Russ,

Blew a cooler pipe off and the resulting fireball out the exhaust set the rear bar on fire for a few secs. Nothing too serious and other than asthetics the car is all ok. Infact it's pretty good now - would like to have gone head to head with you down here but I see you guys aint on the list. I take it that means you can't make it?

There's a few regulars missing this time actually.

Up yours... :huh:

This car is absorbing my blood, sweat and tears. YellaGTRs blood, sweat and tears...its been a friggin huge effort and its almost come together. Its going to be damn close...but at the moment the final hurdle is going to be rego.

So waits and sees if i have any probs...but you two just go on sitting by the pool dinking Martinis mocking our efforts to get our car ready...did i mention blood, sweat and tears (...and plenty of abusive language!)...

LOL did i mention i have done several all nighters now and still had to go to work the next day...:P Im friggin try'n

again man if you need some help with anything give us a bell we owe you a few

You dont owe me anything. Im happy to been able to help you guys out when i could at the track. That said i may be pushing sh1t uphill this weekend so will wait and see if i need to lean on you guys!

Drove the car briefly, no miss under load, drove fine. A few exhaust leaks from rushed install of turbo, but spent most of the weekend ripping the manifold off, new gasket, studs, washers. Have new rotors, pds, diff, swayabars all to go on this week.

Fingers crossed rego goes to plan this afternoon then we are on our way with a car that shoudl look pretty neat, adn be running pretty well. My only concern is the gearbox...but new Syntrans will hopefully get us through the weekend.

HI-HO Silver!!!!

    • Haha no I'll do that one tomorrow. I've been ignoring it. It's the 5.0 one I'm taking about. (There is a little X to hide the 4.7 one if you want)
    • So I'm going to have to keep ignoring the 4.7 update, or whatever version it is? Poop. I was hoping you'd put me out of my misery.
    • We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.
    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
