Well the tranny just gave up today on the Falcon work car so dropped it off to the good guys at All States Transmissions in Edwardstown. Thought it may have needed a service and a new solenoid but found a handfull of shavings from the clutches in the pan. Without a tranny cooler and towing a caravan, I think she cooked..........$2K for a c/o tranny. :w00t:

I suppose someone out there is going to tell me that I could've saved $500 elsewhere......then you'll see a grown man cry!

id get adjustable shocks, if u get super low king springs, it will be too low, and if u get normal kings, you will either sometimes want higher or lower. if you have long term plans of track racing or track work, invest in some ISC coils, i have ISC N1's and i love them

Kinda noobish question here, but whats the difference between springs and adjustable shocks and coilovers?

springs and shocks are seperate items: the spring is fitted to the sock absorber, whereas coils are the single item. basic answer, an expert can go into details.

got the week off so started by taking of my timing belt cover and coil pack cover... painting it in gold engine enamel..... its getting minor orange peel effect :w00t: but who cares it will look better than the chipped black

    • 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
