This Arvo / Evening / Night I put new Balljoints in a spare pair of R31 Control arms I got (there was Nipple Greasing involved) :O,

pulled my Nolathane LCA bushes out of my old LCAs and put them in too.

Put the 27mm Front Swaybar back in with the FREE Nolathane D Bushes I got some months ago. (when I was sent the wrong ones).

Tightened a wheel bearing and Found and fixed a coolant leak. (I created) :rolleyes:

Was going to put in new Tierod ends but I couldn't get the old ones out. (I need me a Pickle Fork) but I think they are still ok anyway...maybe.

Steering still wanders a little but feels much tighter and direct plus less body roll. :thumbsup:

That 34 looks nice at the coast.

Finally assembled everything, and i can detail it now, also i can move the bastard out of the shed.

And i dont have sht all over the place, its all on the car, i can use the shed again for other things.

Yep, I don't mind a bit of nipple greasing, dependent on gender of course ... :wacko:

Thanks Mik, that was at Port Macquarie ..

so when is the big reveal Michael ?

Probably next weekend or during the week sometime.

Some polish touch ups, waxing, rubbers are getting better, a bit more on them, and a sunny day to get nice photos.

I just washed it again, pre final polish. Its weird washing a car thats not visibly dirty. But it has to have all traces of coarser polish gone.

Had a quick drive around the block a few times to warm it up. Its been a while.

Madness! Yes, we need sunny day for pics. :D

I fixed the Wagz's windows washers with a better motor. Now instead of barely dribbling on the bonnet, it nearly hits you in the eye. :laugh:

Also bought a new bearing for the old Dizzy, put it in and cleaned it all up for futures...

Yep drove it from Autotech to home supercharged. Blower was stuffed so I cut my losses and started making turbo manifolds. A year later and it's almost ready to drive again lol

Edit: same forged motor, just with T04Z instead of the blower.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
