Adding to the VicRoads rip off saga...

Just replaced spark plugs in car...it runs 63 times better...10,000km is too long for copper plugs in a modified car methinks. Though that interval was more out of procrastination.

The only reason I let mine stretch to 10,000km sometimes is because of the bloody RB crossover pipe and not wanting to scratch up my pretty valley cover paint if I don't remove it (+20 minutes) to the job.

I remember my old ford laser... Pop off the leads, unscrew plugs, screw new plugs in, cry because you drive a ford... Finished in 5 minutes

That awkward moment when your housemate receives a letter in the mail from the Australian Federal Police.

those guys hardly deal with misdemeanors or misunderstandings. I wonder if it also deals with Immigration issues, or would the Department Of Immigration just deal with it? maybe terrorism or illegal visa. hmmmmmmm *curious*

It's a 30 minute job that should be 10 minutes.

And working with old hoses and screws, I'm ultra careful about the way everything goes back.

I leave the valley cover off, so I can do 5 of 6 plugs without touching the pipe. But Nissan Y U put crossover pipe slightly too far over the 4th cylinder? If I had uni-joint sockets I could do it, but don't really like using those unless I have to.

Can't get started, Chemical Heart... Every time I get started, you pull me apart.

I ran BCPR7ES gapped to .9 and used to change every 20,000, even when changed they worked fine and looked 100%

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
