This snorkel template is shite. I don’t wanna drill the guard haha
Is it round? Masking tape the paint. Put the 1/4" hole through first before the holesaw so it doesn't grab and pull on the thin metal. A 1/4" shaft in the holesaw will be better than a drill to stop wandering. Hold the drill at the required angle, high pressure low revs. trefolex rtd or any lube. Whalla. Quality holesaw and arbour a must.
morning kunce!!!
 
So, today is the 20th wedding anniversary (insert joke here about less time served if I had murdered instead of married etc)
apparently 20th is China, so the decision is, intercooler or pit bike?
Congrats dale, we hit the 20th this year, f'ing long time mate. By chance availability and what not I married the wife on her birthday. 1 gift to rule them all. Never forget because my mum msgs me All birthdays a week before;-) show us your mum;-)
U can still get them cheap if ur willing to buy a bit of a dog. I look at around 10 cars befor i brought my last one. Im in no rush so il do the same again till i find a yellow one

Came with a hole saw. Ran a 1/4 pilot them bam!

Drilled through the template slowly then added more pressure as it went through metal. Paint all good right up to the edge

This thread appears to get the most WA Traffic 

anyone selling some 275 / 40 / 17 drag radials in WA, prefer Mickey Thompson ETs 

also after a set of 33 GTR rims, or any legit jap rams in 17x9 +20 or so 

 

Cheers,

Just whoop ass Wednesday mate, 

 

I don't live in Australia, however I am back for a few weeks shortly so wanted to give it a nudge on radials. 

Have had josh at Galvsport doing some testing while i am OS. 

So plan is to do a pass on the AD08s to match Josh's time 

Racewars 

then bolt radials on to see how we go.  

Result from Josh's testing below

We went away last week and the fridge in our van held food for 3 days plus a bottle of champagne and 40 beers.

Should be big enough I reckon



Trying to plan a shake down 2 night stay thinking Collie end of March and take the pups got any hidden spots I should know about?

Glen Mervyn dam, Minninup pool (and sandy bay right next door)

Mebbe even head out towards the power station and take a look at Stockton Lake?

However -  there is a track running from the highway (before the cemetry..) near the biblimum track called "Collie Scenic Drive" that takes you along the river towards the back of Collie towards minninup pool etc, and it has a crapload of perfect little camping/marroning/swimming spots. Dunno why its not better signposted, just watch out for dudes on dirt bikes :)

    • 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
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
