SAU - NSW Show and Shine day, Sunday 28th March 2004


Recommended Posts

Hey Guys and Girls,

Well seeing as NSW managed to somehow get a club going before the rest of the states and teritories we would like to invite you all to attend our Show and Shine day. It will be the first for the club and we would love to have some people from other states and teritories come and show their rides.

This is not Auto Salon, it is a chance for every day daily drivers to get a bit of a polish and gather with other cars that are not show cars. (of course we will hopefully still have a few show cars around also)

Time: 9/10am - 3/4/5pm (tentative at this stage)

Dan.

I might come down for the drive, I usually go to Coffs Harbour every month or two so I will try and coincide a trip with that weekend. Have to provide good directions for all us out of towners.

We also secured our first real race car today... next on the shopping list is the R32 GTR race car owned by Terry Ashwood!

Ok Guys, I just heard yesterday that we Now have our CAMS Approval... we will also have 2/3 Gibson cars that will include the Winfield GTR and I believe that Race works... a race team from our very own members will be entering also... now what we need as a HGE bunch of Cars, doesn't matter the condition and we will have a HUGE (sorry dundan... needed to add the U to highlight just how big this event can be) event up on the Central Coast in March... so get your entries in ASAP...

Also on offer is a $150 gift voucher from GCG Turbo's for the winner of Best Engine... and there will be other category prizes shortly!

    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
    • Factory LSD is supposedly a 2 way with a very conservative cam. If you've already tried adding friction modifier to the diff oil and it still locks up too much for your liking you might want to adjust the ramp rate on the cam to be more like OEM instead of reducing initial torque even further. People claim the 8 kgf-m disc kit for the OEM LSD is still very streetable but I've never been able to compare everything side by side on my own.
    • Oh man, at least it sounds they've accepted they stuffed up and not put it back on you...could see some confusion if they asked if it had a hardtop or not, and you've answered truthfully but maybe not answering their real question which is what roof did it have from the factory! Glad your keeping it N/A 2.5
    • Nah, I much prefer colour matched Talking about colour matching stuff, the new/used boot lid turned up, all painted up perfectly......aaaannnndddd, it's for a power retractable hard top, not a soft top.....LOL They are now sending a boot to fit a soft top.....,  whilst frustrating, life is like that sometimes, sometimes you just need to dodge, duck, dip, dive and, ummm, dodge.
