FYI, payments have been received from the following Postcodes for Cinema Tickets, in reverse order (ie from most recent to first)...

2755, 2747, 2750, 2755, 2166, 2163, 2750, 2044, 2567, 2560, 2227, 2541, 2615, 2557, 2527, 2777, 2206, 2127, 2914, 2795, 2785, 2113, 4210, 2615, 2203, 2795, 2166, 2095, 5013, 2138, 2232, 2148. So far, so good :rofl2:

Got word to-day from Terry Ashwood that he'll be coming down from Qld for our R32 Event - as guest and dignitary.

He'll be signing the Award Certificates. :D

Black_Widow ie Nick, our fellow Organiser, has been able to secure some Car-care gifts. Many, many thanks to Meguiars for their generosity. :) Perhaps, you can tell us more about your efforts Nick?

Perhaps some of you who have already purchased tickets would like to organise groups? :D Then you can enter the cinema as a group?

Sorry that we can't discount - but then you understand why - the charity needs your money.

At least the cinema has been paid for now.

Many thanks for this, go to our sponsors Top Secret Imports and Just Jap :D

Yes Thomas, this last E-mail has come through this morning.

Tickets are being sent to you to-day.

Look forward to seeing 2 of you on the big day. :)

We're glad that we organisers were talked out of hiring Cinema #2 by Top Secret Imports.

It had 128 seats, and now, 100 seats have been taken already.

If you haven't purchased your cinema tickets yet, we would press the point that you buy them soon. Only $15 per ticket. :)

You won't get your cars into the secure carpark at Lilianfels if thats where they are being suggested to stay...

No that's not the place Ben. ;)

We have a place under wraps & it's suitable for low lip cars.

Even the establishment's manager is coming with his R33 GT-R.

And we'll reveal the establishment in our 'Thank You's after the Event.

Someone on the forum asked me if this Event was exclusively for Skylines.

The answer is emphatically NO.

All SAUers (+ their partners/family/friends) are welcome to this fantastic occasion!

The beneficiaries will be SAU & The Children's Hospital Westmead!

Updated Info:- payments have been received from the following Postcodes, for Cinema Tickets, in reverse order (ie from most recent to first)...

2077, 2250, 3132, 2128, 2173, 2615, 2755, 2747, 2750, 2755, 2166, 2163, 2750, 2044, 2567, 2560, 2227, 2541, 2615, 2557, 2527, 2777, 2206, 2127, 2914, 2795, 2785, 2113, 4210, 2615, 2203, 2795, 2166, 2095, 5013, 2138, 2232, 2148. :(

It's quite remarkable to see from 2-6 tix going to most Postcodes. Seems like a family day is in order! ;)

...and our organisers are chuffed!

Are there many servo's with 98 if your heading down from brisbane just asking because my car really chews the juice ?

Should be fine, so long as you stay on the Pacific (rather than N. England).

We'd love some more Queenslanders! :(

And Jez...

A convoy is coming up from Canberra.

You might as well organise one too. :mad:

I recall Terry buying that off you... - and some of us commented that you undercharged him... LOL

I think that anything that'll help this event's atmosphere will be good John. We're thinking about an SAU table atm.

Just Jap & Top Secret Imports will have their displays just inside & outside the front doors.

When you buy your tix, let me know in the e-mail what you have in mind > I'll put it to the others. Many thanks for your kind gesture! :thumbsup:

I dont think you'd want to do that... last time I left a plastic scale model car on the parcel shelf it warped and partially melted due to the sun!

Should be right because people should be driving within the law. thay way doesnt matter if the cops are in bathurst or right behind you.

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
