SAUVic - keeping me from being completely mindless with boredom.

Lowlights:

Another year of a broken track car sitting around and unable to fix it.

PI not having the pleasure of me cutting laps there.

A lot of time not being able to get out, let alone drive a car.

More surgery and the very slow recovery.

Weather that can't make its friggin mind up.

18 month overdue from the absolute date I wanted to be back in Qld.

The thought of having to leave SAUVic friends behind when the time comes....

A shot I took on one of the few dives I got out on.

... Of course a track day costs money...

Nothing in this world is free, if it was i would be drunk every day of my life.

Checkout the Vic Events section for the track stuff, they are all posted there.

My highlight... i would say the Wakefield trip with Snowy earlier on in the year. Was just his family & me... and the others we met there.

ad an absolute ball as it was something i hadnt done before.

So it was something i wont forget in a hurry :(

can we get SAU/SAUV site stats...maybe new vic member stats.

Would be intresting to see. I was reviewing the site stats from my FTO forum...we had a massive increase on 2006 with active and keyboard warrior memebrs.

Dezz will account for the significant increase in his first full calendar year as a forum user so the results might be slightly biased with one user making up the normal usage for 50 on the FTO forum! :nyaanyaa:

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
