what air temp do you see on boost in summer

On a warm day, with a big of flogging on the street mine would go up to about 83-84? and sit at 78-80 on normal day

edit: im thinking of water temp.. cant remember air. :(

Yeah but I am very fussy, and will pay for a perfect job. Also seen bad work from the other place mentioned.

Problem is such places pricing is pretty cheap, so i think that is why they can be hit/miss at times.

Autobarn spray can = wonders.

$32 for 4 wheels.

lol away, if you want a flawless what about high octane in NSW. Pay for it though.

Stuff going to Sydney lol

Well according to the Habib at the car wash last night, his best mate has one of 2 ken style accord front bars in Australia, (my mate has 1 and his mate has the other)

AND, his lil bro has a manual targa supra that just got dropped off to queen street in sydney for a 25k overhaul. Lol

I feel like saying something, but then I'm reminded of Darwinian theory.

Rimon I showed my panel beater mate that E46...dude works exclusively on top end Euro and reckons it would need a new boot floor and K frame, not worth doing for the price he selling - statutory write off. Makes sense cause if it was that easy the guy would probably have done it himself. Possible damage to diff and axles too, been hit pretty hard. With rear enders, you never know the extent of the damage because it travels up through the chassis and doors.

Side note, he's currently repairing 2 M1s...journalists stacked them both lol.

yeah not worth traveling interstate for it if it was local would definitely take a closer look though.

M1 wouldn't mind one of those either

in other news,

got out of tafe to my car to find that the moron in the corolla parked next to me had slammed his/her door against mine.

minor paint chip hardly noticeable but i was so fuming i took my key and ran it along their door. also left a polite note under the wiper

can't stand inconsiderate f**ks i bet he/she will be more careful next time they open their doors.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
