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 see what you mean on that last paragraph and makes sense. I am leaning towards because I made the repair/filler area large that I didn't use a long enough block. Will minimise the area and let you's know how I go. This is random but I noticed when I put epoxy primer it felt flat but that's just temporary.
    • Tried to repair with filler only. The block is a foam block but quite hard and I put a velcro on it for sandpaper, the hook and loop system. It's not one of those super soft ones that just follow the panel. Similar to a dura block.
    • You need one of those automated sprays that puffs a nice small every 15 minutes in their room. Except swap the nice smell for chloroform...
    • Don't step down power supply size, maintain it the whole way. It's how I'd do it. OR, Id have one feed, with one joint that splits out to six smaller gauge wires that go to each coil. I wouldn't add joins like stepping from 12 to 16, at the first two coils, as if you try to continue that fashion, each joint will introduce a voltage drop. In theory, earths should be the same size as power feeds, however in this case the main power needs to be bigger due to the average size current. So the next question is, how much current do these coils actually need?
    • I think Murray is onto it. It's sounding like either it's a soft block, not long enough block, OR if you're chasing waves, you're going in the direction of the waves, instead of across them. Rotate your sanding pattern by 45 degrees is something to try. You said you're going in an X, so now instead, from the same perspective, do a "t" instead.   If you're not able to have the block sit on top of two high points, and not touch the low point between them, you'll never get it flat.
