not much watching tv online.. So many adds these days

Hey mate

New clutch is in, so happppy.... Cars so much faster now...

Its all good now neil, dont worry, im not holding it against you. The rebuild price and the price to put in the new 6 button were comperable, and I highly doubt I will ever chuck enough power at the 6 button to break it. I also think the clutch has been slipping since I got the car, and prehaps before then. The original clutch was very, very worn as was the flywheel. Driving the car home tonight was an intresting experciance, with the car happily chirping 2nd and 3rd before I learnt how to drive the button clutch properly (And you could almost hear the sigh of relief from my gearbox when I did) - the car feels much, much faster now too. Giving it stick from 1st to 2nd taking off from the lights in the 80 zone on the way home, it happily spun the back wheels up on the gear change and for half a second the car wanted to step out before attessa kicked in and corrected. Something I must be careful of in the future, thank god I was the only car on the road. All in all, dans effort on this was 110% - He had the car finished well ahead of when he first said he would, the job seems to be very through with dan replacing the spigot bush and the throwout bearing in the car, and of course a machined flywheel, along with a few other odds and ends. The whole car drives and feels quite smooth, and once you get used to the feeling of the new clutch its actually quite pleasureable to drive. Two thumbs up for Elite Racing Developments

Hes right, I removed the date from the post... lol whoops...

Im going to have to sit this one out now, have work on on that day.

The next mountain run is coming up at the end of next week, theres a fair few cars going (I think we have about 20 odd signed up) and theres plenty of people to meet there. Come along for some fun!

Details Update: Meeting Place: This time round we will only be doing one meetup point, this is to allow me to get pizza for everyone. I cannot go to the southside meetup and get pizza at the same time, as it would be cold for the northside meetup Meetup Place and Time: 7pm, Bunnings Warehouse, Stafford Road, Stafford. Near the car lovers. I will be waiting there with pizza for thoes who place there orders now. I am willing to go on trust and have people pay me once they get there, but, please do not abuse this. If you are not going to be there, *please let me know in advance*, espically of you have ordered a pizza. If you want a pizza, post up. Orders will close midday friday. I will be getting the pizza from Pizza Hut, unless anyone has any objections.

list updated. I will post more details when I get to work.

Meh I can only go on what im told by the seller of the car. Having never driven a car with a twinplate before, how was I to know? Its good to see that the situation has caused you to have a few laughs however. Oh... Sellers comments from earlier in the thread:

hey slide where are you located anyway?

Do you mind if I ask why your swaping a NA to Turbo ECU?

im bored... Dont wana work tomorrow sighs

Lol. In for page 1

I get the feeling I have gone to the right man Looking forward to getting the car back. My Bad

I dont see any cause for closure, mercury hasnt really gotten that much abuse here? Every workshop will have people who dont like them, its the price of doing business.

According to dan there quite streetable, so we shall see...

sif! you need dan powah for your clutch. Anyway, pizza on the cruise night, whos keen?

My cars getting a new clutch put in it. Mike, if you wana scout with me, im happy to ride shotty in yours...

I may be able to make an offer if this is still here when I get my paycheque on the 15th of next month. Or, if your willing to take a deposit and wait, I can make an offer now.

The cops wont deal with it at all. They dont care, its one less preformance car they have to worry about. Id be up for stealing someones stolen car back. Be real easy if we could figure out where it was, as we still have the keys...
