Hey all

Well the 2005 snow season is fast approaching, with Tassie turning white and the snow making its way up here over the weekend :headspin:

Im pretty damn keen for the snow, either skiing or boarding, and was wondering if there would be any interest in going up for a couple of days by anyone here?

Plan maybe something like head up mid week, ski/board, drink copious amounts of alcohol and party on till early hours of the morning (snow bunnies included).

If anyone is even mildly interested, raise your hand and we can work something out.

I'll be interested, but work will restrict me to the weekend. i want to test out the 'snow' button on my stagea this year, that's what these beasts were desgined for.

But a snow trip has been on my cards for a while now, i haven't been the last few years due to uni being a bitch and the snow being expensive.

I'll be interested, but work will restrict me to the weekend.

Do the Australian thing... pull a sickie :D

Thats cool, thats the kinda feedback I was after... weekend is definately not out of the question :rofl:

I know a place in Jindabyne that I can get pretty good rates at, sleeps up to 4 in a room, tv/shower/heater etc, also has common games room, bar, and about a 5 minute walk to the main two areas of jindabyne (nuggets crossing and the other one) where the bars/clubs are.

Ill leave it open for a show of interest for now, then in a week or so maybe start organising something if people are interested :rofl:

Sounds awsome....

Been trying to plan a trip with some friends to the snow for the last few yrs...

But just hasnt happened...

yea work is in the way but......... " STEVE, STEVE MY NECK AHHH I CANT FEEL MAH NECK"

So thats easy sorted... :)

:):D:D:D

HELL YES !!!! :):(:D

Thats looking much better :D Then no-one has to worry about driving up as well.

Sounds good, Ill look into a few other companies and see whats on offer. After individually pricing things, it looks like a tour is the way to go to keep costs down.

So far we have interest from:

Nik (Amaru)

Andrew (SkyGTRline)

Andrew (Terminal)

Shaun (race_snooze)

Anthony (oscar32)

Leigh (leech_)

Cassi (skyline_babe5)

    • So..... it's going to be a heater hose or other coolant hose at the rear of the head/plenum. Or it's going to be one of the welch plugs on the back of the motor, which is a motor out thing to fix.
    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking
