They are big donks! And they sound mint!!

Yep I'm ex-westrac so I'll claim that compliment [emoji12]

No bull shitting out at westrac. Especially with the rebuild, dyno guys. And the men who sign cheques. It's a well known fact with in the industry that you know your stuff. Then move on to bigger pay days! 2 x dyno guys, 2 x mechanics, 2 x guys that pay the bill. Fully questioned on all steps, I honestly find it easier to work with those guys than lackeys. Broke down the quote with every single section of the processes costed and explained with pictures and drawings, plus induction time, travel time, materials list and labour break down. Good knowledge and fun.

Hmm locally available k-frame? (Australia) From a rear end jobbie. Seen a few places in wa that do half cuts? Would be expensive though?

Forward facing plengam and a low mount  manifold is pretty much it. I may modify the mpunts to drop the motor for center of gravity helping. Iv toyed with the radical idea of putting the rad in the boot and having the quater windoes as air intakes....

Its literally the rail across the top where the rad bolts too, the panel that sits under the washer bottle and a bumper rio. Bonnet and bumper will be carbon or fiberglass. New under tray will be mild steel and go from front bumper lip to rear subframe

Love my front plenum. Is it a 26? No. Where is the bov? Look harder. She's frying the 245's in 1/2. Need to look at new coil overs won't sit and squat since I lifted the ride height? Tramping. All the rear bushes Look good?

Coilovers wont help tramping, too stiff a coilover and low profile tyres dont mix. More side wall = better traction but reduces lateral loading. Less side wall = worse traction but better lateral loading. Then u have to think contact patch, right width for right power.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
