So what do you need to do?

Entry Form

Start polishing your car! All Skylines will be entered into their respective category (eg R32 GTR) and also into the People's Choice award. Each car will also be eligible for one, and only one, of Best Interior, Best Exterior or Best Engine Bay.

Judging criterea will be posted before the day so people know what the Judges will be looking out for.

Until then peoples... spread the word!

Ok guys.  What we have here at the moment is advance notice of the event.

 

Many more details will follow and we will definitely be keeping you all informed.

Hey, interested in comming down for the show. How long would the drive be from brisbane?? Is it just a sunday event?

Yes mate,

Just the sunday event. (Of course there would be some of us up there on the saturday night as with last year.)

I would say with stops at speed limit you would need to allow 10hrs.

Dan.

Anyone got a place I can wash my car/ leave it safe overnight???

We're not going to bag you out mate. You are being sensible about your choice of car.

Basically it's a Skyline show so we want as many Skylines entering as possible. There is a category for best non Skyline though. As far as coming for a look, the more the merrier. We want you to spread the word far and wide.

There will be food, heaps of car related stalls and displays from workshops to people like Turbosmart, Motul and GCG Turbochargers. As well we will have Louie from Xclusive colours bringing some trick painted beasts and Rated R Designs will be showing off their stuff.

It's going to be huge.

yea man thanks sounds good i love a perve on all ya skylines :(

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
