Actually, wife's commodore has extractors, that gets alot hotter than the skyline.

I found that my underbonnet temps started skyrocketting when I had a dump put on, but was fine after I wrapped it - so new one is getting coated before it goes on - have been told that the stuff is so good you can acutally touch the pipe without getting burnt.

I'm getting all the work done through Evan (PSI) cant remember the name of the coating place, sorry, but will find out if you want?

the commodore was cheap, and in very good mech condition with heaps of suspension mods, parts are cheap and they are easy to work on, so perfect for the wife to thrash around in. Also I needed a car in emergency, as her previous ride was stolen, and the insurance company refused to pay out because she hadnt been insured for a full year and on pay by month (long story, they will be going to court soon). I would have much preffered a 4 door skyline, any year, but the funds just wouldnt stretch:(

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
