A massive thanks to the guys from top secret for organising a great meet.

Sooo many cars.

I only saw 1 cop car early in the arvo on the way in.

A lot of people seemed to be behaving themselves, which is always good to see.

Will post pics tomorrow or Sunday.

Copy paste, cause I didn't see the wrap up thread...... :P

11ty civics with orange wheels and roof racks.

Nah, was a fun night. Loads of "variety". Some rare stuff, some more mundane stuff. A few new sau nsw members joined up which was good. Behaviour was good. Some Honda fanbois thought limiter bashing was a recognised sport. Our little sau setup proved good for car watching.

I was AMAZED at the amount of cars still outside when we left. There must have been at least 200 cars I drove past that couldn't get in! Need a bigger space with more entry exit options in the future.

And for the record, I didn't see one hwp near the meet. Traffic operations were in house and seemed efficient. Only saw hwp on the way on the m7.

Car scene dead? No, it's very much alive.

We definitely had a good vantage point for all the cars entering later on in the night :yes:

Right near the exit so getting out was easy, sooooo many cars just parked along the road that couldn't get in

Lots of fun just hanging out with the Sau crew admiring the cars entering... or judging & making fun of them, harmless fun.

I took photos too but nothing that hasn't already been posted up already by you guys.

overall was a good night but need to have more than one Rip off food stand (the girls serving were a consolation though) I don't think even the organisers were expecting so many people to rock up as they did

:cheers:

P.S, Alex I counted AT LEAST 12 of those new toyota86 thingies ;)

It's 6.9km from the GWH (Shell Servo) all the way to the entry location and then all the way down to the Horsley Drive set of traffic lights (which is where the cars were backed up to as I tried to enter from both sides), so at roughly 10 metres per car thats another ~690 cars waiting outside at approx 8pm.

Next time, charge $30 per vehicle for entry, park the rest free along Ferrers Rd or in the paddock where you park to attend the drag racing and make them walk in the dark.

Also to add, I was around Huntingwood-Arndell Park-Eastern Creek between 4-6pm and not a single cop car seen and also nobody was using the Huntingwood Industrial area to "meetup" like we all thought however I expect that for the next meeting everyone will be getting there much earlier and much closer.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
