If we don't have to send heavy gear in the post across AUS that's generally preferred. Avoiding post at all costs is clearly better for both parties.

Why get rid of a local classifieds where people can go and view the parts before purchase?!?

Most eastern states crew dont want to buy from WA anyways! We are so isolated.

Please remove the CLOSED on WA for sale section. - (YOU CAN STILL POST IN IT)

Whoever's made the decision to consolidate all of AUS in one for sale thread, There's WAAAAY TOO MANY POSTS EACH DAY. People's posts get lost and it was a waste of time writing out a long-winded ad.

Common Sense please..

Thanks.

i agree with you. I have not been back to the site for over a year and I have just noticed this. We are so isolated from the eastern states and its nice to be able to look at the local classified than a general national one. Looking at the general national one, in the titles it doesnt say where the car or part is from until you click into the thead :(

I agree with the sentiment, but until there are moderators that are actually here enough to maintain the site, its just not going to work.

As with SAUWA in general, its only as good as the people who are willing to keep it running, and there just isnt enough of them about anymore :(

Agreed. Total fail. Sauwa doesn't do anything or have anything. The only thing It did have that was useful was the for sale section and now it doesn't even have that.

SAUWA Admins aren't enthusiasts anymore they just hang around for an occassional chat/post with each other and don't give 2 fks about cruises, meet ups, events or generally anything else. Ie Ive been a paid member for few years now and still never received any card or sticker despite multiple msgs.

May as well shut down the WA section in my opinion.

I haven't seen Char at a single monthly SAUWA breakfast or express interest in the SimWorld thread, just sayin'

If you want something to happen don't just whinge do something about it! Want a cruise or similar? Organise one! Why create more events if you don't come to the few that are actually organised?

Is there a monthly SAUWA breakfast?? When and where??

First Friday of every month, 7:00am in the city. We don't discriminate, all are welcome :)

Aww I thought I was clever.

Works when you don't get muppets posting shit like "LOL I totally saw this for $20 and you're asking $500, you should give it to me for $5" in every thread.

    • Fk me, I guess next time I will try to use the onsite attachments feature. I find it hard to work with so far though because I can't move the images to where I want them to be. I will try to make a separate post with just images. As for lifting. The work I need to do for now involves the exhaust and engine mainly, so the arm covering the jacking points is not a problem. But I don't want to bend in the whole sill or underfloor by lifting the car at the original jack points. I found some rubber blocks, 125 by 125 with a 10mm wide and 10mm deep cutout, which I'm hoping will work for not hitting the jacking rail. The sidemember, as seen in the service manual, are the rectangular frame rails that come from the front of the car and go alongside the gearbox and downpipe. Those that get crushed inwards if you use them for a floorjack. They are already slightly bent in from being used to hoist by other people. I think cutting off the jacking points and welding or bolting on a reinforcement plate along the sill might not be a dumb idea. Or is it dumb?     A 2 post hoist is what I'm gonna work with, but not for any underbody work, just leaky engine and exhaust work so far. Depends on what else I find that might need immediate attention. For metalwork on the sills I think I'd just bring the car to a panel beater. What's your take on getting rid of the original jacking rails and putting reinforcement plates along the sills?
    • Yeah titanium always looks cool but I don't need that, just regular pipes would be fine. But I am really struggling to find any full hardpipe kit that is still for sale.
    • Saruthewhite hasn’t been on our site since November 2016 sorry mate
    • Note when Duncan says that, he means "when you're not using the correct lifting points on the sills, because you want to work on the sills. A 2 post hoist is not appropriate for everything anyway, and working on the sills is a good example of that, because the arms go under ths sills anyway. You're better off finding another way to support the car off the ground. Beyond that everything else D said is correct. Only the dedicated jacking points are the correct place to lift. Anywhere else is incorrect, extra caution and awareness must be used, etc etc.
