MLR's 86 not a build thread thread
The Bogan replied to The Bogan's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
Fitted the bushings. Didn't really notice any difference in feel as yet. Maybe when I'm doing some skids the added stiffness in the bushings will show an improvement. There was an additional small amount of NVH from the Whiteline bushing insert, but not enough to worry me. Meh, at least they were cheap. -

Automotive therapy parts arrived. Gearbox mount and support bushings. Why? The OEM bushings have the consistency of marshmallows, this makes the shifter feel so much tighter, tight like a tiger even....plus cheap, and parts were sent to work so they are also my dirty little secret. NVH may increase slightly, but I did simular with the STI and it wasn't a issue. -

Me and the Minister of War and Finances went for a early morning cruise, all was going well till I gave it some juice when I hit a overtaking lane, a car going from 50 to 70 in a 90 zone. As the 86 overtook the plodder, she said, "what have you done to the car and why does it make whooshy noises". The gig was up, so I told her that yeap, I had some work done on the exhaust side and a tune. Pretty sure she was confused with my response, but, not wanting to sound like she didn't know what I was talking about she closed her eyes and went back to snoozing. Winner winner chicken dinner. -

Contemplating a catback or axle back. Car sounds stock, except for turbo spooling and tyres slipping. Conundrums: 1. Pre fab - Invidia? N2? R400?Cold start noise? 2. Shop made - pretty much design what I want with the sound I want. 1. Pro: Would be cheap and I get to install, Con: get what I get given sound/drone wise 2. Con: Would be a bit more expensive vs the massed produced item, Pro: able to test what it sounds during the build, Con: I don't really get to install. 2. Found this axle back pic on the nets, will need to speak to my local exhaust shop, Pro: stock rear pipe and resonator, stock exhaust tips, Con: Cost???, not really any other cons that are blinding obvious. Disclaimer: this is not a performance modification, pipe work can still be the same as now, just need to do something about the mufflers, I'm after just a little more sound. I keep leaning towards shop built....like the pic Hmmmmm -

Hairy leather clad men hanging around with other hairy clad men is acceptable practice in this day and age. It's not my cup of tea but who are we to judge their right to do what they want to do and be what they want to be. -

The Bogan replied to PLYNX's topic in General Automotive Discussion
Wow, I don't go a fortnight without a back roads country drive. Small country cafe's and pie shops are my destinations. Bonus now is all the kids are older, so me , and the Minister of War and Finances, can get some alone time. Alone time for us, to me, means us going for a long cruise and eating pies, much to her dismay. Bloody womens with their romantic wants and needs, lucky for them they can usually guide their will on us using their feminine wiles. Maybe it is her wanting pies after all.....maybe..... Yes dear -
