I am particularly chasing down some details on S800's and would like to get in contact with Phil C who owned amny and was part of teh club..

I had an S800 coupe in the 1980s. Fantastic little car. Too bad a lot of the good ones ended up going back to Japan in the 90s.

Phil C(ampbell) works (or did until recently) at Shannon's Sydney office at St Leonards. He was also into 1960s Nissan/Datsun Silvias.

A colleague at work and his brother also had 3 S800 roadsters.

N-one in Australia could refurbish the S-series needle-roller crank and bearings. Fortunately one of the Honda club members was a Qantas pilot who often flew to Tokyo. Every now and then he would take a crank over for refurbishment.

One of the S800s in the club back then was a race car with a lot of factory bits including a very rare close-ratio 5-speed. The ratios were good for tracks like Amaroo and Catalina, okay for Oran Park. They would have been awful for Eastern Creek or Phillip Island

Thanks very much for the info.

Someone mentioned a bloke by the same name their but I didn't want to cold call.

I'll try him and see i he is able to help me.

Thanks again.

the whole point to saving HCCNSW is to keep the name isn't it?

true -

any update of the actual club itself?

[Setanta]

I'll have to dig through the boxes I have stashed away in the garage for '90s HCCNSW newsletters - I'll let you know if I find them. Lisa Cook(e?) and her husband Gary wrote the newsletters back then - not sure what their contact details are though.
