To all our SAU Deca friends,

Just a quick update to let you all know where we currently stand with the future of our ‘Deca’ type events.

We have done everything in our power to keep Deca alive. The new owners have taken a hard line blanket approach to the way they manage the venue. The ‘mega+mini’ wang tracks are out of bounds, the price has significantly increased and the paperwork has doubled.... We persisted with these changes, however, as of recently, they have decided AASA insurance is now not acceptable, meaning we can only run under CAMS insurance. Further to this, the back track has now been deemed unsafe and we are not allowed to use it until it is rectified.

Right now it is not feasible using CAMS insurance for our event. The time, cost and effort involved far outweighs the end result. It’s not game over for Deca, but it is out of our hands at the moment.

Good news is we are looking at running an event that will be bigger and better in the second half of the year. Micolour will still be on board. Early days but we will release information when we know more.

SauVic Motorsport Committee.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Motorsport committee both past as present for putting in so much effort over the years.

We had a lot of amazing times at DECA.

Thank you

Bec, are there any hints or teasers that could be posted?
I'm Very sad about the possible demise of SAU DECA's, but keen to see what the awesome committee can come up with!

Pic not related, but awesome....

    • First time visitor and currently getting ready to start work on my HK Premier.  Its all stock, 186 with 3 on the tree.  The only mod i have right now is extractors.  I am hoping to get some guidance on slightly modifying the engine to bring a little more power. Just going for a nice, comfortable cruiser.  The car is very straight, however i have been out of the country for 20 years and its been gathering dust at a family farm.  Will be doing quite a bit of body work to cut out some small rust areas (frnt quarter panels and a few other small bits) and fix up the paint.  Will be redoing the interior (its currently black and the seats are in real need of recovering and respringing the driver side (its front bench seat).  The dash needs a little TLC, but no real damage.  As my heater has degraded I am considering fitting something after-market that will be both heater/AC (recommendations here are always welcome). Wanting something discrete that will allow me to use the same controls and not be obvious once inside the car.   For the engine, i have been told i could consider upgrading my cam (imagine i would need a new head as well) and putting a new carby (currently the original stromberg).  However not sure what is going to be the best route.  Would certainly welcome any comments/suggestions.  As  a final step I am looking at changing the wheels. Current hubcaps are in dire need of refurbishment or replacement (imagine its a bit like hens teeth).  Thinking of some clean/classic looking mags (7-inch should be more than enough - not going for a large change in look).  Welcome any comments/advice and of course any questions. 
    • I got the ARC M079 due to the space constraint.  Been running mint for the last 3 years.  Plazmaman also seems like a really solid choice but not used myself.    Hunt around for a better price but this is what I have - https://www.rhdjapan.com/arc-brazing-intercooler-smic-m079-bnr32.html
    • Wanted to follow up on this. Did you end up getting the M073? Still deciding on what to get between nismo m073-79 and plazaman.  
    • I was just watching these boys up in QLD AWD'ing their S13 too.  
    • Por que no los dos? At least my euro brawler is reliable - unlike the JDMs I've had. Sheraaz you look familiar, did you ever come to an SAU VIC meet aaaaaages ago?
