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.

    • oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)
    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
