Still downloading my photos off the memory card. Somehow managed 1.2 gigs of stuff.

Like the others have said, huge-rageous thanks to the JEM boys for hosting such a great night. The atmosphere was fantastic with all those great cars and a look-see at the cool components that make up a high power build.

Also thanks to Terry and Matt for putting their cars on display as well. I'm always amazed by road cars that are kept in such pristine condition (makes me glad to park at the back of the lot).

Yup, they couldn't do enough for us :)

And quite a few of our cars go to JEM - rightly so!

This was an interesting night, and I was impressed by the professionalism and accurate answers from the JEM guys. I hadn't been there before but will put them on the list for future.

On the other hand, it was great to arrive late and miss the 4th performance in 12 months or so from the "why you should spend $15k on internals for your street car" sales pitch from Nitto. Their gear is excellent....but only 1% of people need excellent.

Thanks for putting this event on team :)

And an SAU Member 'Adopted' Car that has been here in Oz since 2003 as a new personal import; but never made an appearance at SAU Events until Legends Night November 2011.

Very few SAU Members have ever seen underneath her before - so at JEM, we and they welcomed the opportunity. :3some:

You Duncan have been just as dynamic in putting things on when you were Prez :yes:

And you in fact set the ball rolling with these Tech Nights by engaging National Tyre Wholesalers' Tech Night last year. That won't be forgotten!

Great to see all you SAU Members last night :3some:

Our quota was full - umm overfull in fact with one gatecrasher who'll remain nameless.

A very informative night. Big Thankyou to JEM and SAU for putting the night on.

I had never been there before, but will keep them in mind for my next build, as their knowledge and wanting to make sure the customer is happy and going in the right direction in their project, is something I look for in a workshop.

Thanks to JEM and SAU execs for the great night. I was the guy asking too many questions about circuit cars -sorry!

I also found Nitto's pitch interesting, learnt a lot about forged internals etc. It was also interesting that he didn't mention any prices which I found amusing. Hopefully I will see you all again at the next track day when my car is up and running :)

      Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
