at the sau vic monthly (http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/General-Meeting-Tuesday-t325122.html) meetings we often have a guest speaker

along with the normal monthly agenda of events, up and coming, reviews, merchandise, track day reviews

we also have guest speakers who present products, information, reviews and anything interesting

in the past we've have had a few guest speakers, some of them include

phillips on xenon bulbs

snowman on his targa experience

shell on vpower and vpower racing

car cleaning products

an engineer who tested cars at nissan when the R32 GTR was out

meridian motorsport night at their workshop

we are interested in hearing what you like to see and hear about the monthly car club meetings

this is to ensure the content is aimed at you the members and is of useful purpose

please use the preselected voting or add your own feedback

we are open to all suggestions, ideas and feedback

I really liked the presentation from Chris from Centreline a few years ago. That technical info is really cool.

Workshop presentations on products and modifying tips would be good too.

We do have a few lined up over coming months incidentally :)

However this will help us as well of course :(

I think hiring an automotive engineer for a couple of hours for a Q&A might be a bit of fun. Small Entry fee at the door perhaps??

I think Committee would easily agree to cover such a cost if any are incurred in that regard. As President i certainly have no issue with that what so ever.

So... Suggestions? :D

That said I do generally prefer people to want to come along not for the money - but for what they are doing.

A lot of the people we get in are genuinely passionate about what they do and want to talk about it.

The ex-Nissan guy that Pat organised a while ago i reckon was awesome. Hasn't worked for them for 10+yrs, but was more than happy to give a chat about his time there and show some photo's and so on which really made it all the more involving :)

Sometimes (of course) Shell or someone come along to talk about various things, hell they even bring stuff to give away (and everyone likes that :down: ), and they are there for a jolly good time and are fun to talk too which is as important as the talk itself.

Someone doing a monotonous speech will send the room to sleep.

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
