It's not, nor has it ever been, nor will it ever be, cool to drink any beverage from a f**kin jar

Shit no! That would be like following a trend... Might do something original instead like collecting nikes :P

If anyone is keen going on a spirited drive tomorrow morning south east with a mate that just brought a lotus.

Hit me up if you are

There's a meet at sky high mt dande tomorrow. Friend and I are going

Spent entire yesterday removing shit to check torque on head studs. ARP specify 90ftlb.. Blueprint says 80.... Sad

Then checked them...one was 80, some were over 90 and some were WAAAAAAAAAY less, like one full turn of torque wrench off.

Sure is a good day for a drive today!

Well if the head lifted one/some of them have become loose?

I don't usually enjoy watching racing on tv but weather is just asking to sit on the couch with a Kilkenny or 6.

(After walking 5km around a park)

Bought some Asics Kayano Evo today (so f**king melbourne wanker) holy shit these things are absolutely streets ahead of nike. I think a 25 year relationship is about to be tested...

Are you running in them or just casual? Have been using Kayanos as running shoes for years, updating them every other year. Such a good shoe. I wear them as casual / around the house for their comfort. It's like Jap cars versus Italian; Nike have the style, but the execution and tech isn't there.

Actually this brings me to a question for dezz.

Michael, as someone who buys limited edition Air Max 90's, are they of the same half-assed qualty as the standard stock or do they actually make an effort for these?

(The paint job in particular, which I understand won't be hugely obvious on your red and blues ones)

Dezz phillip island on the bike awesome fun, crazy speeds when you're going around a corner and look down at the speedo

Did miss not having a front windscreen though, 'sports' bike clearly more ideal for that sort of thing..

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
