See old build thread:

Ah nice, well least it's back on to getting some work done :)

2L mods have been abandoned. It's my junker that I drive to and from the station. new GTI is getting all the good bits bought for the 2L. Hopefully they'll all fit.

Sold the ceffy. In the process of sellign the S14 track car. Might sell the R32 too, then buy an R32 or R34 GTR down the track. Still a little attached to the 32 tho so haven't sold it yet.

Bought and sold a 240z and a Lotus Exige since I was last active here.

did you finish the chev engine conversion on the 240?

Got a roadworthy at the very start of today, passed no questions asked, nothing changed on the car since getting defected. R U f*kKIN MAD PETTETT U PHAGGOT.

About time a roady inspector doesn't pin you for stupid items such as coilovers and zorst.

And did the S14 build even start?

kinda. stripped it and de-sound deadened it, then chucked a couple of GKTech bolt ons to the suspension, stopped before converting the auto to a manual, and never restarted, so getting rid of it. Can't be reg'd so probably won't get much for it.

did you finish the chev engine conversion on the 240?

yes. engine conversion was done, but not the transmission. sold it while it was at the shop being finished.

How big is your garage?

4 car + wriggle room + 2 in the driveway. Or 2 car garage + enough spare parts to build another car.

Where abouts in dandenong has 4 car garages ?! weve only got a 2 car !

hehe 30% of my property is the freestanding garage. It's got enough room for 4 technically, but the way the door is you can only get 3 in, unless I jacked a car up and slid it sideways on trolley wheels.

I'd be annoyed too if I was doing the same job for 7+ years :P

He got me in 2006 in knox, he has been at it for such a long time.. Imagine the amount of imports he has seen over the years... Must know every trick in the book!

The first time I ran into him was '04.

    • 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.
