damn those wheels look nice J Dawg....whats the specs on those wheels bro

18x9.5 +12 wrapped in 245/40/18

I was with him today when they were fitted and it looks very staunch from behind,

Love it :)

About coolers, Im in two minds about them.

The GT-R one standard is black... So I'll leave it like that and I am getting the front bar mesh so I'll be putting that on,

But if it were a custom system I'd have it all chromed up as it comes out the box :huh:.

He can't even do up a sump plug bolt without stripping the bolt and your going to let him do your cooler install :\ Your game!

I joke :)

Anyone think it's worth painting a FMIC matt black to maintain a stealth look?

I painted mine black to hide the stone dents... some people on other forums have suggested that painting the fmic black helps with heat exchange due to the color black being a heat absorber rather than a reflector like white but tbh I cant see how it makes any difference - esp since putting paint on acts as an insulator.... either way I did it for cosmetic reasons and it does look a lot better imho

+1... I :huh: too

I think the FMIC's look better now black too. Not into the wank wank bling bling look at me look at me factor.

Ben, I also caught 4 squid this morning down at Brighton Jetty. Probably could've got more if I had some more lead

How come u needed lead? Usually they congregate under the jetties...

Didnt get anything last time I went to Ardrossan (nothing legal or edible that is)... blue swimmers are very small this year for some reason

It was quite blowy this morning at 6am so I was having trouble getting the squid lure to sink deep enough. Most of the bluey's I've seen locally are small too as are the tommies

Ended up getting 23 good size panny's ranging from 40-55 cm in whyalla, bugger all bluey's around tho

Just dropped my subframe out the front and all steering lines.

Now for that to get sand blastered next week along with engine assembled :(

painting tomorrow woohoo.

at this rate your car will be finished before mine.... *grumbles* still not f**ken tuned =(

edit: ohhh... caprica startes today, but i think its just re-airing the pilot

When u got the right tools, some know how and some mates who know how to help out it really does help.

Got Andrew coming down Monday to start with the engine. Hopefully I got everything now.

Next is some nismo parts to freashen up the front end. So hopefully in 2-3weeks it will be all running.

been out fishing four times on various nights/various locations this week, holidays ftw!

we cleaned up a good amount of size and some absolute cracker size blueys off grange jetty late Thursday night / Friday morning. We did throw back a shitload of small ones however. picked up a few big sand crabs too.

Every time we pulled the nets up, never empty. More crabs than an 80s hooker's bush. After 1am we were the only ones on the Jetty, and that's when we bagged most, and the biggest.

it was dodge tide that morning apparently, so we didn't try for fish or squid.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
