Welcome to the first MotorEx update for 2011. You may think we are a little early, but with such a huge event we are well and truly in planning and organising mode for the premier car show in Australia and entries are now open. We have up to 9 new blockbuster HOK Inauguration vehicles to uncover on Saturday morning with a further 70 spots available in the dome for Super Elite cars including the 30 invited Meguiar's Superstar finalists.

Last year at MotorEx we kicked off Street Elite Showcase, legally registered streetable cars with elite quality body, paint work, interior, engine bay but no undercarriage detailing. Street Elite Showcase proved to be extremely popular and we are expecting more entries for this rapidly growing category. 2010 was also our first year for the muscle car marvel, where original and modified muscle car clubs display their best cars to compete for the top trophy and $1000 cash. There will also be an expanded Real Street boulevard out the front of the venue, displaying up to 80 real street cars on Saturday with a different 80 on the Sunday.

As you can see we will be running the same categories as last year, which sold out 2 months prior, so don't be disappointed this year, get your entry forms in now! Entry's received before 23rd May are only $100 with entry's received after this date but before 23rd June at $150 if there are any available spaces. All categories are open to pre 48 hot rods, Street Machines and late model Hi-Tech Tuners.

legally registered streetable cars, Im not to sure on how legally registered some of these cars are going to be, dont get me wrong, I like mods for speed and handling, BUT, saying legaly regoed means the car has a legit engineering cert, there is nothing I hate more than someone saying the car is legaly registered with things like ATMO BOV or dumped on its guts, or-or-or, the list goes on.

On another note, how about sending some free stuff our way so that we can give out some of your awsome products out at one of our events, or send out a rep to one with shiny things to give away, Ill even take them for a drive in a legalish x 11ty registered streetable car (and do a skid), just have a look in this here events section of SAU NSW.

My missus always gets me MEGUIARS products for my B/Day and Xmas :thumbsup:

    • I recently got their dbw 74mm throttle body and pedal kit. It is sensational quality especially the wiring harnesses. Unfortunately I can’t answer u about the fitment to stock inlet manifold as I’m going Rahjab Racing forward plenum. Only one thing to be careful of is understand u have to pay gst and import fees if your purchase is over $1,000 in one shipment.
    • yeah i agree paint match stops it from standing out so much, oh that's actually really good to know i was wondering if it would help with air flow now actually having an outlet in the bonnet. Will have to focus on ducting into and out of the radiator now to make the most of it.
    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.
