Dose's Sometimes DIY and Pay Someone Home & Boat Improvement Thread

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

What a day, been moving shit to the in-laws, cleaning the house, mowed lawn, planted a bunch of flowers. Then sorted out shit box for tomorrow, bleed brakes, installed new Intima pads (test compound), loaded up car with shit and ready!

Rotors look a bit cooked, I managed to crumble the Intima Type-D v2.0.

 

@iruvyouskyrine they're 57S

Dose knows I'm good for the $$

I've had to pay him for his services before.... ?

Rotors do look average.

Motor seized heading back to Sydney. Had full oil pressure, no over heating.

Was tapping a bit on the way home but just thought maybe lifters.

Car did hit the engine protection a few times on the track though for low oil pressure around big bends.

Now waiting for my mate to come back with a trailer on the side of the Hume Highway.

Yay?

Doesn't sound ideal. I live nearby if you need help next time you seize a motor at Wakie 

[Duncan]

BTW, i take it you had better tyres on this time? hope they were fun while it lasted

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

Cheers @Duncan!

Luckily just at the on ramp to Sydney out of Sutton Forest Maccas, safe-ish spot.

Same tyres lol.. 

My mate did a 1m10s in it, I managed only 1m12s

That sucks.... (engine seizing and mate driving quicker)

[Duncan]

well, you can't change the laws of physics; a borrowed car is always quicker than one you own.

at least it is a short walk to heatherbraes (or Maccas if that is your thing)

I did crack 196 km/h down the main straight but bitches out just as the barrier stopped.

Could have possibly gone 200 km/h+

You're f**king kidding me.

Dibs on cool shit when you part it out?

I am very sorry for your loss, for reals.

 

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

Is what it is lol..

Maybe the few times the Haltech went into engine protection was a sign I should not full send it around bends on noise.

Do you have logs of the sessions where the engine protection kicked in?

[admS15]

Man, that sucks. Very sad news, sorry it happened to you. f**ken Nissan's.

That sucks, dry sumped billet rb30det with Samsonas time? 

Hopefully damage isn't to bad and just needs machine work and bearings.

Get that part out sale going and find a 335i coupe. 

[Kinkstaah]

Have you considered a true boat? With a true boat anchor up front?

Sorry man. I feel you.

[Unzipped Composites]

Well shit ? 

 

This is legit the 7th RB I know of thats seized this week. Just as I get my block back from the machinist. Its like the world is screaming at me to stop what I'm doing.

[iruvyouskyrine]
