Phew - washing, chamoising, scratch repairing/cutting, polishing, waxing then trim detailing your car is absolutely exhausting in this (even mild) heat. Going to wait until it is a bit cooler to do the inside cleaning/vacuuming then she is ready for a final exterior wet coat Saturday 6am.

Mind you, the 35 is now looking a million bucks :D

I'm gona spend all Friday night giving my car some lurve getting it ready for saturday.

in fact what polish/scratch treatment do you use for the black duco Andrew? Is it a light compound treatment? I don't want anything 'too' heavy duty that is going to removed a few layers lol

f**k that

i intend on fighting these cockmongers

no retreat, no surrender

-D

Dunno if you saw the news tonight but Rannwit has made a backflip and is now willing to talk about this motorsport complex, he just doesn't want it at Gilman he wants it somewhere else

Is that right hand side standing at front of car or right hand side of radiator?

So they bolt into R31 as well??

I need bigger radiator, now with the FMIC installed the water temps have gone from under the 1/4 mark on the gauge to over half way...

lhs standing from front of car (drivers side) /rhs looking at it from the rear of the radiator

snap, beaten to it. sorry bout that shane, shoulda clarified it. I know you can do a 33 rad into a 31, just modifying the way the top mounts are (33 are horizontal, 31 are vertical, literally bend them 90 degrees and snap it fits)

on another small note, i can go buy my winch tomorrow w00t

who can say no more push recoveries for non-running cars?

Yeah ... prob Murray Bridge!

At this point in time, I don't care. I'll travel to Murray Bridge if I have to for a decent motorsport venue. As long as they can cater for competitors, spectators, volunteers and all vehicles with all the proper infrastructure and services, then I'd travel to use it than a run down, derelict venue.

I can imagine many people will complain if its a fair trek to get to it ... but most of them wouldn't use it anyway. They'll find other excuses to hoon about on the public roads. You could stick the venue right in their neighbourhood, and they still won't use it.

If its modern and has decent infrastructure, the serious people will travel for it. Hell, I'm bored with Mallala right about now. My next track day is at Eastern Creek, then Phillip Island not long after. I'll gladly travel for a decent venue.

A mate of mine whose just come back from darwin, says the track days they have up there..kinda like our saturday night drift pracs, cost something like $70, and you go for a blat all day.

If they can do something like this..then yeah, im down...lend me a car someone? :P

damn took so much time in cleaning the wheels but they look at least respectable now.....car is cleaned and looks decent enough for the show.....thanks once again for Matty the towbitch for towing my car again.....cant wait to get back and enjoy a beer with ya mate

now i am so f**king exhausted....time to go and watch some ufc later on

okay........ i've been f**k assing around all week organising tyres on the ninja for the meisters. I assumed 245/40 stretched on a 10" wide rim would be suitable enough to be able to get my car in and out of my driveway without the front guards bring rolled, but NO! Fail... Can't get back up my driveway. 1. I wna slap the cvnt that designed our house 2. I wna slap my car for giving me the sh!ts and no 3. lol

Okay, so now I need to get my front guards rolled, I'll get onto wheelworx about that later unfortunatly its going to be boring-spec stockies for the car show this saturday :( I don't even wna enter now thats how over it I am.

end. f**king. rant. ffs. aids.

Cheers anyway man.

Now I have to wait untill the guard gets changed because when the lady reversed into me, the guard was replaced and the indicator hole wasn't lined up properly *not on the painters side* but they didn't check to see if holes were the same they had just assumed they were being a compliance thing, as you would I spose? And now they're going to replace it again and get the indicator holes parrlelle each side to each other so I have to wait for that :( FML

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
    • Hey mate, really appreciate the help. Have been looking pretty extensively myself and was certain they were retro fitted, but then ended up finding a 4 door with what looks like the same side skirts or at least the closest I’ve seen.
