here's what your been waiting for some pic's...............

relocated the horns to the otherside to make room for my powersteering cooler.

and managed to fit a new tranny cooler with fan infront of the passengers side wheel.

it was a C*** of a job but took it for a test drive and no leaks, so now just gotta button up some bits and pieces and wire up the fan :)

had fun at sydney motorsport park on saturday............ go pro footage still to come. managed a best time of 1:14.77 with overheating brakes and motor temp spike!!! got to hot so i called it a day and wet and jumped in a cold swimming pool instead.

Is that video on slow mo? Either that or you're being very cautious?

It's wet nummers....his in a 2t wagon with sort of shit tyres on a track that has not been rained on in weeks. There's a reason your kind always crash isn't there!

see me entering into turn 1 for the very first time (between the small straight and into the long straight over the hill)........ wet track pretty much no throttle just enough to keep the speed at 80km/h and see how much the car got sideways, it was slippery. even in the dry i could only take that corner at about 100km/h and the car still got squiggly.

like Criag said of course im going to be cautious first time on the track, first time on the course in my only car be it i dont use it dayly but still.

wait till i get the other vids up, this wasnt timed, but the next session that was and i got a 1:20 lap and then once it was fully dry i got a 1:15 and later in the day before it got to hot i got a 1:14 so i'm quite happy with it, it's no track car by anymeans but it was a load of FUN.

if i wanted a circuit car i'd go buy a S8 RX7 and build that up.........................

    • To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...
    • Good old Orange Park hey... 😛   f**k I miss that race track
    • lo, it was a death trap. Good times. Got any Fatz Drift Day DVDs still available?
    • Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.
    • Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
