What a weekend if i'ver ever had one.

I would like to thank everyone who came along.

There are some awesome cars in SAU-Vic and seeing 35 or so of them together really makes it brilliant.

I hope everyone enjoyed themselves.

Tops to everyone that turned out.

I must say, the 2nd day is something a lot of you should have stayed for. The views and the roads we drove on are the best in Vic without a doubt.

Prawn platters in Port Campbell... what more can a man want?

The split 2-day event will become a yearly thing judging by peoples feedback on the event.

Hope everyone enjoyed themselves.

Now for our next cruise - Phillip Island.

Till then - ash

It was a magnificent cruise setup by the SAU VIC team. Truely a work of art. THe second day was i felt much better, less standing around for photos more driving some great roads and seeing some marvelous secenery. It was really good to be able to talk the shit and drink the beer with some good mates i have now made in sau vic. Even my girlfriend melissa said she had a great time so well done! :(

Only went on the Saturday down to Apollo Bay, but still had a great time. It was an awesome sight to see 30 odd skylines (and one wrx :) ) snaking along some sweet stretches of road. Congrats to all involved in the planning, will be keeping my eye out for the next one.

That was an awesome weekend! Prob best cruise yet next to the blackreefton spur. Sat night was a lot of fun and for once it was the girls who were the drunken messes not us guys! :)

The second day was awesome, started off with a big breakfast in town then headed through some nice twisty roads down to the 12 Apostles and Loch Ard Gorge. From there down to Apolo Bay for a late lunch and drinks. From there back through the Otways.....now that was fun! We then hit Colac for a bit of a break and the locals here were a good laugh, bit like a mini Chaple Street. "How fast do they go" "Who's is the quickest" "Can you do a burnout" Hahaha. That plus the local cars doing laps of the main street, was some nice cars!

From there back through Geelong and off home. I'd just like to say thanks to all who came along and for making it such a fun weekend! Was nice to get to know some of you better! For those that didn't come.........you missed out bad! :)

There will be around 3 rolls of pics I'll be posting soon so keep your eyes open :rofl:

must give a big thanks to all the guys involved in organizing this meet it was awsome, for the guys who went home on the saturday we had a good run home but would good to have stayed the weekend many thanx again cant wait till the next one.

Awsome cruise indeed, even though i didnt get to Apollo Bay till 5 in the arvo. The over night stay was a great opportunity to get to know some of the members on a more social level, now feel to be a "member" in the actual sense rahter than an onlooker at events :cheers:

If your a new member....you definatly missed out.

Away from the social side, the drive was great.....good roads, good views, good cars......what more could you ask for.......oh i know......more 98RON fuel stops....hehe

Big thanks to Ash an all the SAU guys organising!! cant wait for the next one.

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
