Looks nice, good luck. I made heaps of offers on houses when i was looking and all offers were above the asking price and i still missed out on about 6 or so houses, was a crazy time to buy.

Cheers mate. Yeah I've made an offer or two on other houses and have missed out so I know it's a hard game to play. That being said, I wasn't as excited about the others as I am this one so I'll probably push a bit harder for it too

HIGHGLEN... Hi Glenn...inviting enough for him lol

nah looks the goods bud, hope this one works out for ya :cool:

Well I've probably found my house. Walked in today at the open and just had a gut feeling this was the one. Not getting too excited yet just incase I don't get it but will be making an offer on it :cool:

not you too?!

I put an offer on this 2 days ago and just got a knock back

It's a definite knock down on a nice bit of real estate overlooking a nice reserve

Hopefully something else comes up so I can rebuild

epic lolz at clipsal.

old dude was sneaking into corporate box to get free shit when he was climbing back down onto fence then wheelie bin. wheelie bin moved and he fell and landed on his head/shoulders while getting busted by staff.

dont know what happen to donut king r35 also :cool: was there the first 3 days but not the 4th. although he was trailing for most of the races unfortunatley and for some reason it was squeeky quite compared to the other cars.

just sent a payment off for those foglights.

and my bar is almost ready for paint.

already spent about 3 hours prepping it, probably got another 3 before its spot on.

being a perfectionist sucks.

sucks for the wallet, but you'll be that much happier when its all done to a high standard

my wallet sympathises

-D

save for the upfront purchase of the bar and the lights, the wallet hasnt felt a thing. wet/dry paper, primers, fillers, epoxies, fibreglass kits, resins, all that have been purchased when needed over the last few years, just use what i have.

once i get the prep done to an acceptable standard, all itll cost from there is paint (~$100), and a jar of coffee ($30).

fixing that crack in the corner is gonna be a bit of a pain though.

anyone know if this compression test is good 10.5 11.0 10.0 11.0 10.0 10.0.
What measurement is that in?! Or is it meant to be 105, 110, 100, etc?

Even then, that's crazy low.

Im assuming he means its in Bar, in PSI it would be this:

152.25 159.5 145.0 159.5 145.0 145.0

If thats the case, the figures arent that bad in terms of thier levels, but 14.5psi difference is too much, Ive been told 12 is the max.

My RB20 is below 100psi on all 6 cylinders....

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
