scratch that...(geeze im good at making decisions)

head out very soon, gonna crash the tech night party :) seems there is a bit of room even if i dont see all the work and info. this way i dont feel like i'll be out all night

sort your tire situation out Joe?? good thing is...we couldnt hear it while following you. but i wouldn't drive too far on those. they look kinda scary. see if you can just take the spacers out till you get new wheels?? it may not look as good. but your guards and wallet will thank you :thumbsup:

Sup all?

I have not been active much lately and probably won't be until after christmas. Work is hectic, I am trying to get fit and healthy and my wow addiction is now back in full swing (thanks blizzard for making Diablo 3 free if I re sub for a year.) So yeah I am hoping to make the SCC maybe do a eumundi cruise in DEC before christmas.

Feel free to drop me a line if you want to do a BBQ or something or have a question.

no worries man, i'll def be going to the SCC, and there is talk of setting up a X-mas suit and tie happy laps + club dinner at lakeside early to mid december.

dont think i have the will power to get up to umundi for the markets tho, thats saturdays and wednesdays right?? i like my lazy sat mornings after a week of pre 5am wake ups.

speaking of WoW....just getting off it now to go to bed, looking forward to diablo3. play more GT!! or get Forza so i can come see how it is :P no way im buying an Xpox for 1 game......which i would then have to buy a wheel for, as the G27 doesnt work with the Xbox :(....lame, that very quickly thwarted the vague idea of getting one for it....dam it looks pretty tho.

on another video gaming note, played BF3?? ralf is having issues...and it seems alot of peeps are. anyone here got it?

I have it, I have been smashing it up online. as per usual EA have had a shit launch with the server browser not working and game glitches (they always release before the game is finished) apart from that I have had no issues with it I play it when I am over wow. What server are you on for wow and what toons / level

ralf, maureen and i are on Kilrogg (due to ben getting us into the game and he was on there with his friends, but now no longer plays). and a whole variety of toons. all my high lvl ones are plate wearing DPS heros (warrior, DK, and pally)......screw tanking. most tanks are douches...and i dont wanna be a douche :closedeyes:

Ralf has his BF issues sorted. he basically needs to exit and restart everything to do with it every time he gets kicked or leaves a game. gee its pretty, and a whole lota fun even to watch, might think about getting it eventually

Keep alive Post!

Where is everyone? I take a holliday from weekly meets and everyone else decides to follow suite, Hmm I am giving me an obscene ammount of cash lets see if that catches on.

did someone say cash??

lol. we've been going and seeing the westies on thursdays instead :) although i didnt go last night. ive been far to tired working in Noosaville all week...200km round trip each day sucks...oh and did i mention i got home at 6:30 today :thumbsup:

Would love to Bodo, but will have the young fella, on another note, I was thinking about your idea with the coilovers at the rear and how to change the settings without taking out the back seat, did you think about using some conduit say 20mm conduit with a rubber band type rubber around the nob on top, slip the conduit over that, in my mind the rubber and conduit should make a good grip and allow to turn the nob easily

yeah mine was made or rubber and dowel. but the rubber join although being tough old rubber was still to soft to feel the clicks in the coilover hence why i went with the ratchet ext and uni joints.

you will be surprised at how far it really needs to bend to come out next to the speaker grill. and i wanted as small a hole as possible in the shelf.

but by all means give it a go and let me know. :thumbsup: very interested in seeing more ideas on this. might even start a thread about it seeing as i couldn't find anything about it

I'll give it a go when I save up for a set of bc's, I just feel that in theory it should work, plus the thread idea sounds like a good idea

Might ask for the services of some people on here when it comes time to install everything, so we can document it all, or I might end up say f**k it and do it myself

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
