Just did a quick search, and it looks like parking in the area is expensive, especially if you don't make it! lol

Does anyone know if there is cheap parking on weekends there? I can't imagine making it by 10AM...

This is open events :P

You are more than welcome to come along mate and checkout the display, it is a good showcase for our club and often we get people joining this high calibur group :P

However to participate you ned to be a member, so look forward to seeing you there!

There are a few hotels (medina) on Latrobe, all you do is get a tram. Easy as :cool:

As for parking not in the event, it is normal city pricing really. Everywhere is expensive these days CBD wise.

You can part on Victoria St however. It will be a 4hr park and about $5.

Then you simply can catch a tram down Latrobe St, it will drop you off about 100 meters from where we will be.

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.

We'll have that covered. It will be a SAU Vic member driving it.

If I decide to enter my car I'll need to unload if from the trailer because of EPA/Defect issues. Don't spose that'll be easy Ash?

It's upto you to organise :P

Although i would imagine it would not be that difficult - what will be difficult is storing a car with a trailer attached to it in the surrounding area's...

I'll be there but without a car this time. I thought my car looked pretty bad last year, now almost 12 months have gone by and it's even worse, absolute drift p1g, sporting a lack of a front bar these days too, thanks Leon :)

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
