Haven't been on the forum in ages mainly due to lack of traffic. Nice to see people are starting to organise something again. I used to be on here multiple times a day in the early to mid 2000's. Was a big distraction from my uni work back in the day. I guess as the very active members have got older their priorities have also changed. Not to say that they are not still car enthusiasts, but I guess as we get older we get more responsibilities. The younger generations, as mentioned previously, don't use forums as much as they were used 10 years ago and opt for facebook groups instead. It is actually quite sad considering the amount of information that you can find on these forums that you will just never get from a facebook group. Still to this day if I need info, I will search forums as they are a real gold mine.

The Wa wasteland used to be a great source of humour, barely anyone had a skyline but we used to catch up a bit. Few job changes between us and things went quiet. If I was in Perth Id push a few events but too hard from down south. I don't mind a meet at a motor sports event in Perth or something similar but not just a cruise. Definitely true about more responsibilities taking over too!

Forums are 11ty times better than FB!

    • 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
