Hi Guys,

Our AGM is being held tomorrow at 3pm Toongabbie Sports Club, 12 Station Rd Toongabbie (preceded by eats or nom or whatever you want to call it)!

Members can check who's nominated in the NSW section.

Proxy vote instructions are there too!

Sorry about late notice - and sorry I can't lend you my chopper (cause I don't have a Lic to fly it) :P

Thanks Terry - Nothing that we shouldn't do ourselves, where we can.

Perhaps, and it's only a suggestion raised elsewhere, a bit more policing of the major threads by the collective moderators. Shouldn't be up to one or two to look like hard arses.

A few examples are/is:

  • the WTB's in the General FS section (slightly out of control)
  • Regulars who could be classed as semi-traders (ie: always stripping multiple vehicles and selling in the FS section). Opportunity to obtain small revenue there. or create a sub forum to advertise wares ?
  • More warnings/mini suspensions on repeat offenders (goers against internet ethos but ...) some folk are slammed and made to feel stupid.
  • Flip side to above is obvious clowns :(
  • Rate the Traders - to give the good ones more Trade (star system or percentage on feedback).
  • Identify in Traders Threads the % discount available (if member). Advertise this in a locked thread in Traders.
  • Encourage Traders to post SAU member pricing.
  • Stronger publicity/support on a couple of good charity's. Pick some majors. We all should feel good helping others.
  • Once a year Major swap n shop meet ? (with attendance of players like JJR, Import Monster, Kudos, OTR .... (see if they can do great discounts on this one day) and people like me can unload some good stuff !
  • Encourage more good DIY articles (lanyards, stubbie holders, public recognition) - Maybe set some time to clean that area up and re-create the indexed links ?

  • clean some of the above up ?

I haven't been to a Tech night but what a winner - well done team.

Big one - how do we thank the committee for all their efforts. Each and every state rep should be thanked. Easily taken for granted, often cop whinging, wonder why they volunteered !!!!

Maybe a free pissup/feed put on by the general club collective. Opportunity to take the piss as well.

Nothing new to you but felt like doing a long postage :whistling:

Edit: I'm not a member this year as it was difficult to Justify. Likely I will re-join but at the time I wondered Why (disenchanted somewhat).

SAU is a community.

99% of Skyline owners are people you would like to know and are the first to offer to help each other out.

Oh sorry - Two more.

The folk keeping this site running are invaluable and we need a way to show our appreciation.

I've not seen raffles as a fund raiser - except maybe at the SAU nats. Think we could increase the frequency to raise some funding.

richard, for your first 2 points, unfortunately this has nothing to do with the nsw club/exec team.

it is/should be controlled by the moderation team, put in place by the sau forum creators/runners should be keeping tabs on that.

There was a motion put forward today that ACT Execs and Central Coast Execs might wish to monitor; and that is "Prior to and after each Exec Meeting, agenda items be requested and commented on, and posted up in your forums/subforums"

The motion was seconded.

We shall look forward to your ongoing feedback and suggestions.

Thanks Richard for your points that Luke addressed within the time allowed at the AGM :)

    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
