Well see the post about Autosalon for show/n/shine

We don't drift, but normally a pack of us head out to watch the Mallala drift days

We have only had one track day and will have another near the end of winter this year (with any sort of luck) - after we get oil coolers (since last time we went out an engine was blown due to oil temp/starvation, a turbo fried from the same, and my oil temp went through 230 degrees)

But mostly we just hang out and cruise occasionally. Not a particularly active club I'm afraid, but we do get together for a dinner every 3 months or so. Unfortunately the aggressive activites and tactics from the cops has put most of us on the back foot and cruises have dried up lately. Last cruise I went on the cops blocked off the 2 entrances to the carpark about 150 cars were occupying on a stop, and proceeded to thoroughly check every car and issue a huge pile of defect notices. This wasn't an SAU cruise, but was attaneded by quite a few SAU people.

Just keep checking this forum for events in general

yep I vote Guy to organise it - as it seems I am so crap at organising events :P - and yes, definitely no 1st weekend of April, as that is the big Victor Harbour cruise and Go-Karting!!!

I remember the old House of Khans on Montague Rd - great food .... is this place the same - you pick your ingredients and flavouring/spices then they cook it on a big round plate in front of you? Yummmmmmmmmmmmmm! I haven't been to Gengis Khan for ages also, so looking forward to this if its the same.

Not really, no curry here.

I have organised a price of $20 per person for the banquet. Normally its $22.50.

The days available are Sunday through to Thursday night.

If we get more than 6 people maybe we can get it down to $19.

And a few jugs of softdrink on the house for the SAU table worth $6.50 each.

Not its just a matter to choose a date that everyone is cool with.

Will

sorry to sound like a jessica simpson, but is mongolian similar to indian?

Its a bit like a BBQ/stir fry - but the contents are selected by you.

Last time I went all the basic ingredients are prepared in separate bays, (pre cut and ready to cook) and you pick out the bits you want (i.e. beef, chicken, carrots, cabbage, etc, etc) you then add the sauces you want (can be hot and spicy through to mild and sweet)

Take it over to the cooks who cook it on a great big shield/hot plate and your done. For cops like me a benefit is that you can go back again and again and again and try all kinds of combinations.

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
