A BIG! thanks to Cejay for organising this year, it is all well planned and looks to be a great day, but it will be a HOT day.

As Cejay said (and a lot of this is a summary of Cejay's excellent work), could we please have everyone meet at the museum between 8am and 8:30 to leave as a group to go to the show. It looks great when we all turn up together. If you can't make it at that time turn up to the show when you are able, but no guarantees there will be space.

It would be good if we can leave the museum and park in the R31-32-33-34-35? order. (or vice versa)

If you need to leave early, that is fine, but please try and park so you have an easy way out.

Park in two rows, with the rear of the cars facing each other. Please leave some room for the tent, it is big.

If you are able to, bring your own seats to sit under the tent.

I have the banner from Shell (who I have under good authority will be making a guest appearance). I also have lots of soft drinks and ice, but please bring your own water.

Remember to bring a camera, a hat and sunscreen.

I look forward to seeing everyone there.

How could I forget the classic R30.

It would be great to have the R35 that's been driving around Canberra attend.. but I don't think they would even consider it.

way to not show up you 10-15 jerkwads that wrote their names down :thumbsup:

Was a fun day out and those RC cars were hilarious once again, they were very 'handsome' as one kid described them

Overall the day went well, unfortunately a number of people didn't show up :) , too much partying at skyfire? lol. Anyway, did take some pics, but didn't really come out that well. Ended up having around 13-14 cars or so, good to see the Dr30's. Thanks to Mick again for the Federal tent and John for organising the drinks. Would of been BBQ'd ourselves without it. Would of been good to have the 34 gtr turn up like last year, but didn't happen.

The event did seem a bit quieter on a whole than last year, got a bit mystified but the organisers saying they'd lock in our cars lol, due to safety concerns, at least they didn't do that in the end.

Doe any one know if they have awards at this event or is it strictly show off your car and thanks for comming just curious

There was a couple of people who had a clip board and were taking notes on some cars, but certainly no official show and shine for our cars.

Then again we could always hold our own show and shine, it would encourage people like me to give their cars a proper wash.

      Thinking of getting a Q50 300hp and just tuning it instead of getting the Q50 Red or 400R

      By 180 wanabe · Posted

      Yeah I would like to try and get a ADM car to reduce issues with insurance. I've decided if I end up getting this car I will set it up to be a sleeper build, leave it looking stock/dad spec on the outside I wonder if you can just drop in the 400r/Red/Z ECU or better still use a flashing tool to copy the map off one. Backup the factory map and then flash the 400hp cars onto the 300hp cars ECU?

      Nah, yeah, nah. Speakers have a nominal impedance of 8 ohm that looks more like 6.4 ohm when measured. The receiver's amplifiers (all channels) are all rated to 6 ohm (I think, it's been a long time since I cared). The real problem is that many modern class D amps have aggressive protection circuitry that cuts off the fun if they think too much current is being drawn. And with my speakers having series crossovers, as opposed to more typical parallel crossovers, and big TL enclosures, they can certainly dip down to lower impedances at some frequencies and that easily triggers the protection. Pioneer receivers are somewhat famous for it, but even Denon, Onkyo, et al, all have many complaints against them across various models. It only does it when listening to music at high levels. You have to be putting your ears at risk to do it. But sometimes I want to do that. If I was serious about using it as a listening room I'd simply upgrade the amp for the front pair to a nice Rotel or something, and just use the receiver for signal handling and processing - although that would be a bit of a pain in the arse too. Have to switch on more shit, pre-amp volume vs main amp volume, etc etc.

      How long does it to enter a car on the Register of Approval Vehicles (RAV)?

      By araiko · Posted

      For example, you’ll need this approval if: you’re a car enthusiast looking to import a specialist vehicle or an older car you want to bring your vehicle with you when you move to Australia you manufacture or import special purpose vehicles or a small number of trailers each year.       Tutuapp 9Apps
