SAU shirts?

Maybe employ an english teacher to double-triple check the spelling this time

Thanks for taking the time to design a shirt FriniK, but we're after a more generic and "simpler" design.

After consultation with quite a few people, it has been decided that a fair percentage of non-GTR owners would NOT buy an SAU t-shirt if it had anything "GTR-based" on it. That includes all silhouettes of GTRs, RB26s, or any other nomenclature associated with GTRs (e.g. Godzilla).

Personally, I don't understand it... As I don't think that you need to OWN a GTR to wear a shirt that says GTR on it... As long as you're a fan of the GTR, that should be more than enough reason to wear it.

But anyway, it has been decided to keep the t-shirts generic and simple.

Good, I agree it shouldn't be GTR based images on the shirts because if it was just a club for GTR's I wouldn't join it

No-one asked you anyway, slow-ass GTS-t boy

FriniK that shirt design is awesome, well done man.

Since i wasn't consulted i'll voice my views on whether it matters if it has GTR references on it or not... I don't own a GTR but that wouldnt put me off the idea of a silhouette of a GTR on the shirt. I think the GTR looks much better so it'd be great for the shirt picture.

Take the current design out forward by FriniK for example. The only thing i thought may be controversial would be the actual model of the car and the RB26DET/twin turbo text.

Sure, it looks sweet, but maybe just keep the design as is but remove that line which leads to the hood of the car and have RB25DET written on the side too.

The other key issue is, what model skyline do you put as the picture? Just 1, all of them or none? I think there would probably have to be all if you wanted to keep EVERYONE happy, so that being said, maybe just the graphics without that car would be suffice.

Personally i think that if you are the sorta person who is keen enough to get one of these shirts/jackets; then you basically have the skyline heritage & loyalty in your blood & wouldn't mind too much on what model car/design was chosen in the end.

Just my 2 cents worth.

i dont think it should be anything variant specific.... i.e. GTR's GTS-t's etc. NOR model specific i.e. R31, 32, 33, 34..

I reckon a more generic approach would be more popular..

maybe something which all skylines have... a distinct feature.. like the round tail lights..

or something even as simple as the "S" logo..

and then references to the website to create awareness etc.

Just my 2c.

Personally, I don't understand it... As I don't think that you need to OWN a GTR to wear a shirt that says GTR on it... As long as you're a fan of the GTR, that should be more than enough reason to wear it.  

Thats a very valid point, but i'm more like these people in that i'd rather wear something which applies more to my situation.

[Phil Megroin]

Maybe we could start making pants with red round tail lights over the ass portion..

how mad would that be.

[GTR_Legend]

I agree with you phil, after all, we are a SKYLINE club, not a GTR or GTST club

BTW, The pants sound pretty fashionable. :confused:

[BU5TER]

feel me groin??

[Kel]

The idea we're working towards will be simple and promote the club.

As they say, watch this space.....

[Marsss]

You should still keep the word OFFICAL on it... kinda adds character

Heheheheheh!!! happy to be here!

Hey, I was checking out the Classic Skyline thread and thought.... What if the T-shirts or any of the other apparel items included the word Skyline in the different ways the Datsun/Nissan have used it over the years?.. no model mention, just..... SKYLINE.... after all, my fellow Australians, THIS is wot unites us....

[Tigger]

Im keen to get a shirt

I also agree with the GTR thing mentioned earlier... As much as i like GTRs, I dont like the idea of being seen as a 'GTR wanna-be' while driving around in my gts-t.

[Marsss]
