Tsunami Fundraiser Show'n'Shine Aftermath


Recommended Posts

lol same here, took shitloads of pics of the Impul R33R from QLD and then the camera ran out of juice.

will upload em when they're off the card anyways.

Heaps of people - great weather - good cause - majority were good hot cars.

Took a few pics but have left my camera transfer USB cord at work so will post up tomorrow.

Anyone heard about how the MASSIVE CRUSE went? It took at least 8-10 min for all cars to exit the car park approx. 50-60 cars or more? (correct me if I'm wrong) Hope all went well even though I don't think any SAU guys tagged along.

Yeah it was a great day.

Huge kudos to Pete (Base junky) for the effort he put in. Big thumbs up also to Gemma for spending almost the whole day at the entrance taking the money, plus everyone helping out with the bbq.

I may sounds like a toss here but I was really proud to be part of SAU yesterday. The fact that almost everyone was wearing their shirts and that basically it was SAU guys doing everything made the club look very professional.

Also - great to see that the SAU spirit was alive and well at the end of the day where most of us decided to go to the pub rather than on the cruise. Top work.

And also to keep up with tradition I got sunburnt again.

PUB??? I would have been in for that...didnt want to drve my car because of the gasket leak and the fact that i cant lock the dirvers door at the moment...but pub, well they have cabs for that:)

Woudl have been good to have a looksie, but lifting wet carprt and trying to fix the door were my priorities:(

Hey guys.

Had a great day, got sunburnt, raised some money.

Big thanks to the hard core hard working SAU guys who ran the BBQ for me without a hitch.

Extra thanks to XXXGTR who drove out to get drinks twice to help out.

MASSIVE thanks to my awesome girlfriend who worked at the entrance all day and had to put up with people who "I don't want to pay $10 to put my car in, so I'm just going to park over in the other bit and put my bonnet up anyway and stand by my car anyway" tightarse wankers.

We raised a total of $2101.75 for the Asia Tsunami Appeal and ended up with around 700 snags left over which will be frozen for use at an SAU BBQ shortly!

Thanks for everyone who participated in the event, poos to you who didn't!

Cheers

BASS OUT

thanks for the beer afterwards too SAU guys.

Great turnout by supporters.

Excellent work to the SAU crew who participated and helped out where they could.

As Snowey said, Pete and Gemma did awesome jobs all day. The BBQ went without a hitch with the Adz and James at the helm.

I also noticed that the BBQ was tended to by SAU peeps all day which goes to show the dedication of the SAU committee and members for a good cause.

So Pete, when's the BBQ at yr house mate?? :D

Sunburnt...again. Crazy thing is after all the events we've had this summer - WHY HAVEN'T WE LEARNT ANYTHING? :)

Good to see everyone in their shirts, bar me of course, still wearing an 04 Autosalon shirt. :D Fixed that up though thanks to James' car boot sale.

My photos were pretty disappointing when I got home - just what I needed after frying in the sun for a few hours! I'll clean up a few and give them to you Pete but no credit for those. That said, RiggaP has some fine photos there at the beginning of the post. Good work.

Really good day! I got a little burnt, and no I havn't learnt :( I was in the shade 95% of the day so I'm thinking the suns getting sneaky, hehe. Pete, awesome job with the organisation, can't belive how much work it all was! Was awesome to see all the SAU team out there willing to lend a hand for a good cause and nice to see so much support.

I took around 40 or so pics so will pop them in tommorrow to be developed, stupid film SLR's :(

is that all you guys think about... vortexes and getting sunburnt? lol

these are the only pics I have of the day unfortunately... wish I knew you guys were hangin around I'd have stuck around till dusk to grab some better pics of the cars.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
