Update, we should have it back next week, there is still a lot of work to do, all the front end wiring needs to be redone as it was ripped out, wheel alignment, re buff the whole car, apply window tinting, re gas the aircon system.

I don't want to be that guy, but, I was taught that you're not supposed to buff a car for at least 3 months (normally 6) because the paint has to de-gass.

He’s the expert I trust his judgement, also my brother is a painter and said they do it all the time at the shop so it can’t be that bad for it

It depends on how the car is baked, there are baking techniques which allow the gasses to escape faster.

Bloody hell its Hanky, between the Doggo
And the Misso I thought we’d lost ya!

Happy Friday bloke, any plans for the weekend?

 

I heard there was a football match on, might check that out.

What about you?

I'm considering buying a 4WD which might impress you Martin. Trev might also be impressed because it will most likely be a dirty DIESEL.

I sure do! Hopefully in the new year I can tag along on a 4wd trip with you.

Some birds are taking on some cats in Melbourne apparently.

    • 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
