Hey Ciaron thanks for posting some meet up details. Will see you there from 6.

Also to those that ate coming I might suggest bringing an umbrella, chair and maybe picnic mat.

Be sure and wear you SAU gear if you have it cause we are representing the club.

See you all there. Should be a great

day out.

Being such kind folk...

Should we bring along tools for WRX,EVO and other teams to use like Made In China SAE sockets with hairline cracks, jack stands with small feet that'll readily sink in soft wet soil, sun-damaged cable ties, pre-cross-cut gaffa tape etc?

I haven't felt so mole-like since I was in HS.

I've picked the Esky & drinks from the trailer, but I'm not sure if Ill be able to make it up on the day.

Cans are packed in a plastic tub & a milk crate; esky is empty, clean & dry.

If I can't make it, I can drop everything around to Terry, & he may be able to take it up?

I'll see tonight/early tomorrow if I can make it; would really like to be there. :/

If it fits in the EVO, I can take it. If...

Matt may not be able to make it. If not > Car pool?

Desmond, NULON approached several car clubs - initially the Execs - asking if that respective car club would be willing to pit itself with 'their finest' against 'the finest' of other clubs.

In this case, their are three modules put forward by NULON.

1) Hillclimb

2) Drags

3) Track

Very nice! Actually i have joined up and paid about 2 weeks ago - but Shell is about to be Mummy so no rush =)

I used to do quite a bit of Autocrossing and Time Attacks in Malaysia previously and clock pretty good times in Sepang International Circuit with a Tuned Starlet Turbo..

I have been contemplating and also thinking about looking at competing again - for fun - Finally got a GTR in my life and i really would like to see how she runs and how it is when she runs hard... In Malaysia it would be a lot easier for me... i know quite a few nice driving roads and i used to go weekly - in NSW i dont know as i only just moved over permanently last September... Been going to Galston Gorge for some drives, but just to familiarize the GTR a bit, i live about 10 min away.

So yeah... will be nice to give it a try and have some nice runs... hence the curiosity.. lol

Thanks for replying so quickly guys!

That's good!

See you soon for our next Texi & Track Events when they're posted :)

I actually cant wait... the GTR is very different from all the other cars i have competed with in Malaysia.. very... LOL but yeah - learning curve, always a learning curve...

Just a quick question - what are the requirements to compete in a competition like this? These kind of hillclimbs or even Autocrossing in NSW / Australia? Just would like to understand more.

Hey mate, once you get into the super secret member's section, there is a club club motorsport thread to check out. This particular event is a little different, but generally hillclimbs are regular, accessible, and excellent fun :)

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
