haha, is that suppose to be skates or skirt?? :P

So is there anything actually holding up getting the club started?

I would love to see you guys like NSW and VIC and getting into all things motorsport :P

There are only a very very small handful of people that wish to get in to the motorsport.

SAU/SA will be more of a street hoon club I believe. Because a lot are too scared or poor one of the two :D to take their cars out at Mallala. :)

As Madaz can appreciate the turnout at Mallala was woeful. Not to mention the few times Salad has attempted to get people out there. It simply does not happen.

Street hoon sort of a club..but wouldn't SAU want to try and promote the good side of these cars?? :thumbsup: take it off the streets and try and get a good police present and reputation up...

Yes I believe what you are saying is true about the too poor or too scared..But really it's not that expensive.. initial set up is a licence, fire extinguisher and a helmet (entry fee).. a set of semi slick would last a person at least 4 trackdays probably more...and a full tank of fuel and away you go..

It's a real shame :( it's never been promoted enough "as the thing to do" (I know Maz and salad have tried) to get more people interested and only one track is a bit of a set back, I didnt even know about proper motorsport until I moved to Sydney and now cant get enough of trackwork, motorkhanas and about to try hillclimbs..The cars we have are amazing and best fun when out there doing what they were ment too and taking it off the streets and being able to use your car at it's full potential in safe conditions..

Cubes your not interested in doing this sort of thing?

I see alot of the older generation in Adelaide doing motorsport type event's and in old cars and Mitsibishi GSR club have the right idea yet SAU SA doesnt try and move in that direction..

Has SAU SA tried a defensive driver training day? http://www.adrenalin.com.au/defensive-driv...otorsport/12003 just an example http://www.drivetolive.com.au/index.php/se...ntent/723187289

I am most definitely..

Im going to give it a few more sau 'events' and see who turns up to what and then make a final decision.

If no one shows to at least motorkhana's I'll can the idea and join NDCC as motorkhana's are the cheapest of cheap motor sport events.

Steve is soon to do his dyno day so once i get word on when that is going to be i can hopefully squeeze in a couple of motorkhana's.

I hope people come to the party and make an effort!!

Yeah Steve was telling me about this also and I will even make an effort to come from Sydney for it, need to come back for a visit abd catch up with peeps :)

That's the spirit!! :P

I did the DECA motorkhana with the SAU Vic boys in my mate's GTR, and it was one hell of a fun day, I'm in Joel.

OMG you did!!! HI5!! :)

SAUVics are the best bunch of people and they have the best facility (DECA) at Shepparton!!

I will be doing a DECA in Nov hopefully!!

So this topic has gone quiet again :) I really hope you guys can find the people that are willing to be on a committee and get together and get this off the ground :)

SASAU FTW!! :)

i have been looking into these motorkana type events, but i dont want to have to join another club to have to do it.

if sau sa was a registred club, hell, ill be at every event i could be at.

If there was a motorkhana to enter I would seriously reccomend DECA!!

I know its a trip but you will see what I mean if you ever enter one! They are off tap and well worth it! November .......

SA SAU FTW!!!

if a full time student with a piss poor casual job can afford to go out there, anyone can, few people need to take down a refreshing can of cement and harden the fark up :whistling:

If some one else wants to take on the responsibility of cruises etc under the title of a club by all means. There's a lot of liability associated.

As I've stated before I'm not interested in organising a 'street' club. Only a motorsport club.

If you want a 'street' club your better off with the way it is now. :(

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      It's weird to me that you say this because I'm pretty sure locals with relatively standard standalone tunes (boost/barometric compensated alpha-N) still have driveability issues when they pop intercooler hoses. Maybe with enough data I can just train some kind of model that spits out an expected grams/cyl given every sensor input except MAF like what FCA did with their Pentastar 3.6 ECU logic. Basically stock everything. The main motivation honestly is to have a sensor that can be a decent baseline source of truth. In scenarios you're describing obviously it won't work every time but it seems to me the number of corner cases that exist in MAF load is maybe not as severe and difficult to manage vs ITB alpha-N with some MAP/barometric compensation.

      What are your plans for your blow off valves? Purely plumb back? How soft will the spring in them be? AFM can be tricky to get super smooth and nice, especially depending on the rest of the system, and then can be very easily upset if something slightly changes. IE, even if you run recirc blow off valves, you could still see issues getting it to behave at certain load points as turbos might start to spool, but you release the throttle but it's not enough pressure to crack the bov open to recirc, and you can end up with reversion which can cause double metering, and hence dumping of fuel into the system, and stalling the engine.   If you're going to run a map sensor for closed loop boost control from the ECU, what makes you want to keep the AFM?

      It's not bad, it's just not flexible. And say if you have any leaks between the MAF and plenum, well then your load axis goes out the window. Here's a real world scenario, I blew off an intercooler hose last track day, as the clamp decided to Bluetooth itself somewhere. Still continued to do 2 laps and drive it to the pub for a couple of beers then home. Good luck doing that with a MAF setup

      Is MAF load really that bad? I'm not trying to do big power, my only real desire is VCAM and flex fuel support so I'm not terrified of blowing my engine apart from CA's appalling 95 RON "premium" fuel. Stuff like playing with closed loop boost control and really dialing in my transient fueling and ignition are frankly just to prove to myself I remembered something from uni.

      Alarm/immobiliser recomendations for an R33

      By PotatoCake · Posted

      Thats what ive been doing. Ive got a million questions but i know theyve probably all been answered before at some stage. Todays research included nismo heritage seat covers, s3 projector headlight retrofits and how to remove/paint the rocker covers
