Hey, Im kinda new to the forum but would love to come...

If anyone else is coming from brisbane let me know & we can tee something up.

Cheers G

there are few of us from the qld club driving down. I am.

For Sponsors/Businesses etc - just waiting on ONE final costing to come in.

The local council have taken nearly 4 weeks for a simple figure, but without it i cannot finalise everything else as it's a major cost :(

  • 2 weeks later...

Don't understand why you wouldn't do merchandise, it's not too much trouble, easy as, and very good for the club as a whole. Everyone wants a souvenir of the event. It's one way for the clubs to make a little bit of extra money. And it's a heap of fun to organise the design etc. Mark at Decroft could give you a hand, and get it doen through Bluegum at cheap as rates. I reckon ya gotta do it, from experience, it's good for everyone.

Website is just about done now... But one minor thing overlooked was pictures - We need your help! :)

See here for more detail:

Bring whatever car you like Clive - This is the SAU Nationals.

It's as much about Skylines as it is about the SAU Community/Forums, SAU Clubs and so on.

Pretty sure we've all agreed on the trophy structure too, and whilst it has a "skyline" focus of course, there are plenty of options for non-skyline owners who've certainly not been forgotten :)

Website aint far off so i'll be sure to include all that info as well :D

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
