lol dont be so hard on yourself...

shit happens and its happened to all of us. At least the motor is in top condish.

Andrew ill do another...:happy:

LOL just got a letter in the mail informing me I 'failed to vote' in some local election circa early September. They have a space on the back that lets me chuck in an excuse as to why I didn't rock up (to try and avoid the MASSIVE penalty of $20 :P)

Might put something in there like 'I was sleeping in and cbf' or 'I do not care for your political mumbo jumbo' or something stupid. They'll reject it and I'll have to pay the $20 but who cares, it'll waste a bit of their time :D

either that or I'll pay with a drawing of a spider :rofl:

hahahahah damn I should've looked in here before I wrote my smart arse letter, could've printed that out and done a snail mail version of the recent email joke :P

had an adventure in the rolla today :P

had another crack at fixing the fuel tank... seems to hold up, so i took her out for a cruise.

could still smell petrol, so was gonna pull off brighton road n suss it out, then the old girl stalled. we pushed her into a carpark and had a look......... the carby was leaking fuel from this shoddy rubber seal that was in the re-build kit straight onto the turbos exhaust housing :S

so glad it stalled or me and my mate would have had a ride in a fireball.

upgrade time!!! gonna get a webber in there, or maybe a carby from a camira :D:rofl:

got it towed to my mums place, and i saw thomasino drive past in his 180, i waved but got a blank stare lol

hey as some of you may know ive only got 1 head light at the moment due to some sort of wiring issue in my car.

anyone here got some skills and willing to help me out n take a look? i can cough up some $ or do a krusty burger exchange.

ive already checked its not the globe :P and ive changed the switch inside the dash which is known to be troublesome in 32s, so somewhere along the wiring line a rat has had a snak or something.

Just finished making up the actuator extension screw on bit that attaches to the flapper.

Bit of a bastard welding it then i got slag inside the thread few problems as per normal when working on cars. Now to take it for a spin. :)

Driving n/a with the flapper disconnected starts to get to you after a while. :)

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
