I would be happy to retail any merchandise you have from our retail shop out the front of the workshop. Let me know if you are at all interested.

Yep LOOF we have heaps of SAU Lanyards in stock, you can get them at pretty much any event.

Re stickers, there are 2 types available, 1 large on for the windscreen that says www.skylinesaustralia.com, and the other small one that says SAU and has the stoveplate taillights.

Either are $10 delivered to club members :P

We also have shirts, hats and jackets available already, see the link in my sig :D

or what about a wallet with SAU

and mouse pad with SAU that might be cool too

or even put to gether a SAU DVD with all the events over the year to be published to the forum and members

regards andrew

Ideas added to list... Thanks Andrew.

Mouse pad is up high on the agenda, as it's pretty easy to organise and have done.

Will look into the other two later on, hopefully.

I bet you all have a Sydway..

Do a nice leather bound cover.Say in black with the red and white SAU on front.

And dont do seat covers.. :P in a Skyline :woot:

Do a Drivers seat cover for when its at the workshop getting a tune..

Say in red or yellow or even blue with SAU on it but washable..

Just another handy hint from

SAU vic............................Cheers

How about either a small sticker for the quarter window or a card you can put on the dash with SAU logo and your ID/avatar pic on it? When your out cruisin or parked you can display your card with your ID and peeps will know/recognise who you are on the site and can put names/cars/avatars/id's together. Sometimes you talk to people on the site for ages and only know them by thier ID, it would help people get to know each other at show n shine or cruises etc. If it was a display card you could keep it in the glove box and display it whenever you wanted, a sticker is more permanent so maybe not as good an idea. It would only have to be credit card size or a bit bigger.....

    • This is lower price now given apparently nobody wants these or needs them. It's 550 but if someone sees it on SAU and wants to make an offer, please do so.
    • LS is a good motor, but it hurts my soul when I see it in a RB. Guess it fixes the oiling issues lol.
    • I'm confused. Does this qualify as "Gregging" or are you somehow avoiding the Gregging?
    • More assembly going on, with all sorts of "bolt right on bro" scenarios going on here. Smartly, PTV clearance was checked. And I say smartly because it turns out that the intake was 0.009" from piston meeting valve. This is 0.23mm. This is very not okay. A fast meeting was facilitated between engine builder in Australia and engine builder in the USA which was actually incredibly helpful and constructive actually, various ideas thrown around to get around this issue including: 1) Retard the cam timing which would have brought the exhaust valve closer to meeting piston (it was 0.065") which was uncomfortably close to begin with, and change the cam profile making it 'laggier' 2) Much larger head gaskets which would reduce compression, but half the point of this was to increase compression. 3) New set of pistons ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$) 4) All of the above 5) Get ghetto The concept is you get sticky sandpaper and stick it back to a valve, slightly larger than the valve you/I'm using, like say from a LS3/rectangle port head. You now have a very super advanced flycutting tool to modify your pistons in your block. Then you install it in your head, and attach the other end of the head to a drill. Then you just replicate your valve smashing into a piston with your spinning drill.   This is the result. Repeat many times. It is strongly recommended you have some kind of fixed stop when doing this for extremely obvious reasons because if you press too hard then you're well into apocalyptic repercussion land. The minimum clearance on the intake valve is now 0.075" this is still in the "Too close to be really comfortable" and into "It should be fine" land. Supposedly in the real world the clearances will be slightly bigger. Guess this is what happens when people push envelopes for N/A engines instead of adding boost! Time to move onto the new, upgraded, higher ratio roller rockers from Yellaterra, all tapped and threaded with a stronger bolt for better stability. Very nice. Lets see how they fit. For f**ks sake. Time to bring the grinder out for these aftermarket, machined and CNC'd heads. Looks like the new, beefier rocker from YellaTerra has gone from Bolt on part to "Bolt on part". Well, lets see how this bolt on crank scraper and windage tray goes then, shall we? There actually is more clearance than they specify for this thing, but seeing it all move as you check it is terrifying when you see it all so very very very very nearly hit things. But after all, this is what the item is designed to do after all and actually did bolt on perfectly and have enough clearance to everything and some very clear and direct instructions. So +1 to Improved Racing I suppose. As above with the windage tray on. Photo of breaker bar wonkiness for added lols. Next up: Oil pump/front cover/water pump/sump and then it's time to actually install the heads, pushrods, head bolts, valve cover gaskets and such is all there and ready to go. (except the oil pump bolts which were previously longer for more clearance with the previously perfectly installed double row timing chain). There's definitely a sense that someone other than us has been here before and done everything perfectly, or at least considered it and came up with working solutions. Perhaps the previous cam was 6deg advanced to avoid PTV issues with the milled stock heads? In any case when I attempt to sell this stuff the buyers are going to be very directly informed.
    • my catch can is pretty easy to empty but it overflows due to the blowby/crank case pressure etc. max I have drained is ~600ml even with a ~2.3L capacity. So it is not just about having to drain it out its the mess it makes down the firewall and under the car and rear passenger tyre from the overflow oil being blasted by screamer + air in general. Ending up on the ground cleaning the oil up and having oil on your arms when everyone else can chill and watch the other sessions gets old fast
