I have another 33 clutch to do tomorrow, an auto in a camry and a timing belt on an astra but I reckon I could squeeze in another one if you like.

Plus I'll be out too if you're out. I can't get a helmet from anywhere. My mate is not contactable so I was hoping that maybe I could borrow yours.

Anyone else willing to lend a helmet?

You're welcome to mine... and you've seen how boofy my head is too :P

Only problem is that you'll have to pick it up from Toowong, as I'm working late tonight and I have the car so Karen can't drop it out :ermm: If that's OK and/or you can't get hold of another one, you're welcome to use mine.

lights in the dashboard area (speedo, rpm, etc) aren't working.

looks as though i wont be going until these are fixed.

All dash lights are out? From memory they're on the same fuse as your taillights, check that, it might be a nice easy fix :P

you dont need dash lights to race at willowbank.

check your fuses and your dimmer, occasionally those things die simply cause compliance mobs use cheap shit.

though if your driving a fair way you may want to follow someone back into town, just in case there are any friendly constabulary patroling.(and most of the time there is at the very least a speed camera just past the Flinders View/Ripley overpass)

Nobody wants to loose double demerits.(or was that just for easter period?)

Timeslips 4 of my best but only 1 is OK really.

Practice OH practice.

Took my car to tuner yesterday and it was running sweet, so its all down to technique now.

By the way Hardcore have changed management now, Pete still has the dyno but it's a seperate business now and is going by the name of

"protorque" performance tuning, I recommend him highly,

some of the old staff are still there but all the salesmen are new and have no record of any previous work, so if you have any of those type of quetions talk to Pete and he may be able to help.0438876649

Nice work terry. I was almost certain I was going to pass you on the line lol. I was going about 30k's faster by that point. Bit disappointed in my result but I'm talking with my turbo supplier and hopefully I can have the smaller A/R housing donated in the name of research....rofl. Should shave a second and a half off my time.

      The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change

      Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down.

      The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
