I figured we'd start off from a known place... namely Homebush P6.. we'll cruise together to THE PALMS from there... hopefully we get Skylines from every area... other cars are more than welcome as well, it's all about a good attitude both on the road and towards other club members.. Executives will be on hand to sign new club members up on the night as well.

Everyone who's previously said they were coming along, could you please confirm.

And also, everyone please mention if you're bringing others along too. It will make it easier for when a booking is made.

:D

How can ANYONE not feel the :wub: Let me clarify that this is not a pizza venue as such, although they might be able to dish them out... I'll find out. I was thinking of talking to management about putting together a menu package for SAU members... yep, that can be done. The reason that this can be so is because management are keen to get the group to come in... I've spoken to them about this because, if you saw the car park alone, you'd LOVE the joint.. There's parking at the front and at the back of the building... the courtyard actually faces it! I could go on but you'll see it for yourselves. I thought we could also take the opportunity to congratulate Corinne and Beau in person after learning the great news.. btw Congrats you two! As far as dates, we could aim for the 17th of August for our first one, that would give us plenty time to get the word out there... it would be nice to get cars from all over the place. As Mat wrote, people can organise their own cruise and then we can share the experience. :cheers:

Awww, thanks Marsbar. :)

Were both in for shizzle. We will just have to pick a car to take.

Does anyone know the height of P6?

    • I recently did this to my R33 with the full set from Car Mats Direct, they can't do the vinyl anymore that's advertised on the website due to a supplier issue so I ended up with the Black Loop Pile which looks great. I went all out with rubber sound deadening sheets from Repco and also added the sound deadening foam layer option with the carpet. Makes a world of difference and got rid of all the weird smells in the 29 year old interior. It was a bit of work but I'd 100% recommend it, Car Mats Direct had awesome customer service and quick postage. Replaced my seats with some sporty ones from Autotechnia while I was at it, feels like a new car.
    • 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:
