Way to kill thread Tosh

Yeah penrite SIN is good stuff, use the leftover you have in the clutch Yep bleed proceedure is the same as brakes, depending on car you might have 2 bleed nipples (one on the master one on the slave). Can't remember which you are meant to do first.

Morning Scarnon

Missed out on epic big brakes on eGay Will probably look up Norm Singleton to get it done. He's done a lot of the old italian cars apparently. But it won't be for a while yet... http://www.fiatabarthclassicracing.com.au/

my back hurts

Multiple safe houses have been scouted. The old exchange building near the gabba is a seriously good prospect. I like the way this kid thinks... I shall call you 'Tosh' for short. Anyone used an online escrow before?

That's what she said

Morning Mangs Ahh the truth comes out. No sexy time for you. More interested. That's what she said +1 FAIL F*CK half the things I tried to quote didn't come up. Ahh f*ck it. That's what she said x 3 +1 x 2 Scarnon Picsorban Mangs Rule 31 Do want Colin's sister ESSSS AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR Tigs RE: Zombie control room, 3 weeks on the diesel is plenty, We can resupply the diesel when it runs low.

I didn't get any ninja pics

So went for a run around this arvo: Trade tools are happy to swap my socket for a non-impact one. It will be in tomorrow, and they're not even going to charge me the extra $8 it would normally cost. Pretty awesome given that they have done nothing wrong, really can't say enough good things about these guys, they never fail to deliver when it comes to tools. Only downside is they could only get a 12 point socket, not a 6 point. Oh well. They had some epic strong looking 3/4 breaker bars too. Only short, but should be perfect for hanging a pipe off the end. I'll hang off at this stage though as I'm tempted at this point to swap the whole rear axle over... Next stop was super cheap. Surprisingly, they were more than happy to replace my breaker bar without a receipt. The problem was, they are discontinuing the super works gold tools and didn't have any in stock. No other stores showed up as having any in the computer either, so they said I could wait (maybe weeks, maybe months) for the replacement brand tools to rock up, or just get a refund. I went with refund. I could tell the manager REALLY wanted to ask how long the pipe I had on it was in order to break it, but he refrained (surprisingly) and just asked what I was trying to undo, so I told him. Now I'll need to find a suitable replacement, trade tools probably have something for that as well. Also just rang a dude about an engine, could be promising only problem is he is in Melbourne .

Cooler, three weeks!

which hair?

Wtf does hylian mean anyway?

While that is a brilliant idea, telstra are not calling me about it, they are just sending me an ebill every month. As this is an automatic process it is no doubt costing them 2 tenths of f*ck all, so I'd much rather sting them the 16 bux. Note: I don't actually care about the $16, I just don't want telstra to have it .

I was about to go APESH*T at telstra for STILL sending me bills even though I cancelled to months ago, but it turns out they are sending me bills each month saying that the owe me $16.46. I wonder how I get them to pay up, dirty money-grubbers...

Damn, no bite on the tigs call but HAHAHAHAHA NO LICENCE FOR YOU!!!! Still be good for the 31 cruise though? picsorban

Morning Geoff, Scarnon? I could have told you it would be like that before you went Been excellent, sunny and not too hot or cold. Are there any with sexy accents and tig ol' bitties, just like Colin's sister?

Morning Mags. Although I feel that I must point out: 11:02PM is not morning That's what she said That's what she said That's what she said +1 I want greatooo win sausages I LOL'd hard That's what she said

Update: Bit more luck today, transaxle is out at last (please excuse the shitty low light pictures) pretty empty under there now: And yeah, as Dan alluded to we had a bit of excitement when we realised that some idiot had put the axle stands under the de-dion triangle, then proceeded to unbolt said triangle . Oops. It was still holding it up, but very unstable. Found the proper points on the body for the axle stands and moved them, all good. Ripped the clutch of quickly for a quick look. You can see why it was seized: Yes those surfaces are meant to be smooth and shiny. Interestingly, both transaxles appear to be capable of running either a pull or push type clutch, not sure which I'll rock yet. I have everything needed for a push, but a pull is apparently better. There's more headaches ahead in getting those rear hubs off. Need a puller to pull them off, which I now have (thanks Dan), but it needs something to push against. We tried doing it with the transaxle and half shafts still in there, so that it could push against the half shafts, but it just kept pushing the transaxle over. I'll have to work something else out.

A highly unsuccessful day yesterday First up, my 5 minute trip up the road to supercrap to get a 36mm socket (as apparently this is what it actually is) turned into half a day of driving to every tool/hardware place on the north side of Brisbane trying to find someone that had one. Finally at trade tools they had a 3/4 drive impact socket and an adapter (no non-impact in stock). Success, impact socket was cheaper than normal one anyway. Got home just after lunch and BAM: Socket too big to fit in the hub, F*CK. Hopefully I can go back and exchange it for a non-impact (which I'll have to wait for). Dan came to the rescue though and somehow got a 36mm socket delivered from his work . 2 rattle guns later though, the little f*ckers would not budge. So we went all old school and got out the breaker bar and pipe. This just started to spin the drive shaft, even with the hand brake on and foot brake mashed against the floor. So we put it in gear as well, and put another breaker bar on the front of the engine. This succeeded in finally freeing the seized clutch, which started to slip . Then I took some bits of 5mm steel (look familiar? ) and drilled some holes in them so they could bolt on to the back of the hub (where the half shaft would normally bolt to) and stop it from spinning: Bolted them up and then proceeded to break my breaker bar It's a super works gold brand, apparently with life time warranty. I shall see about getting it replaced during the week, although I have no hope of finding the receipt... Sick of it by then, we had a bit of a play trying to get the 75 running. This included some 31 club engineering (read: fuel pump dodginess): As the fuel pump in it seems to be dead. But even with a definite supply of fuel she would not start, turns out the injectors aren't firing either. Suspect dead ECU or wiring fault. So failed at that, back to the f*cking hub nuts. Found another short arse breaker bar lying around, this + pipe succeeded in getting one nut off! Although, it was not looking really happy after doing so. Got it on to the second nut and then broke that breaker bar broke as well . But it seems that it did manage to crack the nut in the process, as we were then able to get the nut off with a rattle gun. At least the nuts are now off: Oh yeah, I also cut the exhaust and got it out. So today's tally: Get 36mm socket - FAIL Remove Exhaust - SUCCESS Get hub nuts off - SUCCESS (Eventually) Start 75 - FAIL Remove transaxle - FAIL Yeah, achieved a lot today . I'll need to crack those same nuts on the 75 too, so I think its time to invest in a 3/4 breaker bar. Hope to get the transaxle out today, but it is nearly lunch time and I only just got up, so maybe not

Nice Oh come on, the blonde chick is hot. How many episodes did you watch? The first few are pretty shit. I didn't mind the rest of it, but I wouldn't call it good. Mainly watched it for the afore mentioned blonde chick. I can has cookie of win?
