we might have that.

I dont know if we can offer a free membership to anybody tho, we are all out of pocket so far for what we have done and there is a LOT MORE yet to pay for, so once we cover costs there wont be much left i fear.

i think most people would be glad to pay a membership fee (donation) to keep the club up and running it will also help to find out who is serious about helping and who isnt

and those who want to help get rewarded by membership related discounts and bonuses etc

i reckon it will be good incentive to help club members work together

A paid for membership is also going to get the people who really want whats best for the club.

I like the idea of Just Jap coming along for the ride. One of the more decent and helpful workshops around thats for sure.

Guys your forgetting something....

Non Profit organisation and paid memberships dont go hand in hand...

Paid membership = revenue which with the numbers will possibly mean profit which is not allowed.

Doing it like that would require a registered business to be setup.

which has its advantages..

The registered business is being setup as we speak, we will have an abn and several bank accounts. There will be charges to becme a member with several advantages.

I am quite good friends with Mark up at hills so i will hit him up for sponsorship.

they're straight up membership fees. all the money raised will go back into the club for events, shirts, newsletters, hosting, accounting fees etc etc.

no profit will be made as all the money will go back into the club. this is the basic definition of a non-profit organisation.

Well,,,,if we want sponsors from the corporate world,,,,we gotta stop the swearing,,,,basically everybody bar the founders are guilty of it. SDU must be cringing.....I could list all the words right now and everyone of then will work. Maybe I should give a demo.....here go's,,,No stuff it....

I would be against the address bit. I think a membership number and photo will be fine.

Call me Paraniod ............ Too much crap still going on with our cars...lets protect our babies, not let the baddies know where they sleep.

Yeh, address not good ;) Nice design though. What about a design in portrait aswell as landscape ? We could have them like passes instead of cards ... then all we need is some bands with metal bits on the end and clear plastic sleeve ID holders ...

Anyone working in an environment which requires security passes should know what I'm talking about.

They're easy to wear and more stylin than a card ....

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
