Thanks for everyone for showing their support for SAU-Vic!

We (the committee) do these things for you, the members of SAU-Vic to socialise and help promote our club!

Today was a complete success with a huge turnout and the best weather this side of the equator.

A big thanks to all the committee who put in the hard yards for organising such a great event and extra kudos to James for securing such an excellent location (we're the 1st car club eva to exhibit at Birrarung Mar)! There was a lot of logistical preperation for this and everything worked like clockwork. It really was a sign of the club maturing.

As long as we have the support of the club, the committee will always strive to put on great events.

Yeh, seeing it again reminded me .... it does have a supercallowfragalistic turbo on it...always good to see someone back in their car after they have been off the road for a while

Cant believe me and James didnt make Snowclown and Jesus get into their g strings and wash cars for not winning the Dutton bet. Woudl have been so funny watching them sit down gingerly all week and explaing to ppl how they ended up with red raw sunburnt asses ;)

Thanks to the SAU people for organising the event superbly!! First event with SAU and you guys knew who I was before I even got out of my car!! (Although I missed the entrance on the way in and went through the stupid tolls, thanks to all those running people). ;)

Great to see everyones cars nice and shiney under the thin layer of dust, lol James it really was a great venue, it was the wind. :)

Maddie even helped me on the voting, I think she goes by colors. Oh yes and the sunburn. ;)

Really nice series 2 4 door you got there, was trying to convince my wife into getting one, she didn't want it coz it was a 'skyline' and it's a hoons car :) ...

Was a perfect day for a show & shine, very nice turn out of cars. Thanks to all the committee members for another well organised event. Great to catch up with some people I haven't seen in a while, and chat to some new members as well ;)

Thanks Jack, ;) the 4 door is great cause the boot is huge, it fits the big pram and all the shopping!! I brought it after driving my husbands R33 and became hooked on getting a skyline. ;)

I think i saw u leaving as I rocked up, tidy silver 34 sedan? I thought sweet now i know where the entrance is, but being the "do-right"(read: W@nker) citizen i am, i didnt do the illegal (or so it seemed) right turn. instead did a u-turn through 2 tolls :)

Seemed like some very nice cars, i rocked up late unfortunately and then the parole officer wanted to go to the tiolet @ fed square, come back after an hour and 1/2 or so thinking its still early and theres like 3 cars left :(

Also forgot to get a voting number thingy for my window, not that i would have got anything with my interiorless car :)

James, u have to redeem yourself for the last week of Mo-Vember!!! ;)

Also i forgot to purchase an SAU/Team Wang stubbie holder, can they be bought at the next meet or at the next general meet?

Can they be bought even though im not a wang member? I really need a stubbie holder :D

Hi all, have to say it was a fantastic day and great to see the support of so many nissan owners at today's venue. This was my first time ive come out to an SAU event and have to admit it was awsome. Congrats to James and team for putting on a great show and enjoyed meeting some of the team members. I have filmed some footage of todays event if you guys would like me to put it up let me know how and when and would be happy to do so.

Cheers Val :D

Once again, thanks to everyone who organised the event for securing such a prime location on a spectacular day (minus the wind), and to the chefs for their patience in cooking for all of us on such a tiny BBQ.

Hope everyone had a good time - I know I did:

* running the mini 'which colour is better?' poll

* chatting with Vietnamese exchange students - I really hope they were asking how much the cars were and not how much I was :D

* working out bathroom waiting etiquette

* watching some crazy guy trying to get into the toilets when someone else was in there

* trying to convince ferni that jack's headlights were better :)

* not having to put on sunscreen and not getting burnt - yay melanin!

And if Al's wheels ever go missing, I hope I have a really solid alibi...

* working out bathroom waiting etiquette

* watching some crazy guy trying to get into the toilets when someone else was in there

Haha, someone barged in on me when i was in there. An old guy kept banging and banging, finally got in "oh, i didn't realise someone was in here"....what, the locked door, red sign and people queing up wasn't enough :D

    • You ask for things. You specifically state you want responsiveness. A link was provided for a far superior, more responsive option. Find a MX5 workshop that will install it for you. Maybe MX5 Mania will throw on the Fab9 kit. It seems they want to charge almost 14K installed for their kit, so if they charge you $6K to install the FAB9 kit then you'll be ahead? Though really, the 2.5 with a 2860 running low boost will more or less feel as good as anything else. It's a lot of displacement and a small turbo. Think of a more modern RB26 with one stock turbo :p TBH, truth be told I've been driving my own car, and use about 50% throttle at most for 99.9% of the time. Mr Bogan is likely similar so this is all going to be semantics for the use case he actually has. (He'll be happy with anything relative to now) However, the EFR is hands down far superior in this use case. You really, really, really, really do notice it over the Garrett or equivalent.  
    • You are correct, the earlier the torque, the earlier things snap
    • Gents, it will be getting the MX5 Mania kit and the 2.5 will be staying where it is My query was about the 0.64 or the 0.86, whilst the 0.64 might spool a bit faster, would the 0.86 be better IRT EGT and mechanical sympathy, with only a small difference in spool And as I assume I won't need alot of boost to get to 200kw, probably around 10 psi, and with max rpm at 6500, would high EGT even really be a issue with a 0.64 I'm heading into MX5 Mania at the end of Jan to discuss the install, so any info is welcome prior to that Basically have a chat and book a time so they can throw on the turbo kit, and fit a oil cooler with a thermostat, drive in drive out of course  In other news: just finished cleaning the car inside and out, it's now all ready to get covered in bugs and dirt driving to Goulburn tomorrow to lunch,  and go for a stroll along woolondilly River with the daughter and her boy, and of course, visit my grandcats and my new grandpuppy 
    • Sounds like it has an actual problem with mode select doors, or something.
    • Hope your all having a mean Xmas! If anyone happens to know any trick to using the insanely complex climate control system, I cannot get it to not be on dual zone no matter how many times I deselect it (will say it's not but both vents blow different temps). Also one side is always hot, one always cold 🤷
