i looked down my driveway and what do i see...a nice stream of green liquid! yayyy new water pump! no car for the weekend...mechanic said $300 to fix it. dam these thing always happen on fridays so u dont have the car all weekend. :)

I would be very happy with it only being $300 to fix.

Its quite a big job replacing the waterpumps on these RB's.

You require coolant... The water pump, there's almost $150 in parts.

Then you have to remove the radiator, all fan belts, harmonic balancer, timing belt, remove the water pump replace it then all those bits go back on again. $300 is a very good price and who ever it is is definitely looking after you. :)

anyone know the legalities of driving on prescription narcotics? :P ie insurance, police/courts, etc

on Endone now for a while..... man it makes a huge difference to the knee pain, its amazing :P whats more it aint giving off the fuzzy-head pill-syndrome,so thats good.

oi - how about this damn avatar???!! wicked, found it on ebay

GARRETTURBO.jpg

got a drive in a SRT8 Jeep. Its only slightly slower than the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S. It does a 5.1 0-100, not bad for a 2 tone car :) It's now the fastest car that we sell, Its even faster that the lighter 300C SRT8

When you put your foot down there is no wheel spin it just launches off and get really fast quickly. And it sounds fantastic with its standard 3" twin exhausts

But then again for 85K you can get a fast GTR that doesn't need to be refuelled every few Km's

You tube have a few decent vids of the SRT8 Jeep.

Interesting... They appear to be running High 13's. :S

Unsure if they are stock, sounds stock. Apparently the ecu also limits throttle until a few kays have been pushed up on it.. Not sure how true that is.

lol...

I came across a snip from a bathurst vid I chopped 2years or so ago.

Awesome little clip this... Pure Power down the straight.

    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
