morning all.

James - helping Nick with his airpod today and also getting started on the Toyota Sera.  Seeya later @ 6pm @ crazy old man's place :D

yeah about that, I've got a manual for the immobileser in that sera let me know if you need it. There are quite a lot of things that can be changed on that particular system. Also tell him to get another button thingy because if he loses both of those and he dosen't have the codes it will be a pain in the ass to fix.

Might have to meet you up where we're getting something to eat about 30 mins later, on account that my dad's getting that new car that I was talking up the other week, :) today. And I need to see it.

YEEEEHAAA!

Well could not take it anymore, rang up Gav and...............

Replaced control arm

Replaced rack end

Replaced castor rod bushes

There is a bit of a problem with the left side camber which they are going to fiddle with the crossmember to fix and get the alignment fixed and hey presto!

I might have my beast back tommorrow, YEEEE HAW! Gotta love Gav, so good to have such a great mechanic, never had one that is so good!

I AM SO HAPPY! woo hoo!!

yeah.. least it won't cost you the earth. May even handle better than before as that stuff tends to wear over time as well.

Yeah.. get a full exhaust.. buy an off-the-shelf jap and fit yourself, what you save on labour you can go full system.

What do you think about this trust one, going to ask if he'll do it for ~$500 inc postage, dont think he'll do it though....... But what am I looking for when I buy an exaust?

looks ok.. don't forget postage costs will be steep on an exhaust.

Just looking for rust and holes i guess.

hmmm.. looks loud.. no 2ndary muffler in there. Just the resonator. Depends what you want -- and whether the cops hassle you or not :)

Well that will be the only think that will be a cop attractor, so I guess I can live with having one thing, wouldnt want too much more attracting unwanted attraction. I just want to get that and then eventually getting the turbo to cat and high flow cat.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
