*Pats IMACUL8's back*

I know my next car will still be an import, probably an S15, and I know I want to be part of SAU still. Any Import-focussed car/member should be allowed to join.

So long as they don't mind being in a group called "Skylines Australia" when their car isn't one.

Like Dan said, there are quite a few members that don't own skylines anymore but are still fans, and have been here since the SDU days, WAY before whoreville SAU...

Even looking at the range of car's that RICE has, we still welcome everyone....

From my understanding SAUWA (the club) is not to change anything (environment wise) about the current "forums SAU" .... offering the same skylines enthusiasts paradise for the same low, low price :) Memberships is just a means of fundraising .... theres nothing to say anyone has to join .... the forums will still be around. So where this became an us n them "well we've been here longer *insert whinge here*" situation im unsure :confused: None of the people on the committee strike me as the Nazi type that are going to throw out non skyline owners.

in the imortal words of Tyler Derton " u are not the car u drive, u are not ure ****ing khakis"

Membership should be for people not for cars and as Strich9 said, most of the smart ones will switch to s15's soon anyway :D

Mmmmm pretty key ring, i like shiny's :drooling:

Hey i dont think there is any need to start giving shit to people who have only been on this forum for 2 months or so eg. ME

The point of this thread was to get info and chuck a few ideas around about the whole club idea.

Theres no need to go down the "Hey ive been here longer than you so your opinon means nothing" track.

From my limited experience on this forum i found that the majority of users have good advice and r friendly and im sure any club formed as part of this forum will be enjoyed by all regardless of wat kind of cars can join.

Ok, looks like we've thrashed that out well enough, and the consensus is that anyone can join, which I fully support.

With luck we'll have the incorporated club started early next year and will start taking members, the commitee wil meet soon to discuss costs etc.

If anyone wants to have comments about the club, up until we setup a more permanent SAUWA area then feel free to comment here:D

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
