In super saddening news, the intermittent transmission fault that has delayed me taking delivery of my new car has returned (despite new vehicle speed sensors being replaced and a full trans service including $1,200 of CVT fluid), so I won't be gong to Melbourne to pick it up tomorrow :(:(:( Hopefully it is a solenoind issue and can be sorted soon, otherise I will have to start looking for another car.

Also spotted James being a champ and dropping off some tyres to me today - thanks mate! Your 33 is clean as!

Bit of a bugger to hear about the new toy man, hope it gets sorted.

She's a bit filthy at the momment, damn this wet weather and working on site. And thats cool, was in the area Andrew

p.s. wont let slip about the new toy either :angry:

Also guys keep an eye on where you buy your fuel from. Filled mine up tuesday with BP Extreme 98 (10% ethanol), pfc was tuned on Ultimate 98. Knock reading skyrocketed since filling up, like to 254 going up the Golden Way in 5th! So just keep an eye on knock reading if filling up at another servo to your usual.

I should have shown you photos while you were here .... didn't even think of it. Ah well, at least you know the secret now :angry: .... I am sure tons of other people have figured it out by now with all of my massive hints anyhow :(

work sucked. flamin mongrels just wouldnt go home. joisus. i foresee a busy weekend.

had some interesting guys on what was meant to be my last table, 3 vl turbo (all rb20, apparently) owners, and rotary powered rolla guy (with a fully sick polished engine n shit) talkin shit back and forth.

i got work tonight, probably a 10-12 hour shift. sigh.

Hey, does anyone here have any contacts with places that sell sleepers (would prefer treated pine)...............or alternatively, have some that they want to get rid of?

-D

Soooo... like... I'm selling a car for my dad - 1991 Toyota Tarago GLi.

And I receive an e-mail from someone asking if I still have the car for sale, replied back yes etc... and I got this back...

Thanks for the mail,i will like to know the present condition of the car and how much you are willing to sell it to me cos i am buying the car as a birthday gift for the general overseer of my church and i am out of town at the moment on missionary work as i am an evengelist and i really want the car to be a surprise for him,so i wont let him know anything about it until it gets delivered to him ,i am sure he will be very happy with it.I will pay you with my paypal account because i dont have access to my bank account as i dont have internet banking where i am here,i will need you to give me your paypal email address so i can make the payments asap for the car and pls if you dont have paypal account yet, it is very easy to set up, go to www.paypal.com.au and get it set up , after you have set it up i will only need the e-mail address you use for registration with paypal so as to put the money through.I have a pick up agent that will come and pick the car up after i have made the payment.

Thanks and God Bless.

Dean.

Anything suss?

Are you serious? Suss much!

No way that is kosher.

If he has internet access to email you, and to pay via Paypal, how does he not have access to internet banking? But either way, sif a 'missionary' would send an email like that.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
