rod, i now like the idea. gimme sponsors and lots of em.

i would like it to be a sister club of SDU, but not actually a branch of SDU so we can have as strong, or as weak (or severed) ties as we like. Theres a good reason for that which i wont voice.

Skylines Australia would be the go i reckon

youse know im always up for club action, and im happy to be an official in the club and do whatever.

gimme free skidpan rod, gimme now! :(

hmm. I hate to be the one who says this, but i've noticed that everyone who has posted has refered to the club as Skylines Australia but the votes went to Skylines DownUnder. I'd just like to re-emphasise that it's not about what name the club falls under, but rather being together and enjoying everyones company and having the club move forward..... :(

You guys/gals are doing a great job or forming everything together... now is there anything i can do..... :wink:

Well It's a skyline club, so i think having a skyline should be a pre-requisite for membership. We could have 'affiliates' - people we allow in the club because we like them and they are skyline enthusiasts and they are good for the club. (emphasis on GOOD FOR THE CLUB) otherwise its just anyone who likes skylines, which i think we should steer clear of. Ryan sure hasnt been good for SDU.

Slip,

I don't agree. Just have one kind of membership for everyone. Have an associate class for the competitions when they start up.

Ryan sure hasnt been good for SDU.[/quote:d8ce83933e]

wrt the above comment, suggest you add an avatar/comment as to whether you are kidding. :(

er in my post i was saying have people as proper members if they are good for the club and dont have a 'line. i dont know, they may have some knowledge of skylines, have a 240z with an RB20 or something. Why would we want (emphasis on want) ryan in a proper skyline club. He hasnt got a car, and i dont see any big contributions from him. I say the same about BOOSTA who is a friend and always comes out with us. Hell yeah he would come on cruises and stuff and be around, but I wouldnt exactly say he was a 'member' till he signed up with a car. This is if we are going to do the proper club thing.

as far as i'm concerned, he does have the two contributing factors a person needs to become a member.

1.money

2.enthusiasm for the skyline

period.

the fact that he doesn't have the car would mean he is only an associate member, but still a member at that. if he does break the rules and act up while at puplic places when representing the club and other such scenarios, then he's out along with anyone else that does the same. simple

you forget that we are here primarily to enjoy ourselves and promote the skyline. :(

over

Ryan is always happy to help out. If you had not noticed he also mods the Car Audio forum.

So he pissed off a few people on SDU...big deal!!!

So what if he doesn't have a Skyline. If I sell mine will I get booted from the club?

Have the club open to ALL who are interested in Skylines. If we are going to have a proper club lets start thinking in a mature and sensible manner and not let personal bias get in the way, otherwise the club is doomed from the start. :(

I agree, as along as you show support for the club and car and don't bring either into disrepute then fine...come on in.

It would probably be limiting the size of the club by resticting it, as soon as people find out about the quality and enjoyment of owning a Skyline weather is be the first GTR in 1969 by Prince or the latest skyline concept from renault...it only increase the actually cars in teh club that are skylines.

I think we can drawn the line on WRX owners maybe ??? hehehe

Would it be jumping the gun to expect to see a club Super Sprint Championship (which of course should only be open to Skys) next year ???

Maybe 3 or 4 rounds ? four classes ?

umm slightly. we have to get everything of the ground first. maybe a trackday or two early next year. have to get a feel for things and build up a healthy bank account before we can venture into sprints and other motor sport events.

i'm gonna be pushing for a national meet by early 2005.

*a dream develops*

Here you go guys, have some opinions.

I currently do not own a Skyline, it's still on my "Next to buy" list.

I show great enthusiasm for the Skyline, as my friends how I drool everytime I see one on the road. The car is god. :(

I would be more and grateful if you all would allow me to become a member of "Skylines Australia" or whatever the name should be in the future.

Would coming to cruises, events, maybe even a few track days with my current car be acceptable ?

I think there should not be any bias placed on distinguishing members just coz they don't have a Skyline (yet!) ANY skyline enthusiast should be able to join.

What do you all think??

Don't worry dude. you will be able to join. anyone that wants to can join for that matter as long as they are a skyline enthusiast.

i'm sorry but by the looks of things if you don't have a skyline you will only be an associate member. this is not by any means meant to discriminate. you get all the rights except for a select few such as discounts at a sponsors business (you don't need them anyway as they will be skyline related) and track days/meets.

cruises, you are more than welcome to rock up in anything you want.

hey, nothing is set in concrete yet so things will change. if you don't like how we are doing something, speak up now. at the end of the day, it will be your club as much as anyones.

Aww looks like im being partially excluded :(

The Skyline is basically the king of its genre. The Supra is basically toyotas answer and then there is the rx-7.

Ok all but the rx-7 are basically the same just different badges.

Does this also include s-13s which in some aspects are better than the lines anyhow?.

Ok Ok im having a whinge but i think it is a bit dissapointing that i wont be a full member just cause i have a toyota badge.

Im not saying every man and his dog should qualify but arent we all in the same boat in the end?

Then again the club is called SKYLINES****

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
