Port Lincoln this Thursday.

Saturday night was the worst.

Started drinking at like 7pm.

Left town at roughly 6:15am... well, whenever the sun was coming up, as I was still out the front of Reds :D

But what a night. My mate got kicked out of 6 clubs ;) the only place that'd let him in on Hindley street was Strats.

So how was everyone's Easter? :D

On Wednesday my partner and I headed off to Port Lincoln, Stayed in Cowell overnight and had an awesome snitty and got pissed with locals and some friends from Whyalla who were there.

Got to Lincoln, ate lots of food, drank lots of beer and wine, Jetski, Tubes, Sharkwater and goodtimes till I got home Sunday.

On the Friday our friend got a flat tyre so we lent him ours, went out to the beach, can you believe WE then got a flat tire from a screw! So typical. All good tho, mate's dad owns the wreakers and hooked us up with one.

I hate to admit I very much enjoy driving the 6 speed V8, especially with the raor from the twin exhaust.

Nothing like a new 6.2ltr ute running around when GMH suppliers run out mufflers!

there might be when the 6.4ltr comes out next year and the 6.6ltr the year after. just make it 10ltr and be done with it already :P

No Dale its easy enough though to make gtr manifolds fit though would need to look in the maintainence thread

Cheers,

I'll have a look. At this stage the CA will be pensioned off unless i can't get what i'm after for it (which knowing cheap ass CA owners i won't) and i'll be going RB25 with a set of R34 GTR turb's and GTR intake, looking for around 280-300.

no 26/30 dale?

That's the next 180. Next year once a start working as an engineer i will start that project but it will be a ground up build for a bare shell. Once i start building the engine then this 180 will be sold with whatever engine it is running at the time. But nothing will be spared on that engine, including a dry sump setup, CNC ported head, full crank girdle (crank case to main cap to crank case) etc, etc.

With the CA i'm at the point where i need to rebuild it if i want to make any more power, i can do it for around 3k and it will make 260rwkw; or i can sell it fit a 25 and put the 3K into that and make near 300kw. But like i said if i don't get the right money for the CA i'll just rebuld that and be happy with 260.

My gf's business partner has just got a Calais V with the new cylinder de-activation and this thing sounds like V6 Alloytec, bit disappointing.

    • How much have you lowered?  I had 350Z springs in the rear and was able to pull the camber into factory spec with the factory arms on the rear, obviously the front ran negative camber as it isn't adjustable, but rotating the wheels regularly evened out the wear.
    • Either the installer needs to come back, you need an auto electrician, or you need to learn automotive electricals yourself.   First step Id look at is where that big thing came out of, is there still things unplugged at that location? Maybe they just forgot to put a relay in or something?
    • Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.
    • I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want. 
    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.
