hey just wondering if anyone has a car trailer in the act i could borrow one weekend in the next couple of months?

i use to live in cooma and my mum wants to sell my dads land-rover.

now i want to buy it but i want to get it to sydney.

why would i want to do this you might ask?

well it was my Grand fathers then he passed it onto my dad and now that my dad has passed away mum doesnt know what to do with it and wants to sell it.

but i have so many memories from id like to keep it in the family. especially considering my grand father bought it brand new.

so anyway i would come pick up the trailer on saturday morning bring the land-rover to sydney then bring the trailer back to canberra either saturday night or sunday morning.

so if anyone has one to lend then i will give payment of some kind for the usage. and work out a weekend when this would suit both myself and you of course.

here is what im talking about for anyone who doesnt know.

Thanks

john

Looks like something from a world war. Also looks in awesome condition!

If you dont have any luck here, a hire place wont charge much for that sort of rental, i use the Caltex on King Georges Rd near the corner of Forest road, usually the trailer is there, but it doesnt hurt to call ahead and book it :D

Might I suggest Absolute Rentals, 5 Beirne St, Wanniassa. Really good rates and the trailers are as good as any others in Canberra, book ahead though, Dave has become quite busy lately, word has gotten around.

      Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.

      It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.

      Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts.

      Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
