Update on the oil..

I've found the Castrol 10w60 to be a little too thick.

WOT over 3500rpm now see's 8kg/cm2 on the stock guage.

Idle is 3, cruise ~2000rpm is 5. Cold start max's out the guage.

Prior to the castrol i ran motul 8100 5w40.

Idle - Needle over 2, cruise ~2000rpm - 4, WOT over 4000rpm 7 (only just).

It appears to make oil pressure much much more quickly now.. 3500rpm vs 4000rpm to see its peak oil pressure.

I think this is too high personally.

4Door_sleeper, whats yours run at?

[Cillham]

lol, yes sir- many ;D

I've got an interesing test document on oils hanging around, see if i can find it

[4door_Sleeper]

4Door_sleeper, whats yours run at?

Sorry I dont remember, its been too long since the cars been out for a run (other that the occasional once around the block to keep things lubricated)

[Nozila]

lately ive watched quite a number of movies. Movies that ive seen which i can remember of the top of my head include..........

initial d the movie - pretty average

sin city - awesome just awesome. worth the money/watching

the island - quite good

land of the living dead - quite dissapointing actually, although i wasnt expecting much

house of wax - very good

what about others, what have you guys/girls seen lately and what did u think of it?

[Nozila]

i was surfing the net for tips/methods on how to spray paint your car at home (as you do) and stumbled across this guy's 1st attempt. simple stunning. what do you think sam??

here are some pics of it.

[Nightcrawler]

damn that is a v.nice paint job!

Hey Sam, would you be able to paint my wheel centres in your shed? They are stripping off the chrom lip and the centres, and they should be ready to mask and paint when I get them back. Do you think it would be an easy job? Also, are heatproof paints easy to come by? Otherwise I might just get the entire wheel mirror polished. Pic attached. Also 2 pics attached of what mine would look like polished.

[Nozila]

sam is on holidays andrew, he wont be painting for a while. jk

entire wheel mirror polished as in no coloured spokes?

[Nightcrawler]

yeah well that is one thought - get the whole thing polished like the 2nd and 3rd pics. But depending on price might get the centres done a colour.

[Nozila]

im sure you can do it yourself andrew. go on. there was someone on this forum who did it themselves with a spray can - i bet that put you off straight away didnt it, to his spokes much like what you do to your calipers. But if you want the silky factory coloured look, use a spray gun which i guess sam would be the one to do it. im sure he's still in Adelaide atm.

[Nightcrawler]

I actually do have a compressor and spray gun etc .... but have never used them. Maybe I will give it a go myself. I wonder how hard it would be to do shadow chrome - that is what I would really like for the spokes.

[Nozila]

andrew, have you read my thread regarding air compressor?? =D
