yeah at the end of the day, the club is a means to get a bunch of mates who share a general & common interest, whether it be a track day, car show, dyno day or just dinner & drinks it doesn't really matter.......it hopefully keeps the rev-heads off the streets and alive a little bit longer. :)

fishy, if you're actually serious, then that is the most ill thought statement you've ever made.

With that kinda a logic, what's the point of anyone having any car club then?!

I really don't understand so called motor enthusiasts that just want to be constant knockers towards anything new trying to get off the ground........not that car clubs in general are anything new.

I really hope you were only saying that "tongue in cheek" fishy cause you're better than that.

if you really want to discuss my personal decision on why i haven't joined SAU:SA yet, i'll happily discuss it with you via PM or face to face/phone (i had written more than this, but figured this is the best way to go about things)

oh, and i was reminding vu that some of us may not have seen his sugestion... =\

edit: probably should just enphasise the word YET (used in both posts)

My list for Loxton.

1. Fit N1 vent inserts - easy.

2. Re-leather steering wheel - dont be a pussy, buy a nardi.

3. Fix the intermittent 2000rpm idle - workshops are awesome for shit like this.

4. Fit Coilovers - easy.

5. Fit my Gramlights - easier. could get my sister to do it for you if youre not sure. lol.

6. Replace air conditioner compressor - got a spare weekend?

does anyone know if there is any decent cars for sale, thats under or around 15k?

There are lots Kye. What, specifically, did you have in mind?

Look hard enough and you can find a 32 GTR in need of some TLC.

I know of a 4 door 33 for sale :)

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
