what about a sau calander with our sponsors advedrts on it etc im sure we can get a somthing together.

you can do this two ways

every month with a different sponsor on the page (( month))

or have each page with the one sponsor on it so they can also give them away to there customers or sell them.

just a idea and you can have two cars per mont and make the calander for 18months so that allows for the calander to be used and able to be sold over a longer time period.

<b><b><b> Make a Calender!!!!!!!!!!! I think there'd be potential even outside of our forum!!! I get royalties now though :blink: hahaha

Hmm, yeah, it's been suggested already, and is under consideration. It would take a lot of time and money to do it properly (and we wouldn't have it done half-heartedly), and it's still early days, yet.

GOOD NEWS, THOUGH: We have put order in for the first of our new products, and you'll all see it soon.

i was thinking a great addition to the t-shirts/jackets would be the addition of the username somewhere, either across the shoulders like the rugby/football teams or near the front pocket area or both. As i was at Calder on Sunday and was standing next to people who i knew online but it wasn't until we were introduced that we realised who each other was.

Good idea!

Would you people be happy with heat-pressed lettering either on the back or just under the SAU logo? It'll be cheaper than embroidering, and you have the choice of an arched design or straight across, as well as letter size being adjusted to match the width of your shoulders.

Any samples?

i really like the idea of a jacket having thwe username on it, i would definately buy one as long as it looks good! hahaha

i reckon have it designed like a real racing teams jacket covered with the logos of all the sponsors of SAU i think that would look HECKIT

Any samples?

To give you an idea, it's the same lettering you would get on a sports-style jersey, or one you'd buy at the end of year 12 or whatever... That's the lettering I'm talking about.

The SAU logo will still be embroidered, of course!

Not sure if you've seen the jackets yet, Michael. Have a look at these, the new batch will be exactly the same as these, even though we'll now have a supplier here in Sydney. Not sure what the go is with sponsor details, I'll discuss it with the other Execs...

Put hawt sau cars on it as well.maybee faded into the background somwhere.

I say go the racing team style SAU jackets and polo shirts with sponsors on it.

A suggestion for the calendar, possibly if we have another photoshoot of member cars we could have a photo of a members car for each month with sponsors being featured as well. The photographer being one of the sponsers we promote.

For example, if you can imagine an A4 type book opened and turned on its side and hung up, the top page would be the photo of the member car and SAU logo on the top of the page, with the member name and a few car specs, then the bottom page would be where the grid with all the dates would be, as well as a heap of sponsors along the bottom. Do ya get it?

The calendar would be an 18 month calander therfore you would need 18 cars to for the photoshoot (which wouldnt be hard to gather I'd imagine). And if there was more then 18 cars we could have a pair of cars per months, which would give you 36 spaces for member cars.

What do you all think??

Some of these ideas are great, but not really economically viable... Stuff like the sunnies, boxer shorts, ciggie holders, clocks, belt buckles and car badges would be great, but the set-up fees would be a killer.

Items like the backpacks, banners, beach towels, umbrellas, beanies, pens, and CD holders would be easier to get done, but, as pointed out below, we need to know that they'll sell.

Please remember, everyone, we want genuine ideas and suggestions here. We are slowly trying to help the club grow, and funds are tight. The more people we can attract towards signing up as SAU-NSW club members, the better our situation will be! And those people who sign on as members will reap the rewards of cheaper merchandise, as well as all the other benefits of club membership, as outlined here. The problem with some items is that there are minimum runs that we will have to buy before we can even consider them. One example are the thermal travel mugs, where the minimum product run is 100 - will we be able to sell this many travel mugs, or are they going to sit on the shelves of the SAU-NSW stock room and collect dust (not to mention the money wasted on a non-selling item).

Tim, if you can find enough people for a group buy of the race suits, I'm more than happy to get them embroidered as part of a batch of the usual SAU shirts/jackets.

    • Among other things yes. Making sure to either use an oil pressure regulator or the right restrictor size for your oil pump/range of oil viscosities you intend to run, making sure you plumb the lines correctly, turbo should be placed such that it siphons properly even when the water pump isn't turning so you don't boil coolant in the turbo after shutdown, oil return should be low resistance and also preferably picking the one that is most likely to return to the pickup as opposed to some other irrelevant part of the pan. It's far from impossible to figure this out but I have seen people really, really struggle and if that's the case it's easier to just take the path of least resistance. To me, bolt-on twin turbos are a fixed cost whereas single turbo is almost unbounded.
    • Latest round of updates on the car. I purchased and installed a SWS clutch slipper to help with 60ft times and got some second-hand good condition 275/40R17 Hoosier DR2 radials. Test and tune in November showed the tyres were an upgrade over my over 15 year old mickey Thompson's and I got a 1.8 second 60ft and pb et of 11.71 but even then, that run wasn't great due to rain and driver error (the event got called off 10 minutes later fast forward to the weekend just gone 25th of Jan and there was finally a break in the weather to let racing happen. The first run the track was slippery and only managed a 12.1@129 Second run the track was better and got a new pb et and mph: 11.54@131   Lith and I then worked out that I installed the previously mentioned clutch slipper incorrectly and its never been working, and I had just been dumping the clutch the entire time, we also noticed it was on street boost and not race boost. So I lined up for a third run with the car turned up in the first two gears, but the passengers side axle objected to clutch dumps and left the chat which stopped my weekend.   so there will be another attempt in the future once I replace the tyres as they rubbed and are stuffed now. but a low 11 should be on the cards.
    • Ceramic coating and heat shielding, you mean?
    • Turbos don't require pulling the motor apart so that's "easier". I would recommend the Nismo R3 turbos instead if you want to do stock twin turbo. It doesn't make as much power as the 2530s but it's only like ~50 whp off the mark and should have better response (ball bearing CHRA, slightly smaller turbo). A local that went with a Garrett G30 and 6boost manifold recently nearly burned his car to the ground after the hood insulator started melting and and burning so if you go single turbo I recommend doing a lot of research and validation work to make sure you don't do the same.
