Guys if you have any suggestions for how we can improve the event for next year, post them up. One idea was to separate the classics and put them over on Colley Reserve, although we would have to really boost numbers to make it happen. Let us know what you think.

^^jap bikes would be good, what about a certain rotary bike that maybe here??

what happened to the sh@tbox car?

maybe a bigger location? Tilley reserve has a lot of car shows and seems to fit a lot there.

next year ill be able to get meguiar's rep to set up a stall if keen? sure they will be willing to pay a fee.

iron chef merch? id get a couple of stickers and one for my work (sa gov) car

above all keep what you are doing:)

Where do you draw the line on classics though?

1985 :)

Someone from the public asked me where the bikes where? Is that a possibility to get a bike display?

Yes we're more than happy to take bikes!! We need to pound some bike forums next year.

The rotary motorbike was actually going to be there this year, but the owner ended up having to work and it was only a last-minute deal to get it down there.

The Sh*tbox car failed to make it due to a rather interesting combo of a woeful attempt at graffiti art and a run-in with a bikie gang...more on that later...

We're talking about possibly letting in a few trade stands to help cover costs, and I have some new merch in the pipeline.

Would anyone be keen on an AJD Japanese parts/memorabilia swap meet? Option magazines, rare classic badges, turbos, rims, old workshop manuals etc etc etc - set up your own stand for a fee, that sort of stuff.

Maybe some promo girls in all Japan day tops!!! They would definitely help with the fundraising!! Bikini car wash anyone lol nah but seriously some more promo girls would help!

This guy knows

I like breasts as much as the next guy, but no promo girls.

Promo girls?? Trade stands?? Next you'll want a dj and entertainment and then wonder why it costs do much??

And even then it'll just turn into another car show like extreme horsepower/nu skool old skool/ smasa show and shine.

If you can't see enough eye candy at the bay on a hot day without having promo chicks, you need glasses.

All Jap Day is great as it is, a grass roots old school type show with none of the crap you don't need. It's a great social show with lots of different styles and groups coming together(except that auto salon rice crap)

I'm sure all of us agree that we are not after ricer cars or dj's!!! We love what all Japan day is & only brainstorming ideas to see if we can improve on it!! I think the rare parts/collectibles/etc swap/sell stand is an excellent idea!! Splitting the classics (if we get enough cars that is) is also a legit idea with 1985 being a wise cut off!! What would also help numbers for next year is if events didn't clash (I know that's never easy!) & more people spread the word (I know I will be :)!!!) chef did a great job & u've now got my loud mouth advertising your business to people & all Japan day for next year! Hats off to u mate

^^lol I like your attitude :)

Next year should be Feb 24 but we can bump it a week later into March if we get in early enough. Fingers crossed it doesn't clash with Clipsal though...

    • I was once told, who it was I'm to old to remember, that the length of the OEM wheels brace supplied with a vehicle is designed long enough for a average person to apply enough torque to do up, and undo the wheel nuts to the specified torque  What a average person is is anyone's guess though, i.e. average fat bastard, average knuckle head, average perfect sized human......like me Unless of course, a tyre shop has ugga dugga'd them up to "torque to yeild/strip" specs, used cross threading as natures lock tight, or a big breaker bar was used to tighten them up to get some nice stretch in the poor old wheel studs Me, I torque wheel nuts to 1 elbow joint click, lower torque settings are based of wrist clicks, higher torque settings are based of shoulder clunks, or total dislocation for anything that requires all of the torques 
    • I think the catch can design is pretty flawed. Evident in the fact that the V2 one moved to a larger top mounted filter which alone would have helped with overflow and reduce restrictions compared with the side filter. I also imagine there was a major improvement to the baffling design. It is worth mentioning that this catch can with the RB20 was never as much of an issue and the high kms RB25 is likely a part of the problem. I have gotten quotes for both a new "Vibrant Gen 3" catch can and to modify this existing ones but that may have to wait until after the track day. I hope the sump/head breathers/drains and cam splash plates will be enough
    • Yep, both. The ratio is 1.8 instead of OEM being 1.7. The rocker bodies are modified with a larger bolt hole and re-threaded with 10mm holes instead of the 8mm YT has stock. Finding out they don't actually fit the stock castings cause a lot of un-impressment by the person in the USA who tapped the new holes for the 'upgraded' YT product. He was very unhappy with them given their previous design did not require 'clearancing'
    • That too, but I think this is why she's put the work into the cam cover baffles. I mean, a catch can should only need to be a catch can, not an oil air separator also. Not to say that putting the effort into having it do a better job of oil-air sep is a waste of time, but doing the sep earlier is always going to make life better. And that should happen now anyway.
    • I think both. Higher ratio and more stout. I think at least part of his lift increase came from the rocker.
