New Perth Import Only Show....


Recommended Posts

Hmmmm..... I would also have to say that Good Trade stalls with good deals ( the word good there is important ) is a good start. A nice selection of driving events perhaps, a selection of different cars ( RICE and PERFORMANCE ) and of course some nice girls to ogle at :uh-huh:

Cheers

everyones idea's sound good but...

1> no rice?

errr how can anyone CHOOSE what rice is and what isn't, personally id classify all cars at these cars shows RICE if i had too, you barely see one with any sort of street cred etc.. but there are the few though i must admit.

2> racing events/drift

its hard to find a venue that will let you cut it up, the last autosalon at belmont almost ruined it for Norbert whom is now holding his Max Action events there, no excessive wheelspin etc and they have scouts there looking out for these things.

drift, you need a HUGE area.. none of this powerslide crap.

+insurance for the lot which would be a pain.

3> motorvation style event for imports would be unlikely aswell, there wouldnt be the same support from the import guys to do what the _TREVS_ do. To show your support for the import scene, how about entering this year? :D

I have a few more things to pick at but ill leave it.

Personally im not a fan of car shows, you only need to go once every few years or so to see the same friggin car except this time it has a pod filter on it or BMW M3 mirror.. whooop deee doo

other than that.. sounds good, good luck with it. :)

i agree with radium, most of you people are idealists but goto eb realists at times. :)

there are virtual no areas for a drift venue bar barbagello and collie, and i know barbagello doesnt like it. Insurance would cost the earth.

Now motorvation rocks, esp this years with mix of imports and domestics going at it head to head. thats how it should be. Sure an import only event would be nice thats thats what u guys have 4 6 and rotary comp for :)

Bring on the rivalry i say, especially when i want to bring my Project car out to play with its mix of domestic grunt and japo ideals of making power.. 1 day :D

There should be excells with huge bodykits, and big stereos, tv's and shit. Lancers with ralliart stickers all over 'em. Accents with checker plate on the floor. That type of thing would be sweet. They should have a comp to see who's boot rattles and falls to shit first by there subs that weigh more than the car. See who cut there springs the shortest, so there 1/4'' exaust scrapes on spped bumps. And they should hand ya a sledge hammer or two when you pay your entry so you can walk round and smash the F#ck out of these pieces of shit. :)

'spose I shouldnt bag it, it got me to work for over a week :)

Yeh, your right about slowing down an already sluggish car, but I mean come on, there are some people out there that LIKE having a show car (read: slow car) and not a 1/4mi. king.

Either way, makes no difference to me - Each to thier own I say :uh-huh:

Thought I'd weigh into this argument. Drift as a spectator concept is absolutely unworkable in conjuction with any Perth Exhibition venue - possibly with the exception of the Fremantle Passenger Terminal. Insurance is impossible to get and would cost upwards of 5k for the day. So as much as I would like to see it, I dont think its an option.

I'm all for a properly organised show without all the sh*t and glitter cars that attend the other 2 shows. I'd be quite happy to be a judge and put a few cars in

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
