Steve, I'm guessing they're 1 watt or less?

Luke Heslo, use the principle of $$$ vs Performance Gained to work out how far you should go........sometimes you can spend $1000 for only 5kw of power more.

Very true, Law of Diminishing Returns :D

Spot on guys, was speaking to Dave (scandyflick) about this earlier and we both came to the same conclusion. You can keep going and going and going but what you get in return may be very little.

Well I should probably go to bed after another night of watching the World Cup.

I was disappointed when I went for a walk at 6am that the sun still hadn't come up. I didn't see it yesterday and probably won't see it again today.

not sure Pete just posted em for a cheap option for people that done have a set, i have a 1w motorola talkabout piece of crap it works 7km line of sight

I got a 5 watt Feidaxin from ebay for $80.... plenty of good chinese CB's that have loads of power and a bunch of features. I bought mine with a USB programming cable so I can do fun stuff with repeaters and the like

able to talk to my mate in Henley Beach and I'm near Hampstead Gardens so thats quite a way - and thats without upgrading the antennae

hey Nigel, i was just looking into something similar (on a much smaller scale though, just the wifi network in my house between the media box and my media server needs a boost)

i'll dig up the websites i have found in a moment

cheers. I found one on Egay, but reluctant to buy from hong kong with no warranty, and poor item description.

I'll be setting up a 1.2km wifi VPN, and need something BIG.

Ps: when I upgrade, you are more than welcome to have my old 11dB antennas to upgrade your wifi :)

31 is alive again, limiter check, all good.

just the VS commo rear callipers to be put on and splice into break lines for hydro and its done :)

after i pick it up, that will make it over 10k spent so far.

and its just a 31.... so much for budget slider.

total would be half that if i did as much i could myself.

I've sold my car so skids for me soon too :)

My first time out there is going to be so nerve racking, once I get passed that first initial point and get some confidence it'll be good fun

I'd much rather my first time actually out there be a private day rather then spectators everywhere :D

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
