Does anyone know of any perth based car events over the easter long weekend my partner is draging me out of kalgoolie.

Think there's one JDM meet up next weekend and cruise on Easter weekend , will keep you posted

Not dead - just different people looking for different things.

Being a "older" owner / hoon ;) I'm a little more particular.

There's a few of us on here who have been around since day 1 - going back to Skylines DownUnder days - circa 1999/2000.

I went to the Mustang car show at Wesley college a couple Sundays ago - with some beautiful Shelbys and Mustangs neatly parked up on the grass with plenty of people/families browsing around - talking with friendly owners. I would like to be involved in something quality like that. A well organised GTR/Skyline club - specific to us (not general JDM - just GTR/Skyline).

Have a yearly show and shine day - which we could use to collect toys / colouring in books / etc for kids at PMH.

I would like to see the group / club doing positive things.

Occasional track days, a nice hills run / coastal cruise here and there under a quality banner - something well run.

Not interested in hanging with keyboard warriors with shit buckets who's only interest is to go lapping or crappy cruises where everyone gets stickered.

Something alittle more "exclusive" - I would be happy to put my money and time into something like this.

I find myself just taking my GTR out on my own these days - with my boys strapped in enjoying life!

Keen to get something going if others who are like minded are interested...........

I'm on SAU everyday - love it - don't bother with any other forums anymore - just don't find much to do/read in WA section.

Well said Dan,

I got mine in 02 but took a few years to find this gold mine. Love the idea of the skyline only part as I have much less interest in other makes.

Yearly show sounds good, unfortunately last show I went to (rising Sunday) heaps of people got stickered.

Few of us Wt regulars used to catch up for dinners or meet at events. I thoroughly enjoyed that. Unfortunately most are gone now,I'm trying to reach out to a few oldies to meet up again soon.

Happy to travel to Perth for decent events, even just watching.

Hope to see more people in the future and resurrect our club a bit.

I'll let myself out :P

But seriously, your post sounds like it's on the money, that's definitely what SAUWA should be about. Who knows? Maybe one day I'll get myself another 34...

Thanks for sharing Elle. We are doing a Skyline maintenence day and meet and great. Hoists to work on your cars, BBQ and much more. If you want to get some jobs done on your cars, or an inspection please put your name down on the topic, we need participation for this to happen in the JDM scene.

We should fix that

would it be possible to have a facebook SAU that only posts events, meets, show etc (closed group)..... that are posted on the forum ( like a reblogger ) to extend a reach out to the JDM outer market

Just an idea

btw

i would love to go to show and shine as aside a cruise or track day as i would be embarrassed i dont have anything to go cruising in, apart jdm 4wd lol

    • BRUH, one of the biggest mistakes of my life..... and i've had plenty ;[)
    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
    • Echo the awesome sentiment 👍 Definitely a car worth saving. Looking forward to seeing updates as well. 
    • Scenic roads, stunning skylines, and Chickos to finish it off! Join SAU NSW as we cruise through the Royal National Park and along Lawrence Hargrave Drive to Figtree! Sunday 26th October 2025 4:30PM Meeting Waterfall Station Parking 5:00PM Cruise Departure Royal National Park > Lawrence Hargrave Dr > Memorial Dr > Sid Parrish Park 6:15PM Arrival at Sid Parrish Park Figtree Meet Location: Waterfall Station Parking Final Destination: Sid Parrish Park RSVP: https://forms.gle/E4s5SiRKQfDdypky8 *Disclaimer* There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.
    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
