Ouch!

I'm really looking forward to the Hicas removal solution. Even with a lock bar, I experienced the rear end 'float' at different speeds. Just feels unstable. There's just no way that you can lock something that has a universal joint as a mounting point.

If those bars fit in a supra i can help you guys out, im coming to Deca the end of this week - you could pick them up from me there?

[haw001]

Does anything fit in a supra?

[N1GTR]

Haha good call

Funny enough though i brought back an rb30 in the "boot" of it from the last deca. Wasnt much space left though with all the other crap we picked up along the way. There is literally no backseat left, not that it had much to start with

/\ class pure class /\

Couldnt forget the mexican hat

you are a wildman stevie. very lucky you didn't have to hit the brakes ever. RB30 flying through your cabin towards your head my leave a bit of a lasting impression!

[benm]

That's true.

At the beginning of the year at 5am in my work van I was travelling along the M4 to discover a car sitting stationary in the middle lane that had been in an accident and as I hit the brakes (locked up the tyres) a 10kg box of books the size of a VCR box flew from the very back of my van, bent/broke my trolley and bent the cargo barrier and that was braking from 100->50km/h with my dodgy brakes.

Good times

Apparently in a high speed crash a box of tissues can kill you... nasty way to go, decapitated by tissues.

RE the swaybar, thanks for the offer Steve, and Mark and Duncan, but he's tracked one down locally as he wants to fit it before DECA on the weekend.

Anyone heading from Melbourne to Sydney in the near future who wouldn't mind strapping a bonnet to their roof? It doesn't weigh much, but somehow I think Auspost is going to charge on size not weight. Also have a fibreglass bumper which needs to go if anyone is feeling extra generous. I'd be mighty thankful and would be happy to pony up some tools as way of thanks.

Im looking at a car whilst in Shepp this weekend, its in parts. If i buy it ill have to go back a few days later (or even a fortnight) and bring it home. Ill let you know what happens

[haw001]

Thanks. Let me know if it works out. I won't be in Melb on the weekend, but I can get someone to organise it if you are heading back to Sydney with room.

[N1GTR]

No probs. Im not bringing it back this weekend, it will be during the week or the next weekend cause i have to organise a car trailer

Anyway ill be in touch

[Risking]

Duncan you be ready for a day by December??

Im currently re-locating my engine and will be taking it out for a final bash if your interested/ready by mid month.

[Angus Smart]

Question.....

Does anyone know whats happening at oran park on the 30th of this month.. Sunday? i've herd an open/free day for go karts around the whole circuit?

i think i am going to need the biggest sprocket i can find..

[tacker]

That would be the smallest sprocket lol

[Angus Smart]

That would be the smallest sprocket lol

??

[Duncan]

yeah Brad mid (to late) Dec would be perfect. We sealed the motor last night (old mate of yours, Mike did it for us). should be right to put it back in this weekend or next depending on when I have to work. what event do you have in mind?

Steve....if you need to use a trailer and can bring our stuff back I think we can sort something out

[N1GTR]

Good thinking, yes i will need a trailer.....ill call you after the inspection and tell you the good/bad news and we can go from there

More importantly though, i need somewhere to leave it for a while
