The Bogan

Anything in the plans for next year ? Im up for a timed day at the Creek or Wakie, and Im still trying to get to a Texi. Any hope of another intercub gig. And a Wendsday night walk on at the drags. Thanks, Mark

http://www.ebay.com....=item20cdf0d6d3 A orange $15 Delivered windscreen banner make you stand out. Lots of others to chose from. Matte black looks good for a while but gets dirty looking.

Mine just didnt line up right, about 5mm out from balancer to power steering pulley, slotted out the power steering bracket 5mm and its fine. I had everything balanced but they said there is no need to do the balancer, never had a vibration at all. Though I only rev to 7200 and the limit is set at 7500, but it does rev up real fast once it gets to 4500.

Didnt apple rush out their first phone knowing it had bugs so they could beat others and claim they were the first even though this was not the case. Same as their new one, it now seems. Its good to see that Samsung has taken the lead in world sales, they are cheaper, work better and will talk to a heap of different styles of hardware/software. It seems that the consumer is much smarter than Apple thinks. This is the problem when a usefull tool becomes a fashion item, it stops being usefull. But there will always be the fashion fanboys and girls who just want one, how good is advertising Eh!

Then get wheel alignment....... But yeah, remove seats, remove or lift up parcel tray taking into account that if you have tint on the rear glass you may need to be very carefull to not scratch it with the stock speaker covers. The struts tops are connected by 2 nuts, you will need to undo the front nuts on some electrical components that cover the strut tops first so you can move them out the way to get to the strut tops. Then chock the front wheels and jack up the car, place in the safety stands, remove the wheels and then the lower bolt that holds the strut on, using a rubber mallet tap the strut off whilst holding onto the strut to stop it falling. When replacing seat the top of the struts in the holes, place a jack under the lower part of the shock and slowly jack the shock onto the lower fixing point and tap it into place, do up bolts. I do it this way by myself but if you have a mate handy you can leave one nut on the top of the strut so when you tap the lower point of it doesnt fall out and potentially damage your car, then hold the strut whilst your mate removes the top nut.

The problem is the harmonics of the stock 30 crank during fast changing from low to high revs, a billet crank is supposed to be better and will take more revs without trying to lunch the pump. From what I understand a stock balanced crank will be fine with a Tomei pump up to around 7500rpm on a fast reving motor, over 7500 is possible but you are getting over the happy zone, apparently a billet crank can take alot more abuse, how much I dont know but Ive "heard" of 30's being reved to around 10 with one, fact or fiction, I dont know. I have a 25/30 with a Tomei pump, limited to 7500, I shift at around 7200 though as this keeps me in the sweet torque range and limits the abuse, I donot race for sheep stations so reving beyond that on a stock (albeit balanced) crank is something that does not interest me.

After some calcs I,ve decided that I need Jza80 16 x 8 +50 rims. Hopefully someone local has got some laying around for me. Thanks.

I have about 50mm space between my tyre and shock with about 1 deg of negitive camber using the R32 GTR 16 x 8 +30 rims, when the JZA80 16x9 +50 rims are fitted the camber will be wound out to around 0.5 deg positive camber which will give me a couple of more mm. So in theory fitting the 16 x 9 +50 rims will still give me 20 odd mm clearance, whilst bringing in the rim 7mm which may give me the clearance I"m after.. But now Im thinking of using the 16 x 8 +50 rim as that would give me 30 mm clearnace and bring the rim in 20 mm which would definatley give me the clearance. Bugger

Lotto ticket purchased, If I win the lotto on Tuesday I would buy it and ask if "Gentalman Jim" could run it as the pace car next year at Bathurst yelling "YOU"RE A PACK OF ARSEHOLES" for old times sake. Is that wrong? I do hope it is still out and about the local traps, it would be ashame not to be able to see it at some events, It will ruin fathers day if it isn"t at the Muscle Car Masters.

Email sent, thanks, looking forward to the next nationals

Gday, I"m wondering if the trophy for the show and shine were ever sent out ? 999 AutoShop Best R33 Modified winner – AL.62.VB Thanks, Mark

17 year old car might be good or might be a money pit, is there a work shop in your area that knows Skylines ? Does the car have service history, where was it serviced. Can you take it somewhere to get it checked out, put it on a hoist, do a compression test. It will cost you a bit but its good peice of mind, the owner should only complain if there is problems with the car as it will cost him nothing but a little time. I might still go bang though, or it might not ! Sorry, but thats how it is.

Use a block of wood wrapped in a towel, a heat gun and a rubber mallet, I had mine professionaly done and they cracked the paint, me and a mate done his with the above mentioned equipment and it turned out fine with no cracking. You need to do it in stages though. Save the money for beer.

But the extra muscle adds weight, so a 80 guy with more muscle Vs a 80 with less will usually be at a reach disadvantage, and trust me on this, when I was lifting heavy and had a lot more muscle mass than I do now I found it much harder in regards to endurance training. Someone said a few posts back that you shouldnt mix the disciplines, I partially disagree with that, for overall fitness you need to mix up your training, but if you want to focus on strength it will impact on your cardio, and visa versa. A guy competing in a power lifting comp will not need to worry to much about cardio, where as a marathon runner isn't going to want any unwanted weight on his bones. Me, I'm a firm believer in all styles of training from cardio to the big 3, with lots of stretching and yoga. All in all do what is needed for your chosen sport and/or your occupation.

If you have, I want. Only straight stock rims, slight rash is OK, I dont need the center caps but I will need the wheel nuts.. Pick up in Sydney region only as I will inspect prior to purchase. PM me with price.. Thanks, Mark Like this

Does anyone know if JZA80 turbo rims, 16x9 +50 offset will fit on the back of a R33 GTST. I need some 16 x 9 rims for drag duties. I was using R32 GTR 16 x 9 +30 with 255/50 16 Mickey T"s, but found that I needed too much height in the rear for the tyres to clear when launching. Or any other 16 x 9 rims that will tuck in with the tyre setup. Thanks
