Couldn't resist... ...I was going to put the card back on yours... ...but then thought I'd save it for someone with out SAU stickers... :D

My internet has been playing up heaps of late... ...I'm quite lucky that I can get on this site today... ...That's why the late reply to your last spot...

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

im making another trip down there soonish

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...

    • This is lower price now given apparently nobody wants these or needs them. It's 550 but if someone sees it on SAU and wants to make an offer, please do so.
    • LS is a good motor, but it hurts my soul when I see it in a RB. Guess it fixes the oiling issues lol.
    • I'm confused. Does this qualify as "Gregging" or are you somehow avoiding the Gregging?
    • More assembly going on, with all sorts of "bolt right on bro" scenarios going on here. Smartly, PTV clearance was checked. And I say smartly because it turns out that the intake was 0.009" from piston meeting valve. This is 0.23mm. This is very not okay. A fast meeting was facilitated between engine builder in Australia and engine builder in the USA which was actually incredibly helpful and constructive actually, various ideas thrown around to get around this issue including: 1) Retard the cam timing which would have brought the exhaust valve closer to meeting piston (it was 0.065") which was uncomfortably close to begin with, and change the cam profile making it 'laggier' 2) Much larger head gaskets which would reduce compression, but half the point of this was to increase compression. 3) New set of pistons ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$) 4) All of the above 5) Get ghetto The concept is you get sticky sandpaper and stick it back to a valve, slightly larger than the valve you/I'm using, like say from a LS3/rectangle port head. You now have a very super advanced flycutting tool to modify your pistons in your block. Then you install it in your head, and attach the other end of the head to a drill. Then you just replicate your valve smashing into a piston with your spinning drill.   This is the result. Repeat many times. It is strongly recommended you have some kind of fixed stop when doing this for extremely obvious reasons because if you press too hard then you're well into apocalyptic repercussion land. The minimum clearance on the intake valve is now 0.075" this is still in the "Too close to be really comfortable" and into "It should be fine" land. Supposedly in the real world the clearances will be slightly bigger. Guess this is what happens when people push envelopes for N/A engines instead of adding boost! Time to move onto the new, upgraded, higher ratio roller rockers from Yellaterra, all tapped and threaded with a stronger bolt for better stability. Very nice. Lets see how they fit. For f**ks sake. Time to bring the grinder out for these aftermarket, machined and CNC'd heads. Looks like the new, beefier rocker from YellaTerra has gone from Bolt on part to "Bolt on part". Well, lets see how this bolt on crank scraper and windage tray goes then, shall we? There actually is more clearance than they specify for this thing, but seeing it all move as you check it is terrifying when you see it all so very very very very nearly hit things. But after all, this is what the item is designed to do after all and actually did bolt on perfectly and have enough clearance to everything and some very clear and direct instructions. So +1 to Improved Racing I suppose. As above with the windage tray on. Photo of breaker bar wonkiness for added lols. Next up: Oil pump/front cover/water pump/sump and then it's time to actually install the heads, pushrods, head bolts, valve cover gaskets and such is all there and ready to go. (except the oil pump bolts which were previously longer for more clearance with the previously perfectly installed double row timing chain). There's definitely a sense that someone other than us has been here before and done everything perfectly, or at least considered it and came up with working solutions. Perhaps the previous cam was 6deg advanced to avoid PTV issues with the milled stock heads? In any case when I attempt to sell this stuff the buyers are going to be very directly informed.
    • my catch can is pretty easy to empty but it overflows due to the blowby/crank case pressure etc. max I have drained is ~600ml even with a ~2.3L capacity. So it is not just about having to drain it out its the mess it makes down the firewall and under the car and rear passenger tyre from the overflow oil being blasted by screamer + air in general. Ending up on the ground cleaning the oil up and having oil on your arms when everyone else can chill and watch the other sessions gets old fast
