  1. Well it wasn't the pedals like I thought (honestly was hoping it was them just to have that nightmare over) but it was the Wilwoods. Not sure what the go was there considering my kit was ment to be on back order yet I got it at the same time as you guys? Now it wasn't the whole kit however I think they are sending them in seperate packages like this for two reasons, due to the weight of the kits and also to seperate the order due to customs. I thought they would just dodgy up the invoices a lot more but instead this is probably the better way for every one. One box contained just the brake rotor and the hat. The hat is extremely light, lighter than I actually thought it would be. I will weigh all the components of the Wilwood kit and factory setup to compare weights when I go to install them. The rotor itself is very chunky! Next box was the two calipers, brake pads, lines and bolts. No idea why they sent the lines, most likely a mistake. The calipers are very light and look gorgeous. I also test fitted the Hel lines into them and they fit! Brake pads are huge, a lot thicker than the EBC Red Stuff pads I have on the factory calipers at the moment. So there you go Hopefully the other rotor and caliper adaptors arrive soon. Let me know when you guys get your other parts.
  2. Oh sorry you are right. He said "the one in the cam gear" and obviously there is no semi circle in the cam gear so I assumed he ment inside the CAS. But yeah he ment the one in the camshaft. However, if the bracket for the CAS has broken there would be a high chance that the CAS it self is f**ked or on it's way to being.
  3. Holy crap I always thought your was the VSII hood it looked that stock, good job Terry! Man maybe I will do this after all. How much were they through that QLD dude? These were the ones that I was thinking about to use: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Universal-Carbon-Fibre-Naca-Ducts-x2-/270726957121?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3f08958841
  4. Hahahaha. Should hit up PSI Parts to get some Z tune style ones made....
  5. Ahh crap didn't realise it was a hub dyno. Ok that explains a lot.
  6. Yep you are talking about the CAS. You will need a replacement CAS, no other way to fix it. Your ECU will have no idea on which cylinder to fire and your timing will be all over the place. DO NOT DRIVE THE CAR.
  7. No way would it be giving you 60rwkw. Did they tell you that? As has been said, ground the solenoid manually and do a dyno run and compare the graphs. Will give you an exact comparison. Window switch will be your best bet. Awesome power figure with the E85 one day. So jeleous of you bastards down south for being able to get it.
  8. Holy mother of god...
  9. Haha sweet. It's like a jigsaw!
  10. They are a M12 x 1.25
  11. Hahaha ok. Was hoping you got more today. Actually the more I think about it, perhaps mine isn't the Wilwood brakes but the V Spec II pedals because it doesn't make sense that I would get mine at the same time as you guys when yours got sent prior to my kit even being ready (remember one kit was on back order).... Hmmm the plot thickens...
  12. Awesome! Both cars look amazing! Can't wait to buy the issue. Matt it doesn't matter how many times I see a photo of your car, it always blows me away.
  13. DO it! Yeah i've been thinking of doing a similar thing. Just getting a brand new set to put on the car and then using my old set to play around with.
  14. Ok sweet. Rob what other Townsville people can we invite? (Don't say Marty or I will slap you lol).
  15. Hahahaha probably. Have you gotten anything yet?
  16. Yep definetely man! Would love to have a good look at one up close. Awesome dude, looking forward to seeing your car, and the rims! Me and Rob are staying at this place: http://www.marinashores-whitsundays.com/At_Marina_Shores_Home.html The other place we originally were looking at ended up being booked out. Perhaps call this same place and see what is available. Hit up some of the other guys to share a room or something. Or just fucking crash at our place on the couch or something lol.
  17. Brake lines?! WTF. I told him we didn't need brake lines because we got the Hel ones. EDIT: Just found two postage pick up slips in the mail box! So maybe my brakes arrived today aswell. I wonder what parts I got lol.
  18. Nice! Did you just get the calipers? So we have one rotor and two calipers between two people, AWESOME! One more person and we will have a full kit
  19. Yep clean and tidy looks a hell of a lot better than every single part painted in a mixture of bright colours.
  20. A can of spray paint and an engine bay can lead to hideous results in the wrong hands. Also "the engine block" is something completely different to camshaft covers (which is what you are most likely talking about). Yes every one has done something similar. Perhaps look here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/289753-put-up-you-engine-bay-pics/page__st__120__p__5563239__hl__engine+bay__fromsearch__1#entry5563239 Using search goes a long way on these forums.
