Your ass getting sore from sitting on the couch (yes sitting on the couch, I'm not implying anything else) this summer...

List of SAU VIC Events for Q1 2014.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/437237-welcome-to-2014/

No excuses, I'd seriously be putting September 28th aside btw.

well now FPV is dead, the GT motor coming out in the XR8

so priced just over 40K new.

oh the 335, it has an over boost feature so if you give it a prod it does 375.

that's some bang for your back.

and considering the 2 AU built cars I've ever owned have been the ones that fell apart more than any other, great engine or not I think I would pass.

I'm sure when the FPV were done "bespoke" they were much better, but now they assembly line things, meh.

40k for the 335 supercharger engine? if the interior is elevated above taxi spec this would be fairly awesome - not a massive ford fan but that engine is amazeballs.

:wub: ham!

I've got heaps of spare hubs if you want one huy

Got to see if the other ones are broken or not, not too promising when two studs on one is broken.

Richo, will post photo of tyre later tonight.

one, more, have a pair of fronts and 2 pairs of rears I'm never gonna use.

i maintain my opinion that the new 5L ford engine is awesome. so easy to make power out of it.

oh I agree with this part

my mate may have one for sale as he is shooting for 1000hp and using a crate engine if your interested :P

    • 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
