Much, much better than last year. Shame I couldn't stay for longer than I would have liked, but being wrecked from work & an important day tomorrow didn't get to see as much of it as I wanted to. Got to see some friendly, familiar faces as well which was good :yes: Oh and Paul.

:ninja:

saw leo and dan and paul and a few other guys

saw Kym and Kat as i left

then i spotted a white r33 with rays rims with plates sky2nv on the road that continues from riverside drive (whatever that is called - the road the convention centre is on anyway)

i parked right near the end of that road near a hotel - $7 all day parking FTW!!!

Not a bad show. I only spent an hour there though. Who ever had the blue 34 in the SAUWA stand that thing is bloody hot, really tidy bodykit. Even my gf was drooling over it and she isnt a skyline fan.

by n e chance was ur g/f like ewarin a dark blue top n u were holdin the camera?

i saw a couple keep walkin around ma car then takin p ho tos n stuff =P

Was orrite ^^. Got into the final battle at the juiced 2 stand! but lost :thumbsup: gave us an s14 to use....would have won if i had been able to use the r33 hahaha! BUt im happy got my SAU shirt woo woo! C-Red's 1JZ powered s14 was awse and def good to meet some of the skyline peeps!

Bok Bok, dude you own a R34 GTR, we are all happy to see such a great peice of motoring goddness willing to be seen next to our cars. It is a great car and dont go changing it to much it is great just the way it is. It was also great to see lots of SAUWA members at the show and hope to see you all out and about at the next cruise. Thanks to Dan the Man, micheal and paully for the effort to get things going.

By the way Mr Plod was out and about after the show and I did see him pull a couple of cars that had just come out of the show over to the side of the road. Of course didnt hang around as I had to sneek passed to get home myself. Such a big downer on what I would call a good weekend and show. Oh well, what can you do?

yeha tatlk about paranoia leavin the place:P

but is that the best they can do hang outside the front waitin for everyone tno drive out?

point of the show is for people to enjoy the show n show off their rides

i mean yeah there are idiots out there that ruin it for everyone but glad to see there were no road blackages :thumbsup:

hehe Ash, I feel special now Kym & I were the only ones with capital letters in that sentence :cool:

Autosalon was good guys! 2 full days there was tiring and boring though - got today off to recover :) Congrats Paul for winning dyno comp! I was right on your tail thou... just 150kw less, no biggie :)

Excellent stand this year guys, very impressed.

SAUWA was one of the best there (but im a bit biased :cool: )...

I thing is i really think Autosalon organisers needed to showcase the dyno in the center (with extracter fans etc,etc), as sometimes you stuggle to even work out what car was on the dyno...

    • Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice  
    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
    • My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..
    • The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.
    • Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
