Im still happy to help, yes im busy with work and other commitments, but it would be great to see an SAU display go ahead. We dont need lighting.. we have a backdrop, and we can gather a few props to go with that.

It doesnt have to be over the top display, just something simple but effective.

Thanks shane for getting this thread started.

Hey Shane, just to clarify is this for SAU display? if so have you sorted the cars that you'll be using. Whats the date aswell? If you need a hand let me no, may even throw the GTR in there if Iam aloud to spam the car with ISC advertising material :)

Meeting this Sunday afternoon at Aussie Pizza House - West trc (just up from the BP) for those whose cars will be ready for Autosalon. Time can be negotiated but I was going to suggest 1:00pm

Please come ready to plan the display, and pay your entrance fee.

Those who might have a car ready, and want to enter can you please PM me, (you will need to decide and pay by next Sunday 20th July). At this stage we only want people who are definite, and any others will be a welcomed bonus later on.

Confirmed entrants that I know off at this stage are:

Myself - 4 door 33

Craig - 33 Coupe

Aaron - aqua 32?

Shane - GTR?

There will NOT be an SAU display this year, we only managed to get 5 confirmed entries today, so the plug has been pulled.

Thanks to those who were willing to enter and either attended the meeting or let me know in advance they couldnt make it.

    • Seemed to be good when Jeff owned it but they did a shit job on my car, probably worth a think before spending 10's of thousands of dollars where they might be cutting corners
    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
