Hey

I was enjoying the cruise - up until ...well you all know :D. Well I have had my nose rubbed into what I did to my car several times since I got home... so I'm hiding out for a while :)

The damage is the bent bonnet, nose cone and the bar behind the bumper is bent. I guess things happen for a reason though.

I am really sorry to Edwin... and Hicks. Thanks to psiker for driving my car for me. And Thanks to everyone who has offered to help get me back on the road.

So what how long did you guys stay at the dam for?

Does anyone have any photo's while you guys were at the Dam???? As you know ( or could probably smell :) ) we had to give up at the start of the cruise due to a dead clutch.... We just managed to limp home ( car cant rev above 2000 now ) so I am glad we pulled out and didn't get stuck half way along the cruise.

Am dissapointed to have missed this one though, would have been good to get to know some of you more :D

Ummm.. I know "Dirty Joe" took pictures of Adam, macka and Paul beaching themselves.. urr. i mean getting outta the water... *shudder*

Almost as scary as Paul's "truckie tan" hahahahha

Tinkerbell,

It worries me that you lok so hard at my body, I'll go to the solarium next time for you:p

Bully, I presume most of those stickers went on the 4cylinder pocket rocket's before we got there, not sure if R.I.C.E. membership is exclusive to imports:p

Macka should have alot of photo's so can he organise them to be posted, or get Kym to look after them.

See'ya:burnout:

When the three stooges were having a bath and joe took their shirts I should've bought some pegs and pegged the shirts to the portable washing line on the back of GTS-T VSPECS car hehehe

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
