I spent all day (and I mean ALL FKN DAY) trying my hand at smoking competition style pork ribs. Having a chef on the contact list for advice makes it a lot less daunting, and pretty happy with the result, served with miso and lime slaw and hestons triple cooked chips

Family is good. Kids are loving being back at school.

My car is out of action. Corey has my injectors and will be getting them flow tested to see if one is playing up.

Hey y’all, how’s the weekend been?

I’ve been busy with the 4B but she’s ready for the Kimberly now!

We’ve also sorted the camper but I forgot to get a photo [emoji6]

Yummo, looks insane dale. I normally cheat and pressure cook them then add the sauce to caramelise in 240* oven.

I absolutely murdered a wrx last night. Revving popping and carrying on next to me. Off the line 2x at only 14psi. Then he thought he'd have a go in third so 18psi. [emoji3] of course I didn't break the speed limit and stringently followed all of the road rules pertaining to w.a. Considering its a double demerits weekend and I'm [emoji70]

Moar earth works?


Epic long weekend. Spent 3/4 days working around the house.

Removed about 3-4 swimming pools worth of dirt to make room for a 50m retaining wall. Took about 10-12 hours.

Dropped 4 big ass trees and cut them up and stacked behind shed.

Cleaned gutters then fitted 88m of gutter guard

Ran piping from fire to other end of house for ducting system. Was quiet and enough flow so bought the elbows and joiners and got everything up in the roof to finish off on a cooler day.

Adjusted timing and idle speed on the boat and general going over.

Tomorrow... relaxing day squidding with the boys on the boat

I knew cops were set up in an 80 zone near Bunnings today. A car flew up behind me then hit the brakes next to me when he saw all the cars pulled up ahead... but was too late. Mr plod got him. Merc drivers can afford it ;)

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
