Miko,

Seems a few dudes got PB's.

I took the Volvo out for a spin tonight, it tells me it wants to go to the drags too.

From the looks of things it will get a mid 14 if I leave it in 'D' maybe a bit quicker. I'll have to get the shift kit put in so I can get 1st to 2nd working better on manual shifts, then it might get a 13.

Yea - it was interesting cos some of the guys didn't think the track prep was very good so mixed feelings really.

be interesting to see how the Volvo would actually go - I know it's quick. Would be great to see the look of ppl's faces when it rolls into the staging area:)

I was a bit pissed at first, seemed like I just wasted my money last night, but on the way home I was happy again, beat a few cars:D

There was a Commodore trying to keep-up around a corner, he fish-tailed it a few times before running it up and embankment at 70km/hr:bahaha:

See'ya:burnout:

Should be tomorrow - but as long as it's before next weekend i don't care.

Did you check the map for your cruise? Long term forecast says it may be wet next weekend, but the bbq spot that we checked is undercover - I will phone tomorrow to see if we can book that spot.

    • Thanks GTSboy. I will inspect the valves actually, is this something I can do while they are still in the head? The block/bores don’t look bad to be honest hey, I can still see the cross hatches in the bores and they still measure 86.5mm. I’m not sure how to measure the installed ring gaps but I will do that and take it to someone who can. 
    • I’ve had the same headache with my lowered car, scissor jack first then floor jack every time. Ended up grabbing an extra-low profile aluminum jack (about 70mm entry height) and it finally slides under the lip without drama.
    • No sync errors , i have installed AEM disk will return original 360 slot disk and check if there’s any one with running AEM disk could share setup 
    • Its been a while! Finally thought to do something on this car, so here we go. This will be a slow burning, multiple posts as I spend 0.5-1hr a day on this job, over multiple days... Full set of GKTech suspension arms!   Step 1: Buy Arms, done! Step 2: Start removing stuff. HICAS was easy. Rear suspension arms are now gone, they were a bitch but breaker bars with long handle extensions, 2 1.5hr slots later, stock arms are off! Next step, remove the hubs and take them to work to press out the bearings and bushings!
