G'day guys!


Been getting a lot of inquiries about when we are going up so we think it's time!

 

Date:  Sunday 11th of September

 

Location:  3 - 13 Stockyard Place, West Gosford    

 

Time:  11:00 am 

 

Map: https://www.google.com.au/maps/place/Gosford+Classic+Car+Museum/@-33.423556,151.3156468,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x6b0d3557cc6cd9a7:0x50dd654ccd8c6dff!8m2!3d-33.4235605!4d151.3178355?hl=en

 

*** Anyone interested there will also be a cruise up Old Pac to the Museum. Departure time 9:30 am from Thornleigh McDonald's *** 

 

For those of you not already drooling over all the pictures popping up of the cars on display there are hundreds of cars of numerous makes and models ranging from the Ferrari F40 to Ford XY GT-HO to Porsche 959! 

 

This is definitely a family friendly event so please bring along the kids.

There is food and drinks available at (outside) the Museum with some awesome burgers!

Now lets show them what we have as part of SAU NSW!

 

 

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.

 

Cheers guys and hope to see you there!

Sorry Guys, my choices today are finish my racing sim rig or come outside and play.  Well, the rig is getting the vote. Plus will give me some time to work on my car too.

Have fun!

Umair, these were taken a couple of weeks before...
I hope these are acceptable.

The original Ferrari official colour (believe it or not) was yellow.

 

Those neon lights in the above pic, were supplied by Herman Urriola on contract to the Museum's owner. Some might remember him as the CEO of Envy Imports at Brookvale, where SAU.NSW held a Dyno Day back in 2007.

In a conversation with Herman recently, he says that he is still owed quite a bit of money for his work. :(

I forget whether it's the rods or the cones that became saturated with "red" in this place.

Why oh why did I want an MGB (as my first car) when I was 20?

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
