Edit

If you're not working Sunday rotors are a half hour job tops could have it done in no time with a few helpers

It's been a while but it's cruise time again

This time we will be heading north to Buladelah and taking a left to travel Wotten Way and back to the pub for lunch

Will be a leisurly drive north with plenty of chances to get some rolling shots of the cars etc

Meet at the BP at the end of the F3 from 9:00 for a 9:30 departure just bring a full tank of fuel

As with the other cruises we will be the most friendly well behaved group of drivers on the road and any bad behaviour will be reported to the police

Can't edit first post so will add it here instead

Drove the lakes way the other day in the truck and the start is in good condition save for a very short stretch of road that is rough in the truck but would be okay in the cars. Hillclimb sections are perfect with a nice turn around area just after the second descent with lots of room for all the cars

Just thought I would let you all know if anyone is keen for a detour to the cruise on the day

Hey guys, 34 tyre has a screw through it... We can go in either the cruiser or the GTI but the 34 will probably sit this one out... Plus is stinks like rubber for some reason :P

    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD? 
    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
