damn i need new camber arms, running stock camber arms with natural camber is so shit, like -3.5deg camber

i think i'll just replace the worn out rose joints on my adjustable arms and put them back in instead of buying new adjustable ones

The latter, if I had a roller I'd do em myself.

Just make sure you don't get too aggressive. Too often on cruises you see guys who'd have the "backyard roll" done and the paint is stressed, there is unevenness in the guard... Nasty stuff all for the sake of saving a couple bucks and spending a bit more time on it.

was not me.. I just found out tonight caus I was busy all day/night and hadn't read my msgs

If members (that is you guys), can't play nice, be civilized and present the club in a positive light that is what happens.

Committee are discussing the issues and I would hope for a consensus by the time of the November Gen Meeting.

For those experts out there, just curious if the spark plugs I took out this weekend looked ok and are supposed to be this dark in colour?

Normally a mechanic takes them out and I don't get to see them but this time me and my mate who is also a mechanic took them out this weekend.

Cheers Bud!

Yup got real lazy in changing them. These have been in for about 17,000 Km's..... I know :spank:

I'll change them every 2nd oil change from here on in. Just need to be shown how to do it, which seemed easy enough.

I'll do it when I get my next set of wheels. Want some dish and painted centres

you can buy the SP1's off me when I get the rears, dont know why, but Im not a fan.

yeh.. easy enough for me too lol.. coilpack cover.. 6 screws..

and they're there lol

Sparks look fine Tony...normal build up considering how long they've been in for.

Easier on your SR20...you don't have to remove half of the intake piping and if I recall correctly your coilpacks don't have individual screws :/

spark plugs take me about 45 minutes to change being meticulous (cleaning threads of the head etc.).

yeh thats what I said.

nah the coil packs have individual screws.. i snapped one of the studs in there which you just reminded me to fix lol but yeh it only takes me 15 minutes to change all the plugs i just do it every service.. probably overkill but its $12.00 and 15 minutes extra.. rather than keeping track of when they went in

Cheers guys!

Yeah when my friend was taking out all the shit to get to the sparkies he kept on saying luckily I have this tool, otherwise if you did this yourself at home it would be a bitch for you to get 'x' screw out.

I get jelly when I hear my friend changes his spark plugs in his s15 in 5 mins.

    • 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.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • 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
