Because of the venue, places are limited this year and pre-registration is essential.

Looks like they're going the All Japan Day route and not promoting club displays (bit of a shame really) but doesn't stop us from all entering.

Just gave them a call, you can display as a club if you all rock up on time, but no banners etc can be staked into the ground. Basically there wont be much room between cars, so clubs will have to rock up together to be together. Payment must be made on the day, but pre-registration is essential, the reserve holds 250 cars. 3 trophies only, 1st 2nd and 3rd, and a peoples choice award will be given.

I think the whole scene has changed - used to be the big adelaide clubs that'd enter scs (peaks, iblis, plat, etc) but they're now almost all gone. SCS has always been about the clubs.. and doing the friendly inter-club thing.

Anywayz.. i've got my form in. We should organise a pre-meet before we enter I think.

Meet at the SAU clubrooms = Vilis on friday nights ;)

Geez 1 month notice aint too long! I've found SCS in previous years to pretty good and laid back compared with autosalon - more cars, more car clubs, cheaper entry fees for spectators and those entering their cars... more focused towards car clubs coming together I guess?

But yeah, I'm in - car just came out of the panel beaters today looking schmicker than ever :P

So, lets gather a list of entrants up:

Last year was pretty good, our display looked pretty good and it was a fun day just hangin out with everyone. We were lucky we werent next to the sprinklers when they went off - that was bad, but funny. Poor people whos boots and tents etc got soaked.

Yeh SCS isnt like it use to be years ago, but would still be good to see a display...

    • Oh yeah forgot to also mention need to also unplug the IACV as well. Thanks for the reminder @MBS206 Unplugging the TPS takes it out of closed loop so you're able to screw down the IACV without the ECU trying to add/subtract timing to maintain the idle (not sure PowerFC can even do this, but Nistune and the OEM definitely does)
    • For sale is my 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T, tuned to 234 kW / 313 hp. I've had the car for a few years as my daily driver. The car is original (as far as Skylines go), with only a few minor upgrades to enhance performance and driving experience, as typical for such a car of its age. Overall, it is in great condition with no body rust, thanks to its earlier import date. It features a top-notch security system (not literally, but it's great!) with remote start and still functional 4-wheel steering via HICAS. It comes with several performance and handling upgrades, including:     Hypergear 450HP Turbocharger running 17 PSI boost, installed mid-2021 by Jaustech     550cc injectors     Nistune ECU     Front-Mount Return-Flow Intercooler     X-Force Stainless Steel Exhaust     Upgraded engine mounts     Bottom end bearings replaced     BC Coilovers     Lenso DR1 rims     Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE003 TL 245/40R18 97W tires, fitted early 2023 The interior is mostly stock, with a few additions:     Viper Satellite Tracking System with remote start     Bluetooth Double-Din Touchscreen Head Unit     Steering wheel cover Cons:     A few paint imperfections here and there     Driver’s seat shows more wear than the others. It's not torn at all, but I've added a seat cover to protect its condition. I also have a CarVX Vehicle History report available for serious buyers, so you don’t need to purchase it yourself. Price: $26,000 ONO.
    • I've had two suzukis in the past have an extremely hard time turning over and not starting after sitting for a few weeks. Ended up the alternator would seize up causing the starter to force. Same issue both times.  Maybe they're sourcing their alternators from the same place...
    • Ah right. Maybe my rb just loves chewing through batteries lol.
    • On the R34 can't you just unplug the IACV? This is the way I've always done it on the R33. Disconnect IACV, get it idling around 650rpm, and then do a power reset on the ECU to get it to relearn idle (factory ECU).   The big reason no one has touched on as to why you'd want to get the base idle right, is that it means the computer needs to make smaller adjustments to get a good idle at 700-750rpm.   Also, cleaning the IACV won't normally make the car suddenly idle lower or higher. The main issue with the IACV gumming up is that the valve sticks. This means the inputs the ECU gives, aren't translating to changes in air flow. This can cause idle choppy ness as the ECU is now needing to give a lot of input to get movement, but then it moves too far, and then has to do the same in reverse, and it can mean the ECU can't catch stalls quickly either.
