Stric - hmm - me thinking I'll be checking mine - or getting them checked when the dump pipe goes on.. As for the goon like strength - can supply that easily enough (me not smart, can lift heavy stuff but! ) - though was hesistant to do that because the turbo seemed to be constrained in it's moment by the hard piped oil line underneath. In other words, I'd rather romove it than chance breaking - Zanda would never let me hear the end of it..

Morning.. anyone around at this time of morning?

Hey - feck off.. We don't have to pull the manifold off - just drop off the oil supply hose and take the bolts out between the front pipe and the cat and we should be able to get to it.. trust me.. hehehe...

me out too.. time to do the long distance phone call thing to malaysia... gonna cost me a bomb.. nite all

can also play wiked drift bizniss videos downloaded from the net thru tv and big speakers.. much fun!!

Macka - DVD rom in computer which will play absolutely anything.. connect to tv via svideo output from video card.. connect to surround sound amp via optical output from sound card for 5.1 surround.. easy..

righto - update.. Got to the turbo (finally!) after pulling off all the piping & shite above it. After removing the heat shield - hey presto - there's the flange and it's four, oops, I mean 3?! nuts holding the turbo onto the manifold. These things have tab washers to lock the nuts in place and it wasn't bent back - how the hell did one of the nuts come off?!? The other 3 were finger tight too!? So anyways, got the 3 nuts off and moved the turbo back a bit and DOH! A bit of the gasket falls into the turbo. Looks like the whole thing is comming off to remove this - though hopefully I can just get to the bit of gasket with some pliers or something. So some more questions - how tight should the nuts be? That is, the one's holding the turbo to the manifold. Is there anything I could've forgotten to do that will cause the car terminal damage? Hopefully putting it back together will be a straightforward and easy job for Saturday night. Any advice/criticism/shit giving welcome.

easy way to get around zoning of dvd players - plug in ur computer to the tv.. works a treat!

evening all.. got zanda's turbo off.. found the problem with the turbo/manifold gasket.. it's missing one of the 4 nuts holding the turbo on!! not quite sure how it would've come off cause there's a tab washer there stopping it? also the other 3 nuts were like finger tight? wierd!

bye all... have a good night.. paul - gimme a call if u wanna discuss prices for polishing/pulleys.. late at night heavy breathing would be muchly appreciated.. bye....

home time for me! i'm going climbing...

i'd be up for that.. got about 70 blank cdrs gathering dust now that i bought the mp3 player for the car so i'll take that offer and any other stuff u feel like burning..

that would be muchly appreciated.. will probably take u up on the offer..

wtf are u sorry for man? nothin said here today that i've read caused any probs?

paul - $100? that for the whole top end cover?

paul - yea, the cusco one.. don't tell me he's already sold it to someone else?! who did ur polishing paul? what sort of $$ are we talking?

heya adrian... turning into a gym junkie hey? niz - christina looks sl*tty - but sometimes thats appealing..

whats that worth to get done paul? can you recommend anyone? (ie - where were urs done?)

dark and darker (wierd couple?!) - already have enough rice.. stickers are bad.. want funky under bonnet stuff.. catch can should be on it's way - speaking of that Adam32? u around mate? wheres my f*&^%kin can? hehehe

hmmm what other funky bits can i buy to put on my engine? hehe....

well could end up with some wierd phonecalls - but i've actually had a stalker before and she was waaay scary.. hehe.. so no - no wierdos..

paul - u written down my number yet? i'll edit the post and take it down..

hehe - so half and half hey niz? paul - don't have anyone specific tuning my car.. a few have tried - but haven't been able to find anyone decent.. was going to try out PSI.. i know he's blown enginers - but some other people had some pretty good reports about him and i should be able to screw him down on price cause of the ITC wiring diagram he got from me which I can imagine will be worth $$ to him in the long run..

no probs paul - it'll be the most action i've had in ages! man that sounds poor! hehe.. but it's true... *sob*

seeya macka...
