Thanks to Nick and Sam for hosting us for a fun day :P

Not a huge turnout considering we were keen to do some fundraising for MAS, but many thanks to all those who came along. Ash arranged some fantastic trophies (can someone post a photo, I forgot) and the 'How much power does the Lada have' comp was great fun and helped raise a bit of coin :)

So...

Best power 4WD was JagR33 (Jack), best power RWD was Slayer_1971 (Rohan). Can't remember exact numbers - Rohan, Ash has your trophy.

The Lada made 40kw at all 4 wheels - with a top speed of 136km/h :)

Snowman (Andrew) was closest at 37kw!

The raffle was not run, as not enough people were there - so we'll hold it at AutoSalon, buy tix from the stand, to draw on Sunday arvo when the dyno comp finishes.

Thanks again to everyone who came along :P

Just a couple of photos:

if some people didnt know me i was the guy who turned up in the red ford raider that would easily put the lada niva gtr to shame (a mazda engine is better than a french engine/commy engerneering)

i had to leave because today was a greek festival and it was my final performance after 13 years, so yeah had to rest for that, and i also met steve bracks, but didnt hit him, he shook my hand....sorry guys :P

And the trophy probably would have suited you too INASNT :(

Correction: there were plenty of people who turned up - its just that not a lot actually dyno'd their cars. Including me because I don't want to start all over again with dyno's - better to stick to same brand AND workshop for comparing future mods etc. I know it was a fundraiser but I didnt have the cash to do a dyno just for the sake of it.

Was good to catch up with people and talk to a couple of new people too :D

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
