I'll be wanting to join so ill bring my money!

Cash is good...$55 will cover your membership for one year :P

I will complete a form for you...you just have to supply teh answers :D

I will have to post your kit to you for the following reasons:

1. I won't be able to bring the laminator with me

2. I'm waiting on more privilege cards from Bob Jane to arrive

Cheers,

Members,

I'll be bringing an example of an SAu Jacket along (XL size) for interested people to have a look and a try on.

If you would like to order a jacket please see this THREAD and post your interest accordingly (note: non SAu Qld members will not be able to view this thread).

Still waiting on price to be confirmed by supplier, however as a guide last year's price was $85 each (I'm hoping to secure this price again this year).

Any questions, please ask me.

Cheers,

Karen

OK, I'll answer your query :D

Directions for those that will use the Gateway

If you are coming from the southside using the Gateway, you need to take the East-West Arterial Road exit off the Gateway.

You then drive down to a roundabout (you need to turn right as if you were heading for the airport).

You will now go under the Gateway and you'll be heading for another roundabout.

Go straight through the roundabout (again as if you were going to the airport)...you should very soon see the DFO on your right hand side (I hope you do, as I've never been to DFO, but have seen it from the car).

Hope this helps,

Cheers,

Karen

Directions for those that will use the Inner City Bypass

From the Riverside Expressway take the Hale Street Exit. From Coronation Drive turn left into Hale Street

Continue driving along Hale Street and continue onto the Inner City Bypass. Continue driving until the Abbotsford Road exit and take the exit.

Continue driving along Abbotsford Road...it will become Sandgate Road. Keep driving along Sandgate Road (keep in the right lane) until you see a sign for the airport...this will be the East-West Arterial Road

Turn Right into East-West Arterial Road, keep driving until you get to a roundabout.

Drive straight through the roundabout (you will now go under the Gateway) and be heading for another roundabout.

Go straight through the second roundabout and the DFO should be on your right.

Cheers,

Karen

    • Yes, but no. You need to keep the mating surfaces bare (ie the flat faces where the caliper and upright pads touch the dogbone) and also the internal threads will remain bare (unless there are no internal threads - do they use nuts on all the bolts?). So you can slow down obvious external corrosion, but not all of it. Anodising would be required to provide decent protection to the alloy, but I'm not actually sure if you should anodise something that is all about the strength. Anodising does reduce strength significantly. Like, up to 50% on some alloys for high thickness coating.
    • Thanks   does painting on aluminium work or stop them from corroding?
    • 'Sgot nothing to do with them being Japanese. The climate in the north of Japan has similarities to the UK - the cars are made in the knowledge that they have snow and salt, and they rot there. Cars made in the US rot like buggery in the US. British cars have always rotted regardless of the weather. They will rot indoors in a climate controlled bubble! The brackets are not unsafe yet, but they will get that way. They may well corrode where the bolt threads are in contact and the bolts could just jump out without warning.
    • So unsafe would you say now?   little bit of has come off, guess road salt is a nightmare for Japanese car. Mx5 here have a well known issue or rotting 
    • Dissimilar metal corrosion. Aluminium is less noble than steel/iron, and will corrode preferentially when in contact with it and a conductive solution (ie, wet road salt). Tends to suggest that those brackets should be made in steel for a shitty climate like the UK.
