Unless you have the supporting mods, ie aftermarket, tuneable ECU, then the RR FPR won't work. It will simply overfuel the engine when on boost. And the more boost, the more overfuelled it will be.

You need to screw the adjusting platform UP to raise the ride height. The ride height is usually measured from the centre of the wheel to the centre of the wheel arch. Not sure of the exact figure required, but a search should uncover it. Basically, Australia-wide, the limit for ground clearance is 100mm, but I'm not sure how the exhaust affects the measurement. Check on the QLD Transport web site.

I'm about to start a Lawn & Garden maintenance business, and I'm going to need a taxation accountant to keep K. Rudd happy. Any members here are taxation accountant, or know of a good, reliable one. Cheers

That would be because they are still using pushrods to activate the camshafts, rather than multi-valves and twin OH camshafts.It's about time GM brought their technology into the latter part of the 20th century, before they even consider the 21st century.

I would have expected Harley Davidsons to easily out-noise anything else on the roads.

Could be interested. Does it have a towbar? What engine is in it? Could it tow a 1.5T trailer?

Why not keep the engine "in-house", ie a Nissan engine - VH41 or VH45, far superior to the horrible lump of US cast iron.

That won't necessarily work. Best way is to roll the car back and forward, at least one full wheel revolution.

Nothing new. Cancelled the e-Tag, just in case the car was heading east (it hasn't so far).Don't expect police to be breaking a sweat over it either. After all, there are "hoons" out there to be harrassed.

Have you done a diagnostic on the climate control system?

Belching black smoke usually means that part of the intercooler system has popped a connection. Check every connection, from the AFM to the throttle body, very carefully.

Does it drive ok when the TPS is connected, just has a problem idling? Or is it just totally undriveable no matter what you do?

Then it's probably too low. It probably sets up +ve camber, which only becomes more +ve as you transfer weight onto that corner. And +ve camber is real good for understeer.

All it is is a set of transistors. If you know how to test transistors (I don't), then you stand a chance.

Do you have power (+12V) at the injectors? Do you have power to the coils? Is the CAS hooked up and working correctly? Does the fuel pump prime when you switch to ON? Are the fuel hoses on the right way round?

No problem. And it's Greg.

The state government does tax water - through all the authorities that send you a bill each quarter for supply of water to homes, and a sewerage and stormwater discharge cost. Where is the "green power" going to come from? I doubt there is enough available to power all the current domestic consumers who have been sucked in to paying a premium for "green power". So how is there going to be an excess for the desal plant to run? And how can they guarantee that every little electron supplied has actually come from a "green" source? I figure you could give every house in Melbourne a 2 or 3 thousand litre tank. Might cost the same as the desal plant, but that's where it ends - no ongoing running costs, no ongoing maintenance costs, no ongoing carbon footprint. The average Melbourne house could harvest more than 100k litres each year. Water your garden to your heart's content. Flush the toilet to your heart's content with water harvested from the rain falling on the roof. Why can't they build a pipeline from N Qld, or even the Ord River in WA? (They built the Snowy Mtns scheme). Did you know that more water than is in Sydney Harbour flows out of the Ord River dam EVERY DAY. Fresh water going to waste! Politicians are forever saying what CAN'T be done, but have very little to say about what CAN be done.

In your OTHER thread, it seemed to be all connected.Oh well then, PM me your address and I'll come to you.

It should still be driveable - bring it round to my place (PM me for address) and I'll help out.

How about "skits" = "skids"?NFI what "swining" is about. WTF has happened to the english language?

Maybe the RH caliper pistons are siezed, and are not working / wearing as much.

Standard Supercrap screw-type clamps, like I suggested in the first place.And you realise that the strut bar has a tensioner setup in it? You just need to undo the lock nut, and the threaded piece will screw in and take the tension off the strut bar. Which "westside" are you from?

Have you tried assembling them down near the other rubber joiner, then moving them into position?

Take it back and get them to put it right!

Go down to SuperCrap and by some suitable screw-type clamps.
