  1. Thankyou to everyone who came down and had fun with us! Full Results and Times here : http://www.sauvic.com.au/download/deca/SAUVICMotorkhanaResults20151212.xlsx
  2. Actually yeah, now that I think about it I remember a couple of years ago there were a few guys I know with 33's who had some wire loops and a carabeana hooking them together as their secondary...
  3. Why would it be gone? And why is it BS? I personally am glad that my bonnet won't come flying up and destroy itself / windscreen / roof / visibility at 200+km/h down a straight. The majority of cars that we run on the track (Skylines, etc) DO have a secondary restraint from factory (1. Pulling the in-cabin release, 2. Pulling the under-bonnet hook) so we pass this safety standard without doing anything. Lots of older cars dont, so if anything goes wrong it'll be a huge issue for them on the track
  4. Even in this imaginary world, I'm still forever alone Thanks Moh
  5. Just don't do what a mate of mine from uni did... Left it for 2 months, drove it anyway... got flashed by a red light camera after getting stuck behind a truck in a turning lane and didn't see the light changing.... $$$$$$ Unregistered Vehicle fine + $$$$$$ New Rego costs + $$$ Red light camera fine = The better part of $1500, didn't see him at any of the Uni Bar nights for the next few months after that
  6. How many cars do you have? Pulsar <- assume Rego #1 Something else <- assume Rego #2 Gloria <- thought this was driven often? + Daily Work Hilux
  7. You might be able to help it spool up to full boost a bit faster by keeping it fully shut longer... or progressively opening it up a bit early to avoid a boost spike past the set value... Depends what alterable settings your EBC actually provides. Either way, you're not going to be able to: 1. Take advantage of the altered boost curve without a touchup tune to take the different airflow into account. 2. Visibly see what differences its making to the boost curve without graphing PSI to RPM, once again, on the dyno. You COULD see how different it feels by changing it and then taking it for a drive, but you're risking bad air/fuel mixtures (and it'll feel slow, even if you've nailed the best possible boost curve for your engine, because its not tuned for it)
  8. Thanks for coming everyone! A massive thanks to all the outgoing execs for all the work put in over the past few years, and by no means is it a goodbye, as there's still plenty of work to be done together to grow the club even more. The experience and knowledge you guys possess is crucial in helping to keep the club on track going into the future.
  9. So who's coming to the SAUVIC AGM tonight and is going to vote me into VP? All of you? Good. See you in a few hours for some Spam Parmas at Bridies.
  10. Entry List is updated
  11. You keep buying shit cars?
  12. Shoot an email off to [email protected] with your names and we'll make sure you're in the same group Also, bring more friends, the more the merrier! You just need to convince them that they can have an absolute ball even in a stock Yaris if they want, with nearly no chance of damaging it.
  13. I accept the VP Nomination
  14. There's still quite a few spots left Get in quick though they're filling up, bring your friends and make an awesome day of it
  15. Tell me someone on 80k is going to happily doing workload of a 100k position? 100k for 5 years = 5 years of work for the company and $500k in your pocket (before tax) vs 80k for 5 years = 4 years of half-arsed work for the company (They'll need to take on another employee to cover the 5th year so they're out $600 instead of $500k), barely making your house payments if anything goes wrong in your life (sick family, babies, etc). What happens if situations change and you want to change companies after 3 years? Do they need to pay out 60k pro-rata on your last day? Thats a huge financial liability for the company.
  16. 80% Salary = less chance for you to save money over 4 years and put into your mortgage or investments. Then you're without work for a full year, and in my experience you have higher outgoings when you're not working as you've got so much extra free time to fill
  17. Business impact too high... They'd need to hire a replacement for 12 months, hiring/training/integration costs
  18. 2nd'd for the 2 horse race
  19. Step 1. Pull it off the road for at least 6 months of headfarks and dremelling
  20. Spent most of yesterday arvo chopping out rotted wooden support beams out of the bottom of a fiberglass boat. So I'm itchy as fark today. The day started with "Lets replace the soft plywood floor" and escalated into a fully stripped hull and plans to replace seating / supports / wakeboard rope riser pole, etc
  21. Greg would switch to Gluten Free diet because Ric told him its fashionable, then he would develop an actual intolerance to it. Then his engine would blow up.
  22. Tofu is like a sponge, it'll soak up whatever it's in... So if it tastes like crap, it's the rest of the dish's fault. son of rajab of the Fries burgers and chips are all vegetarian, and after a few drinks (the only time I ever go there) they're amazing.
  23. ^ someone put him on a watch list already
  24. Might want to mention what kind of alarm you've got? Aftermarket one in a Skyline? Stock one in your Audi A4?
