The 2015 SAU Vic elections will be held via AGM at the December Club Meeting on Wednesday 17th of December 2014

At this meeting, the new Committee for 2015 will be elected the annual report and financial position of the club will be presented.

All Committee positions are up for voting and nomination.


However it will only be the Executive Committee who gets voted in on the night of the AGM.

The Executive committee will then pick the general committee as they see fit from the members who are nominated here.


Nominations can only be made by financial members of SAU-Vic.


If you would like to be involved on the Committee, please nominate yourself. If you think someone else would be great in a Committee role - please nominate them.

For a nomination to be valid it must be seconded by a current Club Member and the person must accept the nomination.

Don't be scared - this is a great way to get more involved with your club. The Committee is currently structured as such:



Executive Committee roles:

President

Vice President

Secretary

Treasurer


General Committee roles:

Social Events

Motorsport Events


Again, this is a great way to be a part of your club. All current financial members are eligible.

All committee members have to stand down and be re-nominated and re-elected - so everyone has the ability to be involved.


Please post any queries or nominations in this thread.

Speaking on behalf of the committee, we want to see the club continue to provide an avenue for like minded social events and motorsport. 2014 has been a real challenge, our primary motorsport venue became unavailable to us, our partners for track (time attack/sprint) events made a decision to align to Porches Vic as a result attendance at the events was less then desirable. In light of these hurdles, club member attendance at circuit events was almost at a club all time high. We have to thank Squires Loft - Nunawading for providing excellent food during the track season, providing a great social avenue at the events. The club offered members a 3 track gokart challenge this year, from the feedback from members who attended the days were great value and good fun. We'd like to see more members getting involved in the gokart challenge for 2015! Going on a drive down the coast of through the hills doesn't seem to appeal to many members these days, we did however run a few events that offered a nice drive, followed by a social lunch. We need more feedback on what you want to see from that club in this respect moving forward.

For 2015 we have many thoughts for events and activities. They include:

Wilby short course track days

Winton track days (in conjunction with another smaller club eg 86 Club Vic, MelbS15, EvoOz)

Broadford track days (in conjunction with another smaller club eg 86 Club Vic, MelbS15, EvoOz), Matt at AASA is investigating insurance for 2015

We will be looking carefully at which track days to include for the 2015 championship

GoKart challenge

I nominate everybody that's currently on the committee as it's a sexy bunch of people who get stuff done!

Also I nominate Amanda. Possibly as treasurer? Smart, enthusiastic and has finance industry experience and background. Also likes beer, beer is good :P

I nominate as follows:

Richo - pres

Dan - VP

I am happy to stay on as secretary so will accept that nomination.

Treasurer- not sure. Tony does a good job but if he doesn't have time anymore it's not fair to expect him to do it. If Amanda knows how to do the financial reports etc I'd be happy to have her on board.

Events:

Tony O

Oscar

i think time moving forward is limited to just preparing Financial reports and the odd thing here or there. So happy to do that 'niche' position if required and the 'Treasurer' can handle all the banking.

Akin to a book keeper/Accountant relationship.

Happy with whatever :)

Yeah don't need to be an accountant to be a treasurer. You do need to follow decent process though of keeping/tracking invoices, tracking the club finances and all associated (even better if you can input to something like MYOB but not essential).

Just means the financial reports need to be prepared by someone other than the Treasurer. So Tony can do that or can just pay another accountant/firm to do it. Not a huge expense, SAU-Vic has been lucky for a long time having a accountant as a Treasurer - so it's been something people have done as part of the role.

A lot of that can be automated with Xero or similar. (MYOB seem to be in catchup mode!)

    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
