I am not sure where to mont my New SAFC2 in my car I can decide where to sit it, anyone got some trick places they have monted there safc's?

- In the glove box :rofl:

- Next to the ciggy lighter, remove the coin tray.

- Above the coin tray, below the head unit.

Personally, mines in the glove box, I dont the like idea of eye candy for theives.

as you can see adrian has the obvious "blue screens of death" look going on his nice 4 door.. :) A bad idea if he was in melbourne, but here is QLD :(

you may also prefer a more subtle look that I had on my old r33. If i had the inclination I would have inset it properly to match the face unit.

I had mine under the dash, above my left knee. It looked quite nice, when I sold it I really missed the nice blue glowy screen. Still do.

Probably not good in an accident though. Footwell's are designed rather specifically to ensure minimal damage to your legs...

I saw Jim's install and I reckon I would knock it with my knee everytime I scratched my balls.

I'm not too enamoured with the ricey blue AVC-R screen - I have mine for quick display in my glovebox.

An idea I had was to mount it in the sun shade, but they're slightly too thick, too heavy to be supported perfectly and when it's up, buttons might get pressed... and then you've got to cut up your sunshade and run cabling, blah blah blah. Might still put my S-AFC up there, but I"m pretty lazy. :D Feel free to give the idea a go though. :D

      I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.

      Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!

      I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)

      I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
