Beyond Blue R33

3 weeks of 50hrs now nothing. Done a heap of quoting so hopefully we'll pick up the jobs?

Apart from the burn I've been sick aswell. No days off but. Steering the ship to the bottom of the ocean!

Cummins nta855. Fuel pressure timing what a beast!

How did the painting finish up today?

mega RB ideas and turbo's filling the grey matter? Seen a insane Supra at coffee and cars. 5" turbo lagged ali lobsterback and 5" s/s dump pipe. It was mega tidy was going to get some pics but the guy was leaving.

Yep waitawhile day.

At it again I see! I did our front lounge and the office/kids rooms with floorboards. Cut the edges in with a little rolling edges thing was way easier than tape and brush. I rolled the walls with a long extension on the roller and a halogen light pointing on the wall with 2 pedestal fans running in the room. Was way easier to see from standing back with the long extension pole and light in the room, was colder weather like now so fans and airflow helped the paint dry alot. Stained the timber skirtings in Japan black and cut the shape for a butt up not mitres with a coping saw. Re-done the ceiling first when the floor was concrete with drop sheets. Used the ceiling paint that goes on pink and dries white. Way easier too see. Not a doubt in my mind you've done a trick job!! Animal:-)

Ha ha I'm at work. Will take it easy the next few days. Eating the curry of burning irony in sandwiches for smoko . Amazingly looks pretty good today. Did 1 hour of cold water on off till the heat disappeared. Wrapped in sterile cloth and glad wrap. Nurse said just put antiseptic on for 5 minutes then pat clean keep re laying dressing.

Are you going to bring it down to the megameet?

Frankensteins monster, bolt of lightning to fire up that nasty s.o.b.!

This is my hand, splashed the piping hot oil onto it. Chicken Korma with blistering skin! Yum!

Jack wanted to make a Korma chicken curry today? I'll show you how mate marinate the chicken. Set it aside. Get the oil hot close to bubbling then ad the spices stir and only just spoon in a few pieces! All the chicken dropped out the bowl into the piping hot oil an whalla!

Haha? You think Trev doesn't know what a cat is lol, lol, funny as, I'll let Trev respond!

3" to 5" body ceramic 100 cell.

Out of interest where would you put the auto flex? Assuming you're doing it yourself not looking at pics or posts? Before or after the cat? Would be keen to see all the pics of your build? Must be a insane machine? A veritable titan?

Yeah we've got all that stuff at work. I had the car off the road for a few months when I bought it and just wanted to drive it so? With out tig purge welding. turbo flanges and v-bands was just a quick fix for a whole new s/s system. It's no gt-r or show car. Sounds good hammers hard. If you want to see a awesome piece of exhaust work check out Steve's gt lm upkeep on the forum. It's exhaust jewellery!

3" in/out 5" body 100cell. Had a oval shaped catco when I got it.

Buddy oh whoops, Pal, Pal this is my Pal! No doubt our Pal would love to show the beast to strippers!

Any advise?

If it leaks again I'll sus it out at work and true it up or put a 3"x8" auto flex on it. Shouldn't really need it because the front mount that picks up the dump pipe and cat swings with the engine torquing. But whatever it takes to not be doing exhausts on the w/end at work is the best fix for me. It was up on the hoist at my mates work so I just pulled it jigged it up and copied it. The original system had blown the glass out the poxy short front absorptive muffler and the rear muffler had snapped the perforated tube inside the muffler. Frrrrrrtt pop bang. Was shit rusty aluminised steel.100cell cat and 2xmagnaflows now full s/s Sounds sweet. Might just need a tweak to remove the tension. I unbolted the front hanger and gradually put even tension on all the bolts this time and removed the butter bolts washers spring washers etc and replaced with high tensile 10mm flanged bolts and grip nuts. Trev said check for a exhaust leak due to my lifter rattle sound? so I did and found a couple of lines in the driveway which lined up with the cat flanges. I ran it up yesterday with a large piece of paper under the leaky flanges and no probs so far? How does your exhaust hang from the car on the mounting points any pics?

Yeah i know what you mean. I jigged up the old exhaust and put the rear/centre hangers in the same place with doubling plates, it fitted up mint but I extended the cat to the original length and trued both flanges up square with the spirit level. I'd say the tension issue is from the original rear cat flange not being square and that's where in getting the tension issue from.

Would be a blurry Blue blob after. 7 hours of booze and strippers! Mate, maaate, maaaaatey. It a beast alright!

Some pics from custom cars and coffee.

Yep I'll be there unless anything crops up.
