And look, the boot... even my 12" sub is coming with me.. Plenty of room still back there to stuff my clothes and things in. Its amazing what you can fit in a 33!!

Anyhow, I may as well use this thread to wish everybody a final goodbye to VIC SAU. The last year or so I've owned my 33, and over that time each of the events I've attended has been great. Its what owning a skyline is all about. I've got to make some good friends, and learned so so much about skylines and turbos in general. You're all legends! Hope to catch up if I'm in Melb, or if you're up at the GC or Brissie..i'll be glad to show you around.

Best of luck organiser people for the official SAU club in future (you know who you are!). Anybody else who has a keen drive, I urge you to come along to as many meets as you can and put your name forward if you want to help the future running of the club. Just about everybody i have met in SAU has been a top bloke - and that what makes SAU so great!

And for those "lurkers" who frequent this forum (i know you're there) :), don't be shy, post a thread, post a reply, come along to an event, don't be scared! We don't bite! It takes a going to a few events to get to know everybody, but the results are well worth it. We've all been the noobs at some stage. Its true there hasn't been a whole lot of official events going on recently, but each one that has occurred and I have attended, they have been awesome. This will hopefully change over the summer, and more and more will be happening, so keep an eye up and sign up ! (should be just a few weeks away now!)

So well, guess its time to finally turn this ol' computer thingo off and get her into the 33.. and tomorrow I hit the road! and for Noof: ROCK!!

:headspin:

p.s. Smooth and Kamikazee, see you guys sometime soon!

    • I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.    
    • I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet
    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
