Hi all

In Sydney this week. It's sunny. Will go through all PMs and orders when I return on Thurs. Using dialup at the moment - a world of suck.

Oh yeah...

Hume run in a GTR is mostly great. Melb to Aulbury is fantastic. Aulbury to Gundagai sucks. Gundagai to Sydney is wonderful. Some bumps are not designed for hard suspension, and Sydney speedhumps are too high. My nice new front lip is looking a bit battered ;)

Experienced the HICAS sleep-mode. Sat happliy on 120 (speedo) and didn't get pinged once. Exhaust drone is fine. Premium fuel is readily available - but only getting 400-450 to a tank.

Have a fun week ;)

Albury - Gundagai is that beyatch of a road that narrows down to 1 lane each way... god I hate that bit.

I reckon Melb - Albury is the bestest road in melb. Even more fun when you're being chased by a copper in a GTO ;)

Sounds good :(

I am cruising up through there next week, also going on to coffs harbour and then brisbane, after sydney. Unfortunately I am not going in my car. Taking 2 work cars ~ free fuelage :P

Will be good to checkout these roads in a 'normal-comfy- car first perhaps. Then do the trip again with my car ;)

Drove my car to Canberra, for the summernats (entrant). Early january, with no aircon (wolf 3d bug, know fixed :P), windows open, and no stereo as it was useless due to wind and exhaust noises.

The drive was still pleasant, and not too harsh.

Karina - got it - thanks

slywpn - only just got back from Sydney. Have replied now :)

Everyone who hasn't paid... I need to get payment from you BEFORE I pick up the shirts. This is simply for cashflow reasons. I can meet people on Monday and/or Tuesday night (I need to go out to BMT on Monday - so can meet me there) or we can arrange somewhere for Tuesday. Ilive/work pretty close to the city.

If you are only able to pay when you receive the goods - is fine. You can come with me to pick up the shirts. I just don't want to be left quite out of pocket like last time.

EFT is still the best way to pay. Embrace technology :P

I have updated the payment chart too:

    • 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
