Bringing an unregistered car to a CLUB CRUISE does not promote a good image towards SAU VIC and it's responsible members. On behalf of the committee, and other club members, i ask you to leave the car at home and hitch a ride with another member. As Adam has stated, there will be heaps more events/cruises since summer has started , and i hope to see you registered car then.

I have just fitted a set of ADR approved braided brake and clutch lines. I purchased these for $420 (brakes: front and rear) and $70 (clutch). The brakes are a two piece hose with a block in the middle, just like the originals, and bolt up in the original fittings. I have not yet felt the brakes as the car is still at the w/shop.

My car should be ready for this one

As discussed last night, Matt. These are great prices and i will be heading down there ASAP. Thanks for your effort !

Was a truely great weekend. A BIG thanks to Andrew for taking me on the passenger session. Experiencing all those G's really was a sensational feeling. Waiting for my car to be ready and i will be soon joining all of you out there. I will of course start from the rear of the skyline field . Hope to see you all soon.

MATT, STILL WAITING ON THE PRICES TO GOT FOR RE55's (17" RIMS). OR ARE YOU JUST B.S'ing

YES Matt, answer the damn question!

Am also interested to know the prices for the RE55's

PS: what area do you live in.

If you can't fix it yourself, take it to an auto elec.

Rebuild the engine. No need to spend big money on turbo, injectors, etc. If you can afford it, put in forged pistons, rod bolts and prep the bottom end for any future upgrades. Denham don't always assume that this is caused by high millage and that odometer is wound back. Spun bearings can be caused by a lack of oil (oil pressure) at high revs, hence the need to put an N1 oil pump when going for big hp. Make sure the oil pump is not worn, etc. Even if your engine is std., just like a fuel pump, these things can also fail. Really unlucky buddy, wish you all the best!

Shivam and are are probably coming down on Saturday mid/late afternoon, just for one night.

Geoff, we would appreciate all the help that members have to offer. But it is better to pursue potential sponsors with all the infomation. We encourage all members to scout around and establish wether the company may be interested, then inform them that you will pass their details on to the committee and one of us will organise a meeting and finalise the details. We are all working towards improving SAU Vic and providing the best deals for SAU Vic members

Hey Chris, Shivam and i are thinking of coming up this weekend to get pi......, am ah hmmmm......, i mean support our fellow skyline enthusiests . Any chance we could crash at your mates house? Alan

Hey nark maybe the previous owner will come down from Japan and show you the car's true potential .

Sponsorships are being handled by the committee, as we have made up a proposal brochure to present to potential sponsors. This explains all aspects of the club and outlines our goals. Myself and Shan (funky money) are handling this, but as a committee we have so far decided (this may change) to hold off sponsors till later this year or early next year. This is to ensure that all other aspects of the club have been taken care of and are operating smoothly. It is also good to show potential sponsors that after only "X" amount of days/months we have "YYY" amount of members. I would also like to present a previous newsletter, just to show some form of documentation. Please feel free to pass on the names and contact details to Shan, or myself, for any potential sponsors. Then as a committee we will decide wether we want SAU Vic to be associated with that particular company and pursue it as required. PS: Race Brakes has been on the "potential list" for a while . We will all be grateful for any other suggestions.

PS: no need for a fire extinguiser, etc. All you need is: - Helmet - LONG SLEEVE cotton shirt/t-shirt - Jeans - Runners/sneekers/shoes (no thongs, slippers, etc.) - Current/valid drivers licence - Roadworthy car

Rob, this is a winton "open day", it is not organised by SAU, there will be all types of cars there. My car has a couple of small/minor issues and is due for a service, so i will be heading to Phillip Island, to spectate and get pissed . Good Luck and have fun, i wish i could come.

I second what Ash stated above

What a GREAT day! Was very pleased to see sooo many people turn up, on such a cold day. Good to finally see all our hard work materialise into paying members. Thanks to everyone that joined and a big thanks to the people that helped out.

I should be there.

HEY Chris, dont forget me I have sent you and Adz a pm each, last night .

Yea, i really was impressed at the end of it and am more than happy with the product. I am not using braided lines as i am satisfied that the blue hose will be sufficant. They don't look as good, but i am not too fussed about that. The original quote was using straight fittings. When we were playing around with fittings and positions we came to the conclusion that all connectors had to be 45deg's. The cost increase is only about $20, as angled fittings are more expensive. Chris and Adam have already stated that they are purchasing the first batch tomorrow (Sat.), so get in touch with them, if you haven't.

If your gearbox has hunting issues it has nothing to go with the transcooler. Wether it is a cheapy or a better brand the only difference is how much heat it will disippate. Even the cheapy will have a positive effect on cooling the oil, as long as it does not restrict the flow.

Thanks for the post Andrew, will be getting in tough soon.
