Haven't been on here for along time too. Had my eye on that gtr as well but ended up buying a midnight purple r33 gtr with a bit done too it. How did the dyno go?

Sau has become a ghost town, hasn't it :(

Edited by Pal

Total ghost town. I've tried contacting admins and watnot about trying to get it back up and running but get no replies.

PAL did you get Richards gtr?

was a small shit fight regarding that around 18 months ago of people who were keen to give it a red hot shot to get the forum going again but admins not willing to hand over the reigns

Yup, GTST V-Spec last on what, 2 years ago? More? Pretty rediculous ...

I'm sure Prank could change things up a bit if people wanted to put their hands up to be moderators / WA Execs to try and get the forum cranking again.

In addition to GTSTVspec I see Dan_the_man (WA Exec) likewise hasn't been on for over a year. Probably just comes down to people volunteering. It's a shame because the NSW / VIC / QLD clubs seem to get some decent track events etc going.

It is pretty sad to see the forum in a ghost town state. I joined 9 years ago and it was a hive of activity back then. Lots of events going on all the time. I don't even have a Skyline any more. I've sold both the R33 and the R34 and don't even live in Perth at the moment (in Canada for a two year work trip), but I still come on here every so often to see how things are going. Met a lot of great people through this club. Hopefully things pick up again one day.

I must say though, the club went through a stage of many people not attending events. I think the members were a bit spoilt by some very good mods who organised a lot of events. Then people started thinking that there were plenty of events to choose from, so they didn't need to attend all the events. Attendance to events started to drop so the mods started to lose interest. They didn't feel that their effort was valued any more. I guess that is what stopped them from trying. I have been to cruises where literally 5 members would show up. It is pretty disheartening when you plan a cruise, do a test run, print out 50-100 maps and 5 cars turn up.

Not trying to point fingers or anything, just want to give a little perspective. Hopefully things turn around in the future. It will take a team of enthusiastic members to drive it though.

at the end of the day everyone i know off this forum, is on antilag.com, which i have advertised several cruises on and no one has attended purely off advertising on SAU.

maybe just let it die, look at the WA Scene on SAU we just reset the top KPH over the standing 1km and not a single post?

Hello Michael I think you may have used to cruise with us a bit in the 'RICE' days? (I used to own a White JZX90 Toyota Cresta)

I have been a member of SAU almost 10 years now and certainly agree the WA Section is now a ghost town.

Admittedly I have only owned my GTR for a couple of years now so haven't paid much attention to this site before then.
