I would like to borrow someones stock springs so I can have a set made for myself and list the details of the new slightly harder and lower springs for everyone else. Do away with the uncertainty of what fits and what doesn't.

i have springs in melb... interested in custom coils if you can get them to put the stock dimensions on record... who are you looking at using? what do they charge?

I am waiting on a reply from a local mob as to what they charge for a custom set...

I'm not sure who I'll go with to get them done, I'm not getting them cold wound or anything special like that. Basically as long as they can make them to sit the right height, with the spring rate i want, out of quality steel i'll be happy.

The goal is to get the springs so they go straight onto a standard bilstein strut and work with no mucking around. I'm thinking about getting them made about 25-30% stiffer than standard and sit around SK's recomended height.

And as for price, I'm guessing around the $250 mark, but i have no idea.

Not sure if i want to go that firm on mine, I travel some pretty crappy roads over here.

2.9kg front and 3kg rear is standard, so i'll probably be aiming for around the 4kg mark

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      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.

      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
