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 actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
