I've been told by heaps of people that these things go off. Who's going? Maybe we should all catch up? Girls are welcome too. You'll be in heaven with so many pornstars around you. :) Costs $30 if you haven't raised $100 for Movember. No idea what you get for your money though. Maybe only entry. Can't imagine it's a drink all you can but rides are probably free, I hope... Mo rides cost extra. At the very least come and cheer me and Slim on when we hit the cat walk!!!!! Yeah baby!

I think I know someone who knows him. I'll try to get his number tomorrow at work if I remember.

How hard can it be Duncan? :)

Without wanting to take away from your well thought out post (which I enjoyed btw), I just wanted to suggest that while halving the temperature of the exhaust gases by not insulating (to use your example) might flow double the gas through the given exhaust manifold, or to try to be more precise, double the molecules, I don't see how this will impart more energy to your turbine as it passes through it. Double the gas taking up the same amount of physical space but at 30% less velocity? Surely this is not helpful. .. Unless the greater density of gas passing through the turbine somehow has more torque and therefore gets the turbine up to speed faster than the higher velocity, lower density gases, in which case the only benefit of this method is faster spooling, although there is now less restriction on the exhaust side so perhaps you would have a cleaner charge in the cylinders, particularly with big overlap cams. But I don't think it does. Shit, count the commas!! I know a racer who swears by the stock extrude honed and coated exahust manifold for RB26 because it (allegedly) spools the biggish turbos faster, even if it might be a restriction compared to other possibilities at higher revs. They have proven that swapping some bottom end for top end power does not always get you a faster ET.

Check my sig. It's not a speed event, it's about observation and having fun. Oz - What's more important!

Yup, us guys with newer cars don't have these problems, we just blow the whole engine.

Do it.

Thanks Shell.

I wore my Nitto's out and don't have much money atm.

It was a vauge suggestion that we use a carpark belonging to Strathfield car radios but I never suggested asking them for advice.

Just throwing up an idea. What if we had a stereo install day maybe in a Strathfield car park where you bring, or buy on the day, your uninstalled stereo gear and the people in the club with experience can help you install it? We wouldn't be making any sub boxes for you but I think it would be fair to say that the main purpose of this is for the experienced people to help with wiring for those who know nothing or very little about car electrics and to show how things like the dash come apart and go back together for those who haven't delved that deep into their cars as yet. We can also tune the system once it's up and running as well as explain along the way what things are and how they work.

Yeah but the factory guage is shite and tells you pretty much nothing. I would want to know a more acurate reading so I will be using the top hose.

Yeah Always put new copper washers on. They squash down when tightening and are single use only.

Happy birthday you old fart. I had plans already made also but otherwise I would have been there... wherever there was. Go girls!

When is that?

Ok so it's PJ's at Parra next thursday right?

Mate it's just around the corner. I found Bankstown recently.

I'm just about to put a JustJap radiator in mine. The current one I have is a copper twin core with stock top and bottom tanks which works quite well but I want to do 20 laps without getting too warm rather than then 10 I currently get.

I've been wearing the same undies now for 6 weeks.

So is this dinner back on? I don't understand. Was it ever off? I'll be there, how's that for a start? I went to a nice Greek restaurant in Petersham the other day which would work for us if people are interested but I think there are already suggestions out there.

My secret fairy.

I think they like you Steve. You obviously make them happy.

Yeah on the track I never go over 130 but generally stay under 120. It seems that a number of fluids in your car - radiator, auto trans, engine oil - like to run at about 80-90.

Just goes to show how much fat was in the Jun ones before.

Strange question... Starting from the bottom, rubber o-ring, metal section, plastic body starts, then there's a lip on the body before the serial number starts. Right there. From memory. It's been a while. I don't know what use this is. Why do you want to know?
