Well hello everyone,

Becoming a member has been a long time in the making. Ive been to quite a few SAU events over the past 12 months and have enjoyed them heaps.

From SAU Monthly meetings to the show and shine, drift for dummies and who can forget DECA. DECA August '06 was my first and still reins as the best for mine. So Im sure that quite a few of you would know who I am. I was introduced to SAU through the WRX Club. Another fantastic club that I know a lot of members here are members of or have been to our events.

I would like to thank the old committee for such an awesome job last year and Im more than sure that the new team for 007 will do a fine job.

To Ash, great job of setting up the F1GP on the weekend, the Club looked sensational. To Pauly and Sarah, awesome job on the pictures and making sure everyone had fun, it was sensational. To all the entrants, Im sure there would have been PLENTY of pics taken of your cars.

Hope to see you all at a upcoming event.

Ciao

HaHa! thanks mate. I didnt even put sun screen on until I arrived here and stupidly thought I would be fine here also a few years back! I now put it on anytime in the sun. Now get out and enjoy that bustling Canberra nightlife up there!

I shall have to leave you on the Albino Bob camp, all on your own now :D

Yup the sun can be pretty damaging thats for sure.

Scotty was a shocker on Sat and Sun, very red on his head from I think Thursday.

Yup back to the Capital for the rest of the week it looks like.

Still a 50/50 chance for GOR this coming weekend.

Albino Camp, mate... yr not going anywhere lol.

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
