ok. Nice and simple. This is the 100% Gauranteed "i'll be in" thread.

If you want to join, post here. No bullshi(t posts. Not whoring or anything.

If your genuinely able to make it 100%, and want to have a car in... this is the place to say so.

Jameszilla i dont think has much free time, no fault of his own, so i'll probably be doing a fair portion.

I'll gauge by interest how many cars etc whether or not to do this.

It wont be a huge stand like MAS (april i think) it'll be a much more select group as organising the last one was a mission due to its sheer size, so once a year for a massive stand is enough :D

Also, looking for some nice wild cars, wild body kits, wild power, wild stereo installs... basically anything wild. Just a stock R34 GTR is wild :)

The theme (from what people have expressed to me lately) is more 'WoW" factor this time, for a change to the past two MAS entry.

So, we'll set out to achieve that.

R34 GT-T (black) with GTR kit, lowered sus and AVS Model 5's? Don't know if the car will be ready, but if this meets criteria, i'll do everything i can to get it ready. No point rushing things if it's not going be to good enough.

cheers.

Just on this... we pretty much decided we would only be puting all our efforts into one a year... so running the 2nd one will be up to all of those who are entering and attending so u wont need James to sort it all out.

Ni - Ash is going to take over for James for this one but he want to kind of limit it to say 8 cars.

And all cars to have something special about them. It is the semi-finals afterall so we want to keep the cars as traditional MAS quality cars.

But yeah we'll only have one big MAS stand per year - and we'll also have a SAU Vic show and shine day like what was done with SAU NSW this year.

Yer... entering under the SAU banner of course, but as stated by Snowie (my day-time voice)

It wont be big. Its simply not feasible. But it'll be mor MAS flavoured, than a "club" style thing if that makes any sense.

As with 8-10 (or even a few more) cars we wont make an impression unless there is WoW factor. Not like 20 skylines, that itself makes a statement.

Today after a bit of thought/debate.

"rough" criteria as follows. You'd only need to fit one not all of em :rofl:

And you cant have a bit of each too.

1) 250+rwkw - RWD, or 300+rwkw for 4wd (as 250kw is too easy for a GTR)

- all KW cars must run on the dyno.

2) Body Kit of some kind

3) Some sorta Custom Stereo install

4) Interesting re-spray colour

5) Cutsom Interior

Or 6) R34 GTR in bayside blue cause they are just SO whats hot :):cheers:

So that being said should give you more of an idea of what is being aimed for.

If you dont match, dont worry, the annual SAU-MASsive effort will be on next year for everyone.

DJ - your car has more RICE than MAS itself :rofl:

Kam - put your stock seats in! And come down 'n rock the dyno with me.

Anyone wats to PM me (if they dont feel comfy posting in the thread) thats fine too :rofl:

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
