smart things we should see on the road on this very special day: australian flags hanging out of windows or on airiels!

happy aust day

peace

Well speaking of that... I think there is still overboard.

I saw one that no word of a lie would have been 6m x 4m at least, was on a ute obviously. Rather funny.

All the above mentioned idiots and their cars really don't help the Red Neck cause!

yea.. Happy Australia day everybody..

take it easy.

I got invited over to the skid pan yesterday to see some of the local

sil's, 180's & 200's go at it..

I was totally shocked at one 200sx owner who blew up his SR20! ..and i do mean blew up. rod out of block kind of blown up!!

it started to make a big end noise.. rather loudly. The SR was not happy, so the smarty thought it needed a rev tune, that made the SR even more unhappy. he went back onto the pan and gave it what for. As he left the pan it gave up the courage to live and grenaded itself out of this world.

Damn, what is wrong with some people? R wrecking yards giving away SR's? I just cant understand y anybody would want to do that to their car? Instead of just having to dismantle the bottom end, now it looks like he needs a whole new engine.. Perhaps we should all pitch in and buy the lad a 4cyl VOLVO!

Saw something like that last night on the way to Willowbank, a ute with a flag tied from the top of the roof to the back of the tray, was freakin huge !

The young fella a couple of doors down has got an early 80's swift/barina with hole in bonnett and obligatory air filter poking out, also coming from the same house a bog stock vt ss sporting dash/console/pillar and bonnet gauge sets....wtf!! and almost weekly canarys.

Always makes me lol when I walk past.

I had one of those knight rider supras pull up next to me and try to race me. As he took off, I noticed that it was NA, with a massive exhaust, and custom SUPR4 plates. I think they were worth more than the car.

Did not even try to race him, just laughed at him at the next set of lights, as he sat there, once again reving the engine.

How the..? nice crunch!

dja notice the veiw in the mirror? who took the foto?

I saw a civic today with Vic plates that had twin exhausts.. but it gets worse.

he was shopping or something, cut INTO the bonnet were 3 gauges!

Kinda like a reversed upside-down chinese triangluar air scoop.

It looked stupid, i bet he couldn't read them either.

Is there cheap crack for sale somewhere or what?

How is it possable that so many idiots can do so much dumb stuff.. and still manage to breath?

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
