just build a drive through one infront of it. front one for cars, rear for parts and tools haha..

This man knows his stuff.

Speaking of sheds i was considering building a massive one with 2 stories in it and having the top floor fitted out as a luxury appartment and under it have a hoist and all the car goodies for my hobbie's. Probably cheaper then a house and would be so farking cool lol.

Think of all the activity space i would have :woot:

That would be good

Just have to have a shit load of insulation and line the insides as would be a sweat box in summer

But I like your thinking

Though to make it really really cool you need a be cent size pool beside she'd deep enough to dive into from the top story

There are a lot of potholes, so the lead car needs to be on the ball :)

yea i would mainly be keen to to the part across the top, looks like a main road and is probably good quailty, but im guessing we would have issues with traffic...

ive driven up to gloucester in my car, not too bad bits of road, havent been past there though.

could make a weekend of it and stop in gunnedah overnight haha..

Alex and I used to do midnight runs out the Dungog way, unless its been heavy rain etc its generally pretty good........ A day trip is fine as long as we stop for a decent feed........

Itll give me time to pull over and replace whatever i have broken this time, and also allow Chookie to replace his blown tyres :P lolz

The Putty run we did a few years back was a long day, we did Old Pac, Galston Gorge, Windsor and then Putty Rd through to Singleton..... It was a 2 fuel stop trip on that run..... On that note, how far is that drive in KM? And have you mapped out fuel stops? (Taking into account that ill only make <300kms to a tank lol

You pair have nothing

You want a long cruise head out through cessnock to broke then take Charlie's road across to putty rd the head out the golden hwy to sandy hollow and turn onto Bylong Valkey way which goes back to Richmond then a short hop to Windsor and back up putty road to singleton and home

    • Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.
    • That's some good input mate. Nice.
    • So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.
    • Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on
    • Just did this job on my 32 with the boost doc kit. was quite simple to fit, hardest part was getting the rubber bungs back on the firewall. does anyone know how the heater will work now without the flap in the bend? Will I just have a heater on 24/7 now?
