I can finally confirm the Show'n'Shine is ready to rock and roll.

It has been on the event Calendar for a couple of months, however final confirmation was only just received.

Date: Sat 21st Nov

Time:

Move in 9am-10am

Move out 3pm-4pm

This will be a static car display. You cannot come in later then specified, or leave earlier than specified.

Your car must be on display, and stationary for the duration of the Show'n'Shine due to the nature of the area and public safety requirements.

Location: Waterfront City, Docklands

Entry is via Pearl River Road - refer to map below for details, "X" marks the spot where Marshals for the event will be waiting @ 9am

There is a Tram Stop right out the front as well, Route 30 or 48

Car Limit: A limit of 80 cars is the MAX for this event. Should we run out of room sooner (due to larger cars), we will have to close the gates.

Obviously, Members only. Anyone from the public is more than welcome to come along and checkout the display, however you will not be allowed to enter your car.

How To Enter:

Upon entry onto the grounds you will be greeted by one of our Committee members and given directions.

If you wish to have your car in the Show N Shine and be eligible for voting you must notify our team.

You will be given a "Vote for me" sheet to place on your car with your details upon arriving.

Prizes and Awards:

Trophies will be awarded for "Best in Show" in the following main categories:

• Godzilla class (32, 33, 34 GT-R, one for each) & Best overall GTR

• Godzuki class (31, 32, 33, 34 GTS/GTT one for each) & Best overall GTS/GTT

• WRC class (WRX, Evo)

• Dorifto class (Silvia platform)

• Intruder class (other)

Use of facilities:

The following must be adhered to by all Members attending the day

- Strictly walking pace for cars, hazard lights ON at all times whilst in motion.

- No loud engine revving, starting of engines once stationary, silly compressor nuisance noises.

- No unwanted behaviour on (or when leaving) the park grounds.

- No dumping of rubbish.

IF members do not adhere to the above rules, Committee may ask you to leave. Keep in mind the club will be in the public spotlight and stupidity will not be tolerated.

Other Info:

- Bring whatever you may require for the duration, seats, hats etc. There is no leaving once you are in position until the end time of the show.

- The Piazza has PLENTY of food/beverage stores around, you will not need to go far for any requirements there.

- And issues on the day, see the people in Hi-Vis vests immediately.

Apologies for the late notice, I've only been advised of this

All cars must be Road Registered. So no towing race cars without some sort of rego.

Any questions please post up - see everyone there.

Cheers

Ash

Also guys, this is an absolutely fantastic location...it's right in the middle of the shops/restaurants, so rest assured we will be receiving ALOT of attention from the public :)

There is no "signups" as such guys, its a case of whoever the first 80 are there, get in.

That said, we've never had 80 cars to a S'n'S in any year, thus far.

Closest we have come to 80 was in 2006 @ Birrung Mar. We had approx 65 form my rough counting of a photo.

So allowing for a bit of club growth, few more cars etc, the 80 'cap' should get everyone in is what i am hoping for here.

I just have to cap it due to space issues as i cannot use the entire pier due to restrictions of the venue chosen this year.

Not much notice, but I will try and get the R ready ;)

It's been on the Events Calendar for nearly 2 months now :)

So there has been plenty of notice. This is just the "details" thread.

You don't need details to lock a date into your calendar and/or get prepared do you? :D

I urge everyone to check the calendar regularly! I was unable to announce sooner due to a few issues with the venue/contacts etc.

Best i could do this time, ideally i would have had it up 2 weeks ago with further details.

I also announce things when i can @ General Meetings - pity attendance has been... 'lacking' of late :bunny:

LOL Ash brings out the claws. It's true though guys, if you come to general meetings more often / print out the calendar then you will have all the notice you need.

Ash are you going to put down the list of attendance somewhere in this thread?

We have a committee meeting tonight - so i will bring that up.

Being you'll need to be a paying member to be covered by insurance, non-members won't be able to get out onto the Pier, we won't be letting anyone without a membership to move/enter a car.

In.

Just as long as the car is there it is entered correct?

Reason I ask is I may not be bringing the car down personally.

should be plenty of spectating paying members to drive your car in. fits within the guidelines. (as your a member also)

    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
    • Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?
    • This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.
    • I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
    • STOP GOOGLING FAB9 MAKE BORG WARNER EFR KITS FOR THE NC. THEY PACKAGE AN EFR 6758. DO NOTHING ELSE. CAPS INTENTIONAL. THE BEST RESPONSIVE SETUP EXISTS FOR YOUR CAR, AND HAS BEEN PROVEN FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW. IN B4 "BUT I WANT EVEN MORE RESPONSE, IN A SIMPLER, MORE RELIABLE PACKAGE" WHICH IS A LS.
