it was the only weekends they would give us :(

I know it is not good for the club dollar-wise, but I loved the Bathurst long weekend Texi.

Almost no-one there, and after lunch I finished a run, went to a nonexistent queue, and went right back on again after the guy infront finished his run. So epic. I think I got 30 runs that day and nuked 3 out of 4 tyres!

Also, here is my install.

I mounted the bar to the bolts that hold the seat to the rail, so the extinguisher moves with the seat.

Only downside to having it permanently mounted (although I can whip it out pretty quickly. heh heh. ;o) is that the black handle *can* get caught on my wife's dresses/skirts.

My Car is a daily and I leave it in. You get used to stepping over it and now don't notice at all.

Thanks mate!

That's so true. I keep mine in the car 24x7 and most of the time i'm the only one in it so the passenger side is really the best place for it. I can reach it and release it with one hand, and it's nice to know that if there is an electrical fire or you go to help someone in a car accident that you have an extinguisher on hand.

Yeah the cabin of the 34 is small enough to have it in the passanger rear footwell and still have easy access :)

Mine's in the passenger rear footwell of my Stagea too, and even if there are people travelling in that spot in the back seats it barely interferes with foot room.

Sorry guys - got home pretty late from work last night and just crashed out. I'll do my best to get it done over the weekend - if it's not done by the AGM, everyone there will bug me about it until it's done.

Will see you there man :D

Does she still get surprised when it goes off unexpectedly between her legs?

Just paid and sent in registration forms. Just in regards to the cams/aasa licence... which one is better? I don't have either so will need to sign up for one on the day.

Eddie.

If you're only looking to do Texi events, go AASA - less bullshit and it's cheaper.

edit::

I should have responded to everyone by now that's emailed - I'll figure out numbers tonight.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Maybe it's time for a M3 F80 LCI, and leave it stock.  Drive it to a shop, sip on your latte with nutmeg whilst it gets serviced and on the way home swing by and grab some chai mix for the evening.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By sonicii · Posted

      yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
