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.

1. Mud - DONE

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.

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
