Are we welcome even if not insured by shannons anymore?

:ph34r:

Nah man sorry. Members only.

Lol just kidding, of course you can come! We don't discriminate at all. We might just give you dirty looks and whisper about you when you aren't looking. (again I'm kidding)

It should be a good day. These days have been getting bigger and bigger since we had our first one December last year.

  • 3 weeks later...

Since there was a bit of a turn out last open we had, we figured lets do it again!

Where: Shannons Canberra Branch 20/2 Yallorn St Fyshwick (directions below)

When: 31st May 2014

Same as last time, a informal car display so you can come and go as you please. Not like other shows where you are locked in until 2pm. There will be a coffee van, and I think the Celica club may be doing a BBQ again.

Also, coffee is free again :woot:

Directions: If you know where the United servo is in Fyshwick (for those of you running e85 you should know) we are located just behind that. Easiest way to get into the carpark, turn onto the driveway inbetween the car wash, and the British Paints shop and head straight up and see the giant green Shannons sign. There will be plenty of signage around for the driveway.

Do they have this type of get together in other areas, I am in the Mid North Coast ?

Cheers

They're starting to bring it in in Melbourne as well. Don't know about elsewhere.

This is something they've been doing in the US for years.

From what I have heard, the US ones are a little bit bigger than ours. They expect around a 200 - 300 car turn out. I was talking to a hot rodder guy that went over to the US, and said one of their smaller BBQ meets filled a football stadium.

Thanks , so not in my area

Are there other Skyline clubs in the Mid North coast. Had a quick look but I am on snail mail at the moment, my girls used up all the GBs :w00t: bloody kids ,haha

I think Shannons have some Hot Rod get togethers and Vintage, maybe I will look into those ?

Computer back in action on the 14th, so I can go back to searching :yes:

But maybe someone can point me in the right direction

Cheers

If you want info on shows and clubs in your area, check out the Shannon's Club (shameless plug)

http://www.shannons.com.au/club/

There is plenty of stuff on there, although I think most of the events posted are the ones that we sponsor. But there are also contact details of different clubs, so it's worth an ask to find out more.

    • Is that the blue one rpm?  
    • Update 2: Today I'm f**king pissed. Some of you probably saw my thread that I opened shortly after joining this forum, "urgently need expert/experienced opinion", in which I discussed the possibility of a porous RB26 engine block which I also found hard to believe. Currently both turbos are out since the shitty braided line that was installed by whoever fitted the GT28 turbos leaked oil onto the exhaust. Today while working on the cam covers to put new gaskets and half moons in, I cleaned the side of the engine block with brake cleaner. Some time later I saw that it was still glistening with oil or coolant so I dried that off. But it was wet again shortly after. Verdict: I'm royally screwed. What you can see here (hopefully, despite shit resolution), circled in red, is a crack above the turbo oil feed. Extent is a few cm long and basically goes from #3 cylinder wall to #4 cylinder wall. It slowly lets coolant through, even without any pressure behind it. I am absolutely dumbfounded as to how this crack even formed, especially since it isn't along the cylinder as it usually is but rather a horizontal crack. Probably a few cm in length. Not sure on how to deal with this issue right now. Most likely, the only true fix is a new engine block, and even a relatively well done temporary fix requires at least a full engine teardown. Neither of those really fit my timetable right now, the car has been in my buddy's garage long enough as it is. I'm open to suggestions, but I'll be looking into ordering a new 05U block soon so I have one ready for the coming year, or whenever the current block inevitably fails fully. (Most likely once the crack reaches one of the frost plugs) I think it'd be a waste of money and time to rebuild the engine with this block. Oh and I found a rust hole on the side pocket of the trunk, which someone covered up with sealant goop, a piece of number plate and bodywork filler. Fun times. So far for every issue we fix we just find a new one that is arguably worse.
    • I have not found this no. I put one back on a couple days ago with no drama. I agree they are tight, but no need to remove anything. 
    • That is gates blue racing belt
    • Anyone found gates blue racing to be extremely tight/ almost impossible to install without moving the exhaust gear
