my brother has a hoist but no gear box stand. were changing one on a S15 soon so we will see how that goes.

might be able to fit a bunch of them up.

Hoist is probably the most important thing to have......a couple of strong blokes would be able to lift the thing out......maybe

I've got an engine hoist I need to get rid of. I'll post an ad in the for sale section, but if anyone wants to buy a heavy duty dismantleable engine hoist for $200ono? This one is strong as. I'd be surprised if you can break it.

:D

i went by precision differential and gearbox's today and asked about clutches he guessed about $440 to fit a clutch for mine i asked about a group discount for say having 5 clutches fitted and said i would have to speak with the boss but im guessing there wouldn't be much discount and i reckon Shaun can fit them cheaper than that with no discount

im sure we will all wait, wont be hard to realise we are missing the orange 32, you might remember my mates 32, acqua/green plates used to be

''step up'' ?? apprently had a few pics with you in a magazine?

"Forecast for Friday evening

A light shower or two about the hills and southern suburbs clearing by sunset.

Cool and cloudy with moderate southwest to southerly winds easing."

Damn it i want my 31 to be drivable soon ! Would be pretty fun tonight :)

i be there with my new clutch lol 1500kg pressure plate with single button drift clutch and 10kg chromemoly flywheel hahaha

thing is an absolute beast, 3rd gear dry road clutch pops ftw hahaha.

but yeh steve i wouldnt attempt to lift ur gearbox by ur self, i struggled to move one while it was sitting on the ground.

Was a good turnout at the meet point. Great to see some familiar faces and meet some new ones. I had to go back to work so I couldnt make the cruise, but I love the meet point, and even if I can't make a cruise I'll always try to at least get to the meet point

-D

***EDIT - I'd also like to give kudos to Kellie for organising this, printing the routes as well as putting the peons in their place. I like the meet spot. its good for people who work 9-5, and I think the police presence was handled very well. I think it's ideal for the po-po to stay informed. Means we get less tossers and conquently less defect checks. At least I hope so. As long as we dont have dipshits spoiling it for us (and Kellie in particular) then we'll have ourselves a really nice traditional run every fri nite that people can be bothered. ROCK ON!

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
