I had this other shit that was even better than Lego...Was like building real houses with bricks and door/window frames etc....quality

Also had Lego.

I had a few things like that. Buildabricks which are made out of bakelight type stuff and have paper windows and doors and something else which was tiny little bricks and some kind of sandy mortar that held it all together till you put it in water and it separated.

Take the engine out, makes everything easier.

It sure does, but Im trying to do it this way so that when I've got the head off

it should be much easier to reach the top bell housing bolts that are apparently

so hard to get to.

Was staring at the oil filter today and was reminded of how much of a (c u next tuesday)

its gonna be. Double checked and triple checked that oil filter relocation kit was on

the high priority list

looks like they were together, rocked up in the same car etc. they were in a bit of a hurry from the looks of things so didn't really chat much

funny how his hair hasn't changed one bit since the make over haha

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
