The first one is a turbo the second one isn't. Are they both OK for P a plate driver or are they classified as a high powered vechile? :huh: cheers

Ok, thanks alot guys.

Oh, I'm having trouble finding how much klw/hp this car has.hmm.

Not much trouble.

They go by stock figures only.

If your in victoria, the 34 is illegal. If you in nsw, the 34 is illegal.

I think in Vic we go by kw / tonne, something like 130 125kw or there abouts untill the new laws applies in July.

(Just searched, it is 125kw per tonne)

Does it count if you have a couple of sandbags in the boot? :rant:

Just put some weights in the boot so it just works out!

(Nah, I think they go by redbook...but then redbook doesn't tell you what the weight of the car is?)

They go by the factory quoted power figure and weight.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
