SAUWA used to be awesome

What happened?????

Sad to see

Been a member 11 years and it was awesome

Seemed to me it was moderated to death , moderators complained there wasn't enough time to screen for sale posts (despite instant posting on main for sale column) then closed WA for sale section

People gave up and went elsewhere

Can't moderators email out to all WA members if a specific event is organised?

Like a meet somewhere on a sunday with a cruise and a bbq?

Just to try and pump some damn life into this.

I mean how many skylines are there actually left on this forum?

Honestly, if the moderators/committee/organizers aren't interested in doing anything anymore, why are you letting them hold their positions? It feels like you need some fresh blood on this site. When was the last time the WA crew organised any events? The last sau dome day I attended wasn't even organised by a committee member, but rather by one of your regular members. Hell, if they are so lazy they closed the WA specific for sale section? f**k a duck, that's woeful.

Silviawa was the same until recently when we grabbed some new coordinators, now we have more social events than the Kardashians. Our last one was watching fnf6 at the drive-ins, I'm sure you guys could do similar.

Depending on how many skylines are left. A joint sauwa/silwa cruise is necessary.

I'm gonna go pester some mods now :)

Sounds good - the last join Sauwa/Silwa cruise was 5 years back??

Those cruises were organised by me, as were most of the last few sauwa cruises. Crumz has been a good mate of mine for years, one of the first people I met through the car scene. I had no issue with that being my part of running the club, but it was being run into the ground and I was fighting a losing battle, as can be seen here in this thread. I wanted to do more things as a club & was happy when some real direction was being aimed for...for a couple of months before nothing else was heard. Brad was organizing another skidpan day, then that idea disappeared completely. He might still be on here but he had deleted me from facebook as well so I have no idea what happened. Cruises used to be monthly lol...

How many of the mods still drives a Skyline?

Not a mod, but yes I do. I'm out of touch with who the mods are these days/which ones are still active, but it's easy to notice there is a lot less activity to get nazi over. I've met a lot of good mates and good people through cars but I agree with one of the comments earlier they were way too strict & pushing people away, making it seem a lot less friendly around here.

Next sauwa event should be a big group hug

      R34 Diff oil

      By drifter17a · Posted

      I believe mine is helical and not clutch type. During drifting one wheel was spining as if it was open diff so bought kazz 1.5 way and has sat on my shelf for the past 5 years as I want to learn shiming process and do it myself   in meantime thought I change the diff oil hence post here. So any 75-90?   i am pretty sure r34 are helical not clutch lsd as standard . That is gtt ones

      R34 Diff oil

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      No. Well, some people "seem to use redline shockproof in the diff". Most do not. I would only contemplate it if you have badly worn CW&P gears. And no. No-one in their right mind has ever put ATF into a diff. Any normal diff/gear oil of the right viscosity will do. Whatever takes your fancy. Castrol, Nulon, Penrite, Redline MT range. Whatever. It's just gears. 75W-90 or 80W-90 is typical. I think that GL-5 is hard to avoid these days, although I think that a GL-4 is probably preferred, given the vintage of the equipment. At least Redline offer a number of GL-4 oils. If you have a clutch type LSD instead of the VLSD, then of course you need a proper LSD oil. Anything from any of the same names above. If you have a helical LSD, then it does not require LSD oil, and the recco is the same as for the VLSD. You don't want the LSD friction modifiers in the oil for a non-clutch type LSD if you can avoid it.

      You may want to list it up for a little higher - This price is much lower than you may realize. Here you're pretty much selling to people who most likely already have these things on their own rigs. S chassis people eat this stuff up like you'd not believe.
