we should have regular mod days - i know guys in other states have them. just spend a saturday or sunday doing mods to each others cars over a few beers / lunch

Again thanks for Andrew who went out of his way to come over and lend us his power tools. Much appreciated.

Darren and Ash for lending us their tools and Darren for coming over in person to lend a hand.

hence why im keeping them and may do the occassional bubble thought thing hehe

your car looks just as good in that pic as it does in person. too bad i didnt take before and after pics of sam and my car. ah well, there always next time.

Well someone had to take the pics. your right sam. car is stiff - stupidly stiff. I drove on all road surfaces since saturday and omfg, adel's road is so bumpy. I went for a drive in the hills, suspension loves it but diff scares the sh!t out of me - coilovers + diff = wierd noises when going over bumps. How's the blistein/whiteline package go so far, how was drive to murray?

yeah those coilovers a definately solid, they are at home in the hills, barely any roll at all hey. my new suspension feels really good, but i need a wheel allignment and adjustable stabliliser bars. i couldnt help but take the gorge rd home :laugh:

no worries for the lend of the power tools guys - I wish I didn't already have plans, I would have stayed to help you. Missed Darren too - what a bummer .... I must have left too early. Ah well next time!

Yes we should definitely have some mod days - got heaps of room in my garage and a nice bbq out the back and relax area. I am going to get some coilovers or the SK Bilstein group buy stuff like Sam and Ash in the not-too-distant future .... might have to have you guys over for a barbie and suspension changeover :P

sorry i didnt drop by today. went to a mates and when i left it was bout 6:30, so though next time. that and the fact that his area - stoneyfell, had no reception didnt help to notify you.

but yeah, a occasional mod day would be sweet. i had this chat with vange a while back, he's keen on the idea - actually i think it was his idea.

this is where i got mine from Duc

    • 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.
