ok guys due to a discussion with a few of us in the members rides thread, it seems that an SAU-ACT photshoot will be a nice idea.

basically we just need as many of us as possible to get together so we can take some group photos of our rides (and us). :)

so we will need to find a good time so that lots of us can come (e.g. not at 11am on a tuesday lol) perhaps something like latish afternoon on a weekend as the sun will be highlighting the cars nicely and most of us will be able to make it.

so we will need to decide:

Time:

Location: best spots or locations for photos?

also does anyone have good equipment? or r u good at photography? if anyone is then we'd be happy to have you there to take pics. my sister-in-law is a graphic designer and has access to some really nice printing equipment so perhaps i can get some really nice, big, glossy prints made up after and give them out on a following meet?

anyway, feel free to put up your ideas and oppinions. lets make it a really nice one!!! :(

Andrew.

p.s. yes Gts_Duy: you can bring the seca lol!!!

For sure, loving the idea.

I've got a decent camera, not great, but okay. Has taken many a photo in 1600x1200 resolution, absolutely fine for online purposes, but not so good if you want these high-res glossies.

Anyway, great idea, we can hit up a BBQ, cruise, and photos in one day.

Is anyone particularly NOT free any weekend?

I'm screwed for almost every Saturday,so Sundays are naturally better...Having said that,I might be lucky enough to have the second weekend in September as my rostered weekend off.Maybe a day polishing/detailing on Sat',photo's and cruise on Sun'?Either way,I'm in if it's Sunday Setember 12th!

i reckon i'd be up for that. A chance to meet you all again and have alook at all the purrty cars. also i think the weekend of the 11th 12 sounds good as i've already got it off work and my b-day is the 13th :wassup: . party on the saturday night and a mad cruise on the sunday, wat a sick b-day this is gonna be. :)

yep, sounds sweet for me, i cant beleive the coincidence that your birthdays are on the 13th september....mine is on the 27th of april!!!!! how weird!!!!

lol Angus if u need a ride i should be able to take you, unless u live in woop woop, in that case i suggest u hitch-hike and take a ride from a stranger :headspin:

I don't have a Skyline but can I come along for the cruise???

i dont have a car and i'll be coming (i hope)

and andrew (veilside 33) umm yeah a lift would be nice, but ill ask my parents again and get back to you. Ohh and i live in chisholm.

ohh and whytry ill take that comment bout mine and your age as a compliment, as im glad im finally 15 :headspin:

    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
    • Not required but appreciated. Super Coppermix Twin even the non-competition model feels like the pedal is noticeably heavier than stock which was pretty well judged IMO. I'll be swapping in the Nismo operating cylinder soon to see how that feels.  Personally I haven't felt anything that justifies replacing the damping loop, at least compared to more modern stuff where the clutch delay valve is actually quite noticeable.
    • He made that comment in my thread - In my case the vents ARE to lower engine heat, when the car is not moving, which is the only scenario I have heat problems with the aircon on, sitting in traffic, on 40C+ days. I can't imagine a scenario that this NC needs any at this point in time. I do not know if it will actually make my cooling when the car is MOVING worse, and I sincerely hope that won't be the case. If it does, well, um, f**k.
    • Nice, thanks. Thats why I was asking, there'd been a fair bit of discussion in the E90 world about vents and where it makes sense to put one (ie, over the filters is not great as that is inline or slightly behind the struts and in higher pressure area). I struggle with air flow and pressures. It sill weirds me out that a radiator in the boot can work. 
    • Neither really Vents, when located in the right place, will lower the engine bay "pressure", as air has a path to escape, thus lowering the engine bay pressure, thus.....improving the efficiency on the coolant stack (read: IC, condenser, radiator) This is why the Blits vented bonnet on my 33 worked so well, the vent was in the front 1/3 of the bonnet, which put it right after the radiator  If the vents are to far back toward the windscreen, which is a high pressure zone, it can actually force air into the engine bay, causing higher pressure and effectively loosing efficiency on the cooling stack, like the fab of raising the rear of the bonnet, which does allow heat to escape, but only when the car isn't moving  There's heaps of cool "fluid dynamics" info out there, but, I'll attach a video of a 'Merican joint that focuses on "Miatas" as I found it when looking into vents for mine, they explain it way better than me
