So those who have water craft on here, who do you use for insurance and whats the sorta cost?

i had my 18 ft nerues with sgic valued at $ 25g and i cost about 550 a yr from memory i did it at the boat show once the 25g was broken down into parts ie so much for the boat and so much for the trailer and so much for the engine .

i think club marine is another populer one as well

drivers side, you cant really see it, but the nut there is completely rounded.

passenger side aint much better, its slightly rounded as well. oh joy of joys.

im guessing that at some point in the cars history, its needed new rear brake lines, and the "mechanic" that did it was actually a neanderthal and used a hammer and a club to undo to the lines.

so i guess ill be spending today hunting down a few new hard lines.

You would be surprised...almost all of mine are similar to that, hence why i haven't had the braided lines installed yet, purely because the bolts wouldn't undo, and began to round off.

Thats not to bad...We're looking at 2005/06 rxt s/c seadoo's atm need a new toy to play with :P

Anyone able to help me out? Need someone to go to JIS, buy me some R33 Tie Rod Ends - $175, and meet me somewhere, ie vilis, and i shall pay you back. I need the suckers in my hand by Saturday morning. If you are able to help out, send my mobile an sms on 0411876139 with your name and number and i shall call you back.

Edit: If they aren't in my hands by Saturday Morning, i will most likely be unable to attend the track day...there is also $50 in it for who ever does collect them for me.

Boost down to JIS yourself on Saturday morning? Leave early enough to be down there at like 8am when they open? Leave yourself all day to put them in

Wise Choice Tyres & More at Lonsdale are installing them, along with new rear tyres and front wheel alignment. I then need to get to work at 9am at Noarlunga.

What's the highest oil temp you can reach before it's justified to change the oil due to it breaking down?

In the extreme heat going up extreme hills (extreme... f**k yeah), my oil temp eaches about 105... but that's only in rare cases.

Most of the time it sits below 90... usually 80.

mine are like that

have to use a multigripper unit to grab them, one of the real good ones that claim to grip anything.

in fact, Im going to try to take the front r32 gtst rotors/calipers/a1rm pads and braided lines OFF again, same with stagea, and install the r32 gtst fronts to the stagea

I do NOT want to run bendix pads with 2-pots at the track. 40mins = no pads.

just that I AM a neanderthal with no knees

Ive been in the JMW GTR when its getting severe punishment and it sits on like 60 lol.

Brendan, want another set of R32 GTST 4 Pots??

Got discs and calipers.

cheers, discs are all good, got spares.

put the r32 gtr calipers fron the sedan onto the stagea just now.

probably sell the stagea calipers and grab some r32's to replace the track cars

so, the stag has 4-pots now and new a1rm track pads, got a spare set too. going to test drive now and bedin.

penrite sin 600 brake fluid

    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
    • With ordering the belt, you're doing water pump and the idler and tensioner at the same time too yes?
    • This is just a dumb way of keeping the wastegate closed to make more boost. Undo it and either follow the factory setup or redo it properly. Manual boost controllers just use a spring preload to determine when to close in response to boost pressure so it no longer vents to atmosphere.
    • So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House
