Friday's no good for me as I've got a work BBQ, so it's tonight, or the weekend. I'll be helping the missus move house, but I'll be in the area, as she's moving not too far from me.

Oh and I can lend you a breaker bar and speed brace along with the right socket for wheel nuts too. Should make the job quicker if you can both do tyre changes at the same time. With enough practice we might even shape you in to the SAU-SA pit crew. :)

Sam, tried to call your mobile but to no aval. Anywho, got the extra set of car stand - thanks go to Ash and Darren, cheers boys.

No worries fella, anytime! pitty i wasn't home when you came, heard you had a few issues finding the joint...... :)

Will be good to see your line at a much better ride height and handle ALOT better! Next would have to be ECU after the diff your getting?

yeah, it was dark. i was tired and it took a while. ECU only if its too good to pass upon, same goes for TURBS or whatevers. Thanks to Ash, it was confimed that my o2 sensor has gone to o2 sensor heaven. great

:)

btw, you guys have cat (animal that is) or neighbours have one, when i went out the car not long ago i saw paw prints and some scratches on my headlights - no happy jan. gonna have to buff it out now, doh!

Nah no stupid cats with us, and i havn't noticed any around, But i do keep the line under a car cover under the carport so it wouldn't scratch mine!

would like identical to yours now wont it.

Yes yes it will look identical to mine......... except for that front bar of yours, I should have kept mine.........NOT!

height adjustable mate, u can choose how low u want it. they are currently set at 355mm front and 345mm back (as per Sydneykids setting), i used to have it set 330mm front and back, but had to raise it for the bodykit. btw the spring rates on these are pretty solid, sort of like your old sileighty, so hope u dont mind the solid ride :P

ROFLMAO you should have seen the look on Pete's face when the brakes locked up - actually my face was just as surprised. Its driven by a chick now, she drove it like it had a standard clutch. She was like twin plate?..ok. ROFL

So how'd you go over the weekend fellas...

...and more importantly when do i get my tools back? :)

all went well... except for a certain nut that got snapped and nearly drove me and Duc crazy :) thanks to Andrew and Darren for dropping over to help out.

was funny when Darren dropped around and Duc was tightening up wheel nuts, and Darrens like.. "is that my wheel brace?" he must have picked it up from you and Darren didnt know :) ah, u had to be there i guess.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
