Call has been made, advise has been given.

Hope all is well... :yes:

I don't think my battery will fit as it has skinny little poles.

If Richards has thicker poles then it might fit?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ there is NO JOKES in this !!! LOL

If you get it Jeremy, we can fit it!!!

Ok so checked the alternater belt its nice n tight. Gauge says the car is sitting on 12v when i turn the ignition but dont start it. and itjumps up and down randomly between about 11.8 to about 15 when i was driving it home without using indicator.or turning on my head lights. I might bring it by the shop tomorrow (if its starts) if thats ok Bren?

I'm gonna take a punt and say it's the Battery dropping a cell.

Sounds to me like the alernator is trying to charge it but when you put the indicators on, the volts dip cause there's little support from the Battery...

But I'm an eternal Noob at these things. :/

Fitting some new tyres on the front of Oldm8 Helga so I can drive to Sydney and slap 12months on her. Gives me some time to save some cash-o to fix the Chassis !

Helga 2.0 coming to a suburb near you soon !

No worries ill come over in my lunch break. Thank you!!!

See you then

Smoooooooooooooooooooooth :P

Why do you need to go to Sydney to put rego on her? o.O

Becuase Helga is rego'd in NSW :( and given my chassis damage trying to get it into ACT is going to be a pain. My cuz knows a guy who doesn't even hoist the cars up when he inspects the cars, so I might be in luck given everythign else on the car is sweet !

Only problem is, I cannot insure it, Just Car knocked me back becuase of the chassis damage :( !

QBN and lots of places in ACT can do NSW rego inspections man, see if you can find someone local to look it over!

is that cos you told them of the existing damage?

This. lol you shouldn't have told them. Should insure the car comprehensively, then slide it up a gutter. Car is written off, chassis damage is a result of the accident, win win.

I tried to get some of the ACT shops to do a rego but they wouldn't touch it until it went over Dickson :P My cousin knows of a guy in Sydney who is very laxed about passing cars. The loudness and lowness doesn't even phase this bloke. Quick dolla aye?

Lying was an option, but I decided not too. Oh well, these things seem to work themselves out if you put in the time and effort. I guess you get an ease of mind if you ever buy anything off me, I wouldn't lie :P

It isn't lying, it's just omitting certain facts lol.

You only need to take it over Dickson if you're going for ACT rego - not NSW. The places you took it were either deadset retarded, or didn't realise you were after NSW pink/blue slip stuff.

The deal with Dickson is people are too shit scared to do a inspection on these type of cars and tell them to go to Dickson.. But you only need to go to Dickson is if it less that 10yrs old. I got my cars changed from nsw to act through a normal inspection place.

But yes leaving out some info is better than screwing yourself to the wall by telling the truth.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
