saw a dark grey r33 on the westgate going towards the city yesterday (saturday) flying past me and a white gtr.. offcourse i had to catch up and say hi and give them the thumbs up.

Today going home from work, there was a white R34 with red brides and black nismo rims, with slotted and drilled rotors possibly DBA4000's? not sure if the above mentioned cars are SAU members.

that's bombtrack (chris)

spotted LEANBAC and his cuz partying up at The Drink club in the goldcoast.

spotted LEANBAC and funkymonkey ordering "surprise us" cocktails that tasted like good for the first two sips, then tasted like leftover ass shortly afterwards.

just a suggestion.......

nominate one day of this week where we all tie a coloured ribbon to our antennas or window to identify sau members?....or we can get off our lazy buts and become paid members to get stickers.

...either way it would be interesting to see how many "friendlys" there are out there.

The Members stickers work..

Spotted DogKnight at a wedding tonight...

Well... ...He really spotted me... ...because I'm shit with remembering faces and names...

Great to chat and I think the girls will be looking forward to the next cruise now... :laugh:

That worked out well. Had someone at the wedding to talk to all night and our partners became good friends. So now they'll be looking forward to the next cruise as long as they are both coming. I still say we stick thm in their own car at the back of the cruise.

Catch of the day

1300: Black R34 GT-T with black custom plates.. can't remember what... started with V. On Victoria Pde at around 1300.

1315: Black R33 Victoria Pde

1330: Black R32 with black rims on Russel St.

Two hobos checking out my R34 GTR as I returned to it to leave for work. They thought it was fake lol. It's not that easy to fake a stock-looking R34 GTR.

prob why i didnt see ya. yeh i went to my mums work to do some paperwork. hopefully i get a job there. so maybe i will have to keep an eye out for ur car if i get the job as its in camberwell too.

    • Means something is not set up right, tune/calibration related.  
    • Finally replaced the previous temporary mesh indicator surrounds (temporary was the last 10+ years 😂) with a 3D printed GTR style version for the front indicators. I think it looks a lot nicer than the old setup and at least the indicators now point in the correct direction rather than angled off. Needed a little bit of tweaking to deal with the intercooler piping but got there in the end. Old and new photos below. 
    • It's weird to me that you say this because I'm pretty sure locals with relatively standard standalone tunes (boost/barometric compensated alpha-N) still have driveability issues when they pop intercooler hoses. Maybe with enough data I can just train some kind of model that spits out an expected grams/cyl given every sensor input except MAF like what FCA did with their Pentastar 3.6 ECU logic. Basically stock everything. The main motivation honestly is to have a sensor that can be a decent baseline source of truth. In scenarios you're describing obviously it won't work every time but it seems to me the number of corner cases that exist in MAF load is maybe not as severe and difficult to manage vs ITB alpha-N with some MAP/barometric compensation.
    • What are your plans for your blow off valves? Purely plumb back? How soft will the spring in them be? AFM can be tricky to get super smooth and nice, especially depending on the rest of the system, and then can be very easily upset if something slightly changes. IE, even if you run recirc blow off valves, you could still see issues getting it to behave at certain load points as turbos might start to spool, but you release the throttle but it's not enough pressure to crack the bov open to recirc, and you can end up with reversion which can cause double metering, and hence dumping of fuel into the system, and stalling the engine.   If you're going to run a map sensor for closed loop boost control from the ECU, what makes you want to keep the AFM?    
    • It's not bad, it's just not flexible. And say if you have any leaks between the MAF and plenum, well then your load axis goes out the window. Here's a real world scenario, I blew off an intercooler hose last track day, as the clamp decided to Bluetooth itself somewhere. Still continued to do 2 laps and drive it to the pub for a couple of beers then home. Good luck doing that with a MAF setup
