Sau-vic @ 2008 Ing F1 Gp - Autosalon Display


Recommended Posts

note to self: don't enter the f1 gp auto salon with NS regardless of how late an entry they accept.

my car's been tampered with on more than one occasion. worst of which the front grill shows signs of attempted removal, not limited to broken clips :P

Yeah i remembered when u came and complained to me and a few others in the Autosalon Marque. Clearly there isn't enough security..only 1-2 security guards watching a 200 metre stretch of cars is just pathetic. I had people constantly going inside the flags and touching my car and even sitting on my friends motorbike on display. But as Alisa (autosalon) said to me, its out of her power as its the F1's security and everyone enters their cars at there own risk.

As soon as you said your name you turned to your friends and walked off.

I even said bye to you as i was driving out, and you had this "pffffft wtf" look on your face; as if i just tried to pick you up. :D I must admit, i cnbf walking through the stand today, due to the heat.

I was disappointed with the placement of SAU, as it appeared that we were chucked in the far corner, away from everyone. The excuse was to be closer to the dyno, but hardly anyone from SAU wanted to go on the dyno.

Believe me Al...i doubt she (Ferah) intended to offend you, i think she was just more stressed about how to get home last night more than anything. And maybe because she was Sun burnt which made things worse. :P

Heres a couple of pics of my car from the 'Team Ignite' stand and on the dyno

Haha.....no offence was taken :P

As stated, the whole weekend was way too hot, just to walk round and talk to everyone in the stand. Hope others didn't get offended by most of the SAU crew staying put under the shade of the SAU macque, but it was one of the only means of escape from the sun :)

I'm sure there'll be other events, etc, where we'll all catch up.

i came down to the gp, first one. had a look at the auto salon display, some very nice cars there! looks like some of you had good seats in grandstands! i only had general admission but it was still good!!!

Thats so unfair that u jumped conclusions of me already. Im sorry if I had offended you, i didnt do it intentionally. Maybe if I get the chance to meet u again in better circumstances it would be better hey :(

btw, Tai congratz on the award for taking out best interior! Well deserved as always..and ur boot was da shit hahaa!!

Here's a couple of pics I have from yesterday.

Awesome shots guys,

Snowy mate you could have sold them to the papers they look awesome.

Had a tops time at the GP would have been heaps better if we could see more...

Hope no one suffered too much from the heat my Girlfriend did... No matter how much water you drink it can still get to you.

WOW, don't feel so bad now that I couldn't make it..

OPERATION DUST STORM FTL!!!!

Rosco's car looked like it had been sitting in a storage facility for years after the event...

Nothing beats the plush greens of the golf course on the other side of the lake, cars stayed relatively clean when i attended a couple years back....

WOW, don't feel so bad now that I couldn't make it..

Hey Ferah, no conclusions were made and no offense taken.

Sounds like what i wrote has drawn a misleading picture, hopefully i haven't now offended you as that was not my intension.

Tai a well deserved award mate, congrates :nyaanyaa:

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
