  1. Tell us about the 2nd shot (white FD) - Camera set up, lens, processing... Superb quality images.
  2. Yep, Newy is full of wankers. Myself not included because i'm from Lake Macquarie.
  3. Doofy i'll probably drag an esky along with beers. *runs off and hides*
  4. Just watch you don't stuff up with the resistance on the blinkers. LED's have less resistance than Halogen globes so you might find if you stick a pair of LED globes in the blinkers they'll start blinking a lot faster than normal. This might not apply to the M35 but it's something to think about.
  5. Does it struggle to reach the higher RPM and when it does get there does it finds a few extra legs?
  6. feck...*runs off to send off email*
  7. Possibly try Just Jap or Slide here in SAU for splitfire coilpacks. SAFC fit and tune - ring around.
  8. Ahh the old Brycey wagon, good to see it's still in top shelf condition. Show us your towbar set up!
  9. Tis sound deadening. Pull it out, Chris!
  10. Start by getting a set of Splitfire coilpacks - these will eliminate the spark breakdown you *might* be getting. Also if you bought new spark plugs what gap were they set to? Higher boost usually calls for a narrower spark plug gap of 0.8mm. If the car still feels like it's pushing against the glass wall then it'll be the ECU retarding the timing. an S-AFC should fix that for you. Your SMIC is probably starting to reach its limit too if you're going higher in the boost range. I had the same problem and I traced it back to dodgey coil packs but I was still getting R&R at high boost.
  11. Very good Mr Hill.
  12. You won't make it into King St Maccas if you lower yours any further!
  13. Remove cat converter.
  14. I'm there for spectating and shooting.
  15. It doesn't matter if you get UCC in the cylinders, it's designed to burn off if it gets into the combustion chambers - you'll find that the car will blow a shitload of white smoke for about 10secs but it'll clear up after.
  16. I wonder if you could spray some upper cylinder cleaner in there and use a toothbrush to clean them out? Takers?
  17. 2nd gear, high RPM and give me a video camera.
  18. Rock on down to Supercheap or Bursons and get a stud extractor kit!
  19. I read somewhere it's a 3 day turn around too so factor that in. This doesn't include putting the turbo back on the car btw. When I did the dump pipe on my stag it was easy enough but some of the studs were a bit tough to do, Also my turbo had half a mil of play so 66yo yours sounds normal for the KM's you've done. I would suggest looking into a hi-flow in the near future though before your hairdryer grenades itself. P.S. YES that stupid f*cking c*nt engineer that designed that f*cking heat shield should've been taken out and shot!
  20. Last time it was 3pm till 10 or 11pm - Doof will clarify this at a later date.
  21. For those umming and ahhing about cheap DVD headunits, there are some good ones out there. This is an Eonon headunit I got off eBay, cost me $220 landed and it never faulted while I had it in the car.

    Hey

    Whereabouts in NSW are you Moei? I'm based in Lake Macquaire about 45mins south of Newcastle so if you're interested I can shoot in Newcastle, Central Coast or Northern Sydney.
  23. Ohh we've got another HDR boffin in the house! V. nice!
  24. Fixed.
