financial member of SAU-Vic.

(FWIW, I have some 20 years experience in serving on the committees of various incorporated bodies)

It's governed by the 'model rules' or it can create its 'own' rules.

Model rules versus own rules

Your association may use the model rules, or create its own rules. Either way, the rules must address every item listed in Schedule 1 of the Associations Incorporation Reform Act 2012

If you want to further discuss this please take it to PM and not to clutter this thread.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
