yeah i remember the hibeaming. if you want cards, pm kaz or rock up to one of the meetings. she's got lots

hahah

i wouldn't call a large popcorn chicken combo and a WW snack box shitloads :D

did we work out who owns the white 33 parked next to the ute?

nope i saw it yesterday and no doubt it will be there today. ive never seen it park it just appears and i go early there, maybe i should camp out to give him an SAU card? haha

he arrives before we get there and he leaves after

maybe its abandoned and has keys inside :D

naa gotta leave a spotted card or 73 of them for every time i see it.

Spotted a Black RS Wagon with SAU stickers at the Shell servo on corner of Napoleon and Wellington Rds. Recognised the driver and waived. Having just attended a funeral on the weekend wasnt in the mood for a chat, sorry mate.

saw a R33 GTR plates were V5PEC on cnr of cheltnham rd and springvale rd and bout 50 metres behind it saw a black R33 with personalised plates and SAU stickers and then saw a Yellow R34 with SAU stickers pulling out of the side street next to keysborough maccas and turning on to cheltnham rd

yeah i remember the hibeaming. if you want cards, pm kaz or rock up to one of the meetings. she's got lots

I'll have to show up one day...

I was thinking today you'll have to tag another member when you see them parked somewhere... ...It could start an Uber-Elite Spotted thread...

Last saturday up at Halls Gap spotted a blue 34... ...it kinda just flashed past going down hill as we were going up... ...I was in my girlfriends friends boyfriends Audi A4... ...Back seat passenger side... ...So I didn't get a good look...

this tag thing could be interesting. the tagee must tag another sau member - not the their tagger. leave a note/card saying you're it and post up what you tagged.

Come to think of it... ...This now reminds me of a game that I used to play with some guys I used to work with and their uni friends...

It is a "Assassin / Ring of Death" game... ...Each player is given a target and they've got to take them out... ...they then move onto their targets target... ...etc... ...The winner is declared after everyone else has been taken out or the games time limit runs out...

You can also get bonus points for taking out your target in creative ways... ...example... ...One of my targets came into the shop to pick up a book he ordered... ...I'd put it aside for him and placed a note inside it saying "BOOM" (this book had a bomb hidden in it, you're out)... ...I rewrapped it in shrink wrap and snickered it up and made sure there was a large note on it saying who it was for... ...Unfortunately for me... ...He opened the book in the store "killing" a number of innocent bystanders...

I'll see if I can dig up the rules... ...Or spend a bit of time writing out the ones I remember... ...Could be a fun little game to run for members over the coming months with all the spring and summer cruises...

    • It's interesting seeing everyone talk about what level of risk they are happy to tolerate.  Building a GTR always has a level of risk, you could be that lucky guy that drops 20k on the engine build alone and still has the thing go pop on the dyno. Life is fun like that.  The way I see it, the thing is a toy to be enjoyed. I'd be happy to turn up the power on stock motor and limit the risk with sensible tuning and engine protection. If it still goes pop, it is what it is. The car isn't a daily driver so it can happily sit while a plan is made to sort it out.  Given this thing will be a street car only, I really feel it's worth the (relatively small if managed well) risk to turn the power up to around 350KW on e85.  I don't think anyone getting into the skyline game now is doing it out of logic. Surely it is a purely emotional decision so I'm not sure how important it is to think about the engine build logically. The heart wants what it wants.  @joshuaho96 little note for Josh, I run my 525 pump flat out all the time and through the factory lines without any issues. (excluding the melting connectors, that's sorted now. we'll pretend it never happened lol)
    • But the Nexus S3 is very expensive and won't be as purpose-built for the application as a separate electronic boost controller :^) More seriously my pet issue here would be that the Walbro 525 running at 100% duty cycle is going to require more FPR than the stock setup can handle. I'm also pretty sure from what I've seen elsewhere you might want to slow down the pump regardless unless you're going to come up with some way of upsizing the fuel lines coming from the fuel tank. Factory 8mm fuel line doesn't actually flow very much if you want to keep pressure drop down between the fuel pump outlet and FPR. If you really want to "keep it simple" I would run only as much pump as you need and source a fuel pump controller to slow down the pump in the vain hope of being able to run stock-style FPRs which are pretty dinky. Or just use the HICAS lines and it should be mostly fine. OP should also really think hard about what profile they'd want out of the turbo. My pet choice here would be the G1 profile rather than anything higher power but YMMV. I already think ~stock turbo lag is pretty bad so I don't want to make it worse. In "gentle canyon cruising" I found that I spent a lot of time around 4-4.5k RPM. I also recommend DIYing labor if you're detail-oriented enough. Costs are high for labor + if you do it yourself you can be your own quality control.
    • GTSBoy is again on the money. My actual advice? Sell the car. (really). For what it's worth as is, you can sidegrade into something much better. If you care about function then this is the actual move. If you want a Skyline to perform, set aside about $100K to do it. This is NOT a typo. You will see right away these are two very different mindsets. Realistically we're talking full restomod for any Skyline still kicking around. Have an honest think about which one you are.. and what you want to do, and how much you want to invest in this (with no return).
    • I promise there will be no chance of replacing the rad support....  It is barely twisted and it's way more likely to just be driven around with a slightly twisty support. As long as the headlight can be bolted in there then no harm no foul lol. The reo may need to be un-bent a little but truth be told if it all somewhat lines up and is hidden when the car is assembled the level of f**ks will be 0.0 
    • this thread delivers, once again Skyline owners, our cars spend more time off the road than on the road
