Thankyou so much guys for all your positive thoughts :)

I feel alot better having mates give advice and company, thankyou all.

I wanted to arrange a fundraiser because a close friend of mine also has cancer. The fundraiser could be a bbq for anyone, and they could check out some cars at the same time. At the end of it all we could donate all the money to the anti cancer council.

It would let us become a bit more known and for good reasons.

sorry to hear buddy

my mum has had cancer twice and its not nice to see her going throught treatment that makes her feel bad. but there is always light at the end of the tunnel - just stay positive. medicine and prayers are more powerful than many people believe.

cancer is a word thrown around all too often and the connotations it carries often overshadow the fact that lots of people do recover fully and have fantastic lives.

my thoughts are with your family...

dude we are with you through this....it sucks i no, my father passed away from this 24th april, things happen for a reason, you will all get through this :-)

on the fundraiser note, i have been in contact with a lady from the anti-cancer council for a little while now with our volunteering scheme at work, i mentioned what she thought would be a good idea that a car club could do that would attract some people to raise some money for them...she will be getting back to me soon i hope.......a bbq or something sounds good, or possibly how would some people feel(bmt or others) about say a dyno day or something car related that can be done and a portion of the price for everyone is donated ie..(not correct figures i no)normal dyno $80 club dyno day $50..we pay 70 instead and donate the extra 20??? and anything else from a raffle or something??

just a sugg

Im sorry to hear all your stories and experiences with cancer, I really do understand how you guys feel.

My Mum has to have a breast removed due to the cancer spreading, she heard the news yesterday although she is a strong person and everyone around her has been supportive.

Hotsky thats a great idea mate!!!! Let us know what they say about the fundraiser, the bbq sounds good although I think you idea about the dyno day is excellent!!!! And a raffle also sounds good.

Take Care Guy's

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      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.

      Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
