6 year old JAG wallet brah checkin in

Don't feel the need to change it either, never been one really for fashion tho

i think i got my JAG wallet back in 05. still trucking, the only bit that failed was the plastic in the ID card slot.

looooool - clearly not the sole reason for cessation of production, definitely played a part

remove head - fit ARP studs - replace head with new OEM gasket - strong as houses

Dinner and Bistro Vue then hotel

not even...standard headbolts will suffice as long as threads are tapped clean and correct (not OEM) torque is applied and retorqued after 1000kms or so.....its around 75ft/lb instead of factory spec'd 55 ft/lb iirc...

the original design was based around an asbestos HG...new laws disallowed this at the last minute toyota had to change their gasket design to not contain asbestos....unfortunately this meant the torque specs should of changed but with no time for RnD on the new gasket it didnt happen...so the average lifespan is about 100,000kms.....OEM Headgaskets have been redesigned a few times to help solve the problem but (some) aftermarket gaskets have of course copied their design by now so most quality branded ones will work fine.....The real issue is in the torque specs...

and that concludes todays lesson on ye olde 7mge boys and girls...

real life.....

roses are red.

my hsv is blue.

i was going to buy you something.

but i spent it on fuel.

its funny coz its true :rofl:

I watched an early season 1 episode, where they briefly discussed GTR's and came to the conclusion that the 34 GTR is the best one, but the 33 was best value for money.

The 33 and the 34 are 90% the same, biggest differences being the wheelbase, attessa computer and gearing. The rest of the differences really come down to personal preference though I think we can all agree the interior trim and general build quality is better on a 33.

Well it does make sense, BBC is heavily controlled by the UK Government, so there is def some political motives to promote UK brands and keep local production alive...

    • 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.
    • Hmm not really, I'd say its race car life or modified car life when you make 3 or 4 times the power Nissan designed the car for lol. 
    • I'll let others with more breakage chime in, but I can't think of anyone who had a problem with the standard centre plate before they had a problem with the standard gears - the plate generally just gets replaced for safety when the gearset is upgraded. As for the gearsets, its not like they are OK at 600Nm and break at 601. Their longevity is a combination of how much torque you are making and how gentle you are on shifts (or not).
