Gives more accurate toe adjustment rather than slotting the subframe.

Thought this was pretty cool if you want to keep the separate spring and shock.

Yup that one works out much better. Maintaining the oem points but allowing adjustability.

To compare which works better (coil over vs oem) the next is to find what the oem spring sits below.. chassis support rail etc

Exhaust done and dusted.

Amazing job. Really happy with how it turned out. Sits much more snug against the car which was what i was really hoping for :)

Sounds great. Not loud or droney and not much cabin noise (we did do a good job with insulation when i swapped the centre console when the manual was added).

On too the next job!!! :)

Put my m35 on a dyno today.

165awkw with a dump pipe back 3"exhaust.

Pretty happy with those numbers i think!

Going to go back after getting Scotty's dump pipe and see what kind of difference it actually makes. Everyone say's it makes a big difference, so we'll find out!

^Nice job! Looks awesome! Was it an exhaust shop or the same place that did your manual conversion?

Its the bloke who owns the shed next to the place that did my manual conversion. He does custom fabrication.

oh FFS, i'd finally settled on an MCA suspension because I couldn't replicate stock height with the BC's and then you all go and confuse the issue with your 'opinions' and stuff. WTF is this, a forum?

So in summary, going stock and replacing my shocks with OEM shocks will cost like 1200 (front and back) so they're out, BC's are out because they're too low at the back, MCA's are out because they're potentially unsafe and I need to have the car registered in VIC so it's going through the pits.

there's gotta be an easier way...

Are all the shocks dodgy? If not then just replace the unroadworthy ones with "good" second hand ones and then put the MCAs on after you get roadworthy.

They sell spring platforms or spacers to raise the springs for bCs don't they?

I think it's just having everyone's best interests at heart. Can always resell..

      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
