Firstly, thank you to all those who nominated thier cars for the calendar. Unfortunately not everyone can fit in.

I would like to invite everyone who IS NOT listed below to attend a get together (TBC). We'll take individual shots of your cars, and put them together INSIDE THE FRONT COVER.

This way your car will still be in the Calendar!!!

Please don't say "Fu<k you, if I'm not on a page to myself then I'm not gonna be in it all"

Remember that there'll probably be a new calendar late next year, and we'll use entirely different cars. You will have been on the forums (in the club) a whole year longer, and have heaps more mods by then.

The Cars/members below have been chosen due to their length of time on the forums, regular attendance at events (official and unofficial) and some have been thrown in due to the uniqueness of their car.

I believe all except 1, are full members of SAU QLD.

Preliminary list of pages.

Front Cover - Genesis, Jlnewton, Willo

Inside Cover - Individual shots of "Everyone Else"

1. Mud - DONE

2. V8SkylineMan, Alfadog - DONE

3. MRR34 - DONE

I am working on time frames to get photography done.

Thanks again to everyone :D

cool. Very cool. Just a thought, though i don't want to bring the tone of this down, but maybe with a view to moving units etc... what do you think of promo girls?

I mean either way, I'm still going to purchase a couple and so will most of us, but to sell it on to other people (lets face it, predominantly guys) would this enhance our marketability?

Though then this begs more questions, where do we find the girls, the money for the girls thus increasing the number of units that need to be shifted to break even.

I'm not sold on the idea that we need girls, but i told an ex gf about the calender and she asked are we going to have girls to help sell it, so i thought I'd post it up see what you thought.

cheers, and thanks to Mud for all the effort he's putting in.

Mud's stated there would be no chicks/promo girls in the calander which is understandable. From a marketing point of view, it may come in handy but in the end, the calander would then be brought for the pure purpose of the guys wanting to see the chicks in the calander and not the actual skylines themselves.

In the end, the calander comes down to the skylines being pictured throughout the calander and that is our main sole of this forum - the skyline. We envy them with our lives and I think I would speak for most of us skyline owners.... anyone who dare bags or disowns a skyline in hatred, they'll probably end up regretting what they say to another skyline owner.

i think its only being sold to SAU members or something like that.

I thought its being sold to anyone now who wants one cause SAUQLD couldnt get enough interest in it just from the members. Hence why MUD brought it out to the public's interest of non-SAUQLD members as well.

It is for anyone to purchase.

However, it is not going to be on every newstand across QLD, only for sale through the forums.

Therefore the people who come accross it for sale will be Skyline enthusiasts, and will be buying it for the car content.

Plus we'd need to produce 1000's which I don't have the moolah for.

How many are you going to produce dude?

If your after some help with some $$'s up front, let me know.

I just completed the success of all the whirlpool.net.au lanyards. Made just over $2,000 which more then half of that went towards whirlpool.net.au as a donation, rest going towards the next merchant product that im about to start work on.

How many do you think we can sell?

I was thinking maybe 100?

Those that have replied saying they'll grab a copy have said they'll have 2. I know I'll be getting one for myself and also one for a work college down south in melbourne.

If you want some help on where to get the calendar produced at a good price, let me know. I can also help with all cost factoring (as in pricing the calendar for the purchase of it, etc) as well as helping with providing some of the funds to get it off the ground.

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
