Brendans got a shit load of machining and hand work in front of him now.

Its in good hands from here on......

Indeed, He looked very comfortable and calm so i have no doubt that will he do an amazing job as per usual.

LOL, nice.

Dont forget to hand it to Brendan so he can machine it and the RB30 block to make it fit, and re loctite all the phillips heads screws on the backing plate. :)

Hey Pete, i swung past Brendo's today he was already aware of the loctite stuff im assuming you passed on that knowledge to him.

Yeah, was in the shit i gave you to pass onto him, im more worried that he may have overlooked it between all the info so i thought id mention it for you to remind him.

From 2 new Tomie pumps ive had, both had 1 or 2 loose screws (not tightened like the others) and 2-3 screws without loctite from the factory.

Loose screws = coverplate leaks oil pressure......bye bye engine.....very important to check.

Yeah just kick it man, wait for the engine to be built, your other business priorities come first, till its ready who knows what the latest and results are going to be.

Was showing it to Stefan the other night as he is about to order some other stuff from the US for his S2000 and was going to order the turbo he wanted at the same time, now he says what you just said, leave it for last. (Finally he is listening)

And im currently working hard on convincing him NOT to go precision. (Long story, we will talk about it next time we catch up)

    • If you ask just me you'll get 3 different answers.
    • Do not ever trust ChatGPT with anything math related. They can't do math. They have no idea what it is. With enough data we can fit a decent equation in Excel, or if the available fits in Excel aren't good enough, a Matlab clone.
    • You could check/calibrate that with a thermometer, we have long glass thermometers at work which go from -10 to +150°c, they are pretty cheap too I believe,  as monkey fisted soldiers tend to break them, and getting new ones don't seem to send red flags to the people that hold the purse strings Edit: after a google they apparently cost about $80, but, digital ones seem to be much cheaper at around $40
    • I should have prefaced all of this with "I'd really like to not pull anything out of the car for this" 
    • Me, I would happly spend some more coin on better tyres for my street car  Will they work, yes, of course, but why substitute some dry grip/braking distance, and wet weather grip/braking distance on what is really old tech to save some coin on your "precious" street car In the end it might not be you that farks up, it's the thousands of other idiots on the street that you need to worry about  For a street car that gets some "fun time", I have found that a quality tyre that can handle dry, wet, cold (Canberra gets pretty cold) and hot conditions, which may costs a little more, is great insurance  From my experience with them (driving around Goulburn in the winter) the RE003's are pretty poor in cold and/or wet conditions on the street If RS4's didn't hate gripping in the cold I would be running them always on the street,  great in the dry, OK in the wet, but, they do hate the cold, with a passion, I run PS5's year round now, basically, I've found the PS5 to be a great year round street tyre for all conditions, they last well, and are mid range pricing wise TL;DR. Tyre choice is probably like what brand and grade oil you should use, ask 10 people, and get 10 different answers... LOL
