  2. i just booked my car in next month and M&C Doyle havent heard anything but good about them the guy was easy to deal with and gave me a better quote than i expected but i wont know how it turns out till next month cuz there heaps booked up... Edit: this is iLEC under the old mans user name
  3. yeah be careful of those vans sometimes they park them on the side of the road and coppers on bikes will hide in front of it pointing the gun at you thats how i got done on the road boostworx is on a while back.
  4. i have one in gunmetal grey 25 bucks im in sa as well cheers dean
  5. i have the corret size holesaw if ya need it ive done a few fmic fitups and a template made up to cut the right amount of the fan blades if required cheers mid life crisis
  6. i had a ac cobra i had a 351 windsor in mine some run 460 big block fords . one of the fastest ones around adelaide a few yrs ago was owned by a guy called rowan his run a turbo rb30 with autronic injection and ecu tuned by craig allan. the bloody thing flew but just didnt sound like a cobra should cheers mid life crisis
  7. i have milled out heaps of flywheels for speedway and get them rebalanced after the machining. in 20 yrs ive never had one exploded or even seen one let go . the closest to that i saw was the rear flange of the crank snapped of a car taking the clutch and flywheel and gearbox with it . if your doing any sort of track work a scattershield is a good investment to stop bits comming into the car u have to have a scattershield in every sedan class in speedway right from street stocks to super sedans . not sure if it's the same fpr circuit cars tho
  8. actually thats incorrect on a one piece shaft the yoke that goes into the gearbox slides back and forth as the car goes over bumps . the yoke should never bottom out in the box if it's the correct length . i have made shitloads of tailshfts for speedway cars that see more bump action than any road car . a 2 piece shaft is good over long distance from gearbox to diff it overcomes pinion angle and a whole lot of other issues icludin harmonic vibration that may occcur on a long one piece tailshaft
  9. ok you dont have to take the hub off thats that makes it a lot easier 1 take wheel off 2 remove rear caliper just undo the 2 17 mm bolts and pull to one side 3 in the disc there are 2 holes with a thread in them about 10 mm i think find 2 bolts and screw in to the holes a little bit each side this will pull the disc of the hub . make sure handbrake is off 4 tap the damaged stud out with a hammer the stud will land amongst the handbrake assembly u might need a magnetic screwdriver to help dig it out 5 push new stud into the hole as far as you can . find a nut thats bigger than the thread and put over stud then put on wheel nut and tighten till the stud is in all the way remove wheelnut and nut 6 put disc back on then caliper and the wheel job done took me about 1/2 hr once i fig out how to do it stud cost about 5 bucks hopes this helps cheers dean
  10. hey anyone know how to remove the rear hubs on a r33. ? from what i see you remove the caliper and then remove the split pin and try and undo the bloody big nut . after that is the hub pressed on or should it come loose at this stage .? i need to remove the hub to replace a damaged stud chees mid life crisis

  12. when i raced karts we wernt aloud to use wet tyres at all . so if it rained we pumped the tryes right up so only the centre of tyre was on the road . less hydroplanng hence you could drive faster . not sure if i would like to try it out on my skyline tho
