hahahh... today my car were making some weired sound under the bonnet... so I had a look but the sound went away...

It sounded like thin metal was rubbing together, you know one of those high pitch noise...

anyway I gave good look Boody flattened empty coke can was stuck between arm bush and front left wheel drive train.

so every time I steer left or right, it made that noise...ffs

I thought I blew something... :lol:

anyway I yanked it out! all ok nice and smooth no noise exapt sound from exhaust hehehheheh..... Broooommmm!!!:burnout:

Moral of story?!?

If your car makes strange noise pull over and check it out b4 it gets bigger problem and check under side of your car time to time!(while I was checking under the car, unfortunally I could not locate my Neons :O)

cheers

Yeah i once had a bird with it's neck wrapped around part of my underbody, so i said Oi! NO TEETH! now get back in the Kitchen and cook me some pie!

AHAH sorry guys i had to!:cool:

I thought coke cans were a modification from Japan to help compression under the engine bay AH MAN! *25GTT slips outside to remove 12 coke cans from under his bonnet*

Had a bad one of those on the weekend. The Ulsar was giving off a rubber smell on the way home on Sat night. Sunday arvo took a look and the rear hand brake line was lying across the exhaust. Really bad design gives bugger all room for the hand brake cable beteewn exhaust and fuel tank. Took a while to fix as well..grrr

UNLESS IF THEY SNEEZE! then it's bye bye to Mr Winky! And Hello John Bobbet!:uh-huh:

you know how they say coke can cleans coins and stuff if you were to spill it on plastic say in your console somewhere do you think it would melt away at paint or plastic if left untreated? or grow mould and grow into some grotesque creature which takes over perth then vows for world domination against pepsi?

Can of Coke exploded in my car the other day. I cleaned and cleaned, and I am still finding sticky spots.

Blue Pepsi, Worst idea ever. It is The smae as normal pepsi, just blue and slightly worst tasting. Terrible terrible idea, and no ads for it! It's going no where.

Greg. :devfu:

    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
    • Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
