Just an idea, anyone ever thought of collecting images of members rides / events and making a calendar? Could be state by state, whole of OZ or both. Could even chuck in a Japan section, some nice pic's in the Japan section... could even put some cars in also:D? It could be a good way to raise funds for the forum or independent state clubs.

I am the purchasing officer for my company (inventories), we have a multi-milion account with one of the largest printing companies in Australia and could get some very high quality work done for not to much $ - this option would also require a largish print run (at least 250 units, not worth it otherwise... the more the better) If people are keen I will front the purchase price and send out orders. Other options can also be explored.

If off-set is not going to be an option (numbers) I also have multiple digital contacts that could produce a good quality (not as good as off-set) product in small numbers 1 - 100.

Someone would obviosly need to do the artwork... seems we have some talented hands in SAU. What do you think?

It is interesting that this thread has come up, i have been toying with the idea for a week or so now, and have come up with a few things.

If anyone is willing to do this ill help as much as i can.

Funky mabe you could assist?¿?

Anyway here are my ideas, im not sure if i should have a car pic behind the dates or just on the top half, or both.

let me know what you think.

James.

James...

Your artwork is great.

It seems that this "idea" may become a reality.

Funky, would you be willing to spread the word on this one (states input if they are interested) and discuss with your SAU peers any red tape that may be encountered with this project + if SAU will offically support this project. Not so much financially if they don't want to... but some revenue will obviously go toward the clubs, forum if it is successful. I have stated in original post I will finance project if enough ppl are interested.

More artwork and concepts required!

Would be good if each state could produce a calendar to get more members rides on paper. It would turn into quite a catfight if only one calendar was produced (mines better, bigger, faster, i got more rice etc...)

I would think a poll submitted by members on who's ride should be included would be the way to go. If it's an annual thing it could be quite a prestigious placement between the SAU community and inspire ppls to get there ride looking good, going fast... whatever tickles your fancy.

Anyway enough from me... lets see what can be nutted out over the next few months.

FUNKY... with your and SAU's permission of course:D

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
