as the title suggests, does anyone round here have a guard roller i can borrow to do my rears?

mine broke the other day, and i cant bear the thought of paying for rolling guards when i have already shelled out for the freakin roller!

beers?

There's a guy from the AE86 forums who has a guard roller you could borrow but has to be used in his driveway.. I think.

$10 per guard and you can do whatever you want. He's in Endeavour Hills and if you're interested let me know and I'll pass on some details.

hey man.... hows the new car going? might have to look into it.... :)

still havent wired up my 4a yet ;)

Ah the turbo's seized, waiting on a replacement turbo at the moment. Apart from that it's a very nice ride. :D

Pretty sure you've seen him around the 86DC forums anyway, his name's Sam_Q. Does quite a bit of fab work as well if you need anything done. Wouldn't be surprised if he could do your wiring as well.

Shoot him a msg, I'm sure he'll be of some help.

Hey Adam-___- I thought you had a guard roller?

Dan (risol) on AE86DC could help you out, he runs ADM on AE86DC...

Might've had one which I borrowed, but never owned one.

Maybe SAUVic should purchase a guard roller and then lend it out to their members..

Too many people have had them and rented them out, only to have them come back broken... It might not be the best thing to do, Unless it was rented out at a decent rate.

Basically ;)

Eventually someone would screw it over.

There are plenty of places that have rolling devices. Some more primative than others - some people are also prepared to gamble the paint cracking if they get a bit too excited :bunny:

    • So..... it's going to be a heater hose or other coolant hose at the rear of the head/plenum. Or it's going to be one of the welch plugs on the back of the motor, which is a motor out thing to fix.
    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking
