Side note : Did i tell you's that if i can get enough donations I will be growing a hitler still moustache for movember... but I might call it a chaplin... not sure the jury is out on that one.

Hmmm, I think a chaplin moustache is a little bigger than a hitler one. I'm willing to donate if you do an actual hitler one, and rock it to a meet. You can call it whatever you like, but you'd damn well better look like hitler :(

Done hitlering it up. . I'll get the donation forms etc ;)

I was rebuilding engines and gearboxes in my first year, the good part of being an apprentice in a small workshop. Yep clutches is actually taught in the second year tafe module. So yer they do teach that in as a 2nd year apprentice.

From my veiw, exedy is ok for an off the shelf application, i got one in mine thats lasted 3 years so far, i wasn't too happy with its clamping force so i had that beefed up by jim berry, its got a really nice feel to it now, not a weak stock feel. But i have driven smity42's clutch that jim made and its a great clutch doesn't slip and feels really nice on the pickup.

Also a jim berry clutch will last about 2 times longer in a ferrari than the standard one will.

My next clutch will probably be an OS or something like that.

Exedy do make a nice lightweight flywheel though

Yep all tax deductible. Signed up on the website and everything. Should have put the mo to a poll and seen which one would have been the coolest. We could change that ? Or still keen on the "hitler" ?

:(

There was a pole ? Man why wasn't I informed ? Sheesh..

Sorry haha next time i will be sure to inform you :(

Excellent. Always like a good pole...action...

So wrong ;);)

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
