Many many thanks to Ian Raymond & Craig Cameron for accommodating SAU Members for an illuminating and involved learning experience about wheels to-day!!!

Everyone present I think, seemed to be immersed in all the information that was on offer.

I certainly learnt a lot.

Great to see all these friendly Members' faces too.

Sycorb who had to leave early; other Members who could only arrive late - at least we had a happy medium, by having this on an afternoon for once rather than an evening.

Corinne (DIF):- you guys may not know that 3 of us present to-day became Members in 2007 due to her encouragement on a dyno day event at Brookvale. Seems such a long time ago that God_speed, Pezhead and myself all joined up that day! 'Twas good that you came Corinne.

Had a great time, and thanks again to Ian and Craig for the session. Thanks to Terry, and other execs who put the hard yards in organising it.

Also nice to know that good quality jap rims have a good reputation with the professionals. ;)

Great day!! Thanks to all the execs for organinsing

Big thanks to Ian and Craig for great info and great presentation always great to see ones passion for good quality products

Great to see all the usual faces and meeting new faces ready for the next one!!!

As everyone else has said, massive thanks to Ian Raymond and Craig Cameron for their hospitality and the information they provided today! Every one of our tech nights has been both informative and interesting so far, and today was no exception.

Thanks again to Terry for organising it too.

A big thanks to Ian and Craig for hosting the event and to Terry for organising another awesome tech day.

It was good to catch up with everyone. Can't wait for the next one.

Thanks for the SAUNSW guys for organising the event with Ian and Craig.

It was good to finally put some faces next to the avatars and have some nerdy car chats with people.

Thanks to all involved.

Mark :)

Awww thanks Terry :) Was a good afternoon even though everyone was sweltering in the heat. (damn warehouses)

Very interesting workshop learnt some new things. Thanks to Ian Raymond & Craig Cameron also to the SAU exec committee to organise this. Good to see you guys are trying to keep true to the SAU club with these kind of events. They are great or all members new and even old. Can't wait for the next one. Sorry I had to run had to go pick up my sis. :)

A great session; aside from the heat I think the weekend afternoon format really worked well and I learned a lot - I think there was a good combination of basic and more technical information, and everyone I spoke to only had positive things to say. Thanks very much to Ian and Craig for their time, as well as Terry and the rest of the SAU Exec crew for organising it. It's stuff like this that sets the club apart from regular forums or FB-based groups.

Also Nick - loved the Clio! :)

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
