Got my car back together with stock exhaust manifold on. Noise is gone and it goes like the clappers again, so I'm calling it fixed (y) :)

Wound the boost up to 12 PSI :)

Now just got to chase up the seller about this non NEO head

Nice

now I know 2 people with rotisseries

is the other persons better then mine, cause crap wish i could of borrowed. lol mines fully backyard arc welder styles. its not much to look at but should work. :blink:

keen to come look at a 4 door chassis with me today? its at logan, need to to repair my car and tristans :D

Edited by 32_Dave

is that tubing thick enough to hold the weight of the car without warping? i can't see how thick it is from those pics. Also I'm assuming you got the pivoting points exactly the same height from the ground and also left enough clearance for half a car to pass under the pivot?

its old veranda railings about 4mm thick. 50 OD. its heavy shit. there both same height, and yes there car will rotate, its abit shorter then cars width, because when u rotate the diam gets smaller or some shit. i fail at maths. buy it'll work. its f**king high even with the chassis on the trailer its gotta go up 500-1000mm. Should work. it also has a steel tube that links the two stands, allowing no movement. got allt he ideas from this site. http://www.mts.net/~hpokrant/Restoration_T...serie/Plans.htm

also we went to Haci's and had EPIC kebabs the way they're supposed to be made. Tonight is a duck meet with some of the local SAU boys (like you guys, but from Melbourne).

    • Getting Dangerously close to being ready to go back in the car. Rockers in with clearance castings now (and a quick check with the USA for the torque settings for the larger custom bolts) Covers and ported FAST Manifold sitting on there. Not fully tightened down as there's some clearancing required for the water pump with the earlier LS1 water pump styles. Example of the clearancing needing to be done: The body has to be ground a little but I'm struggling finding an actual piece of it. The later variant of water pump resolves the issue as the manifold was designed around it. It only came on the VZ LS1 in Australia, it got a different pulley for Gen4 motors. (it also costs $450... vs... $0).

    • Doing some height adjustment on front suspension on a v35 and noticed this. The passenger side looks correct. So wondering what's happened to the drivers side?
    • Oh...I have the electric mirrors as well iirc ...they're in the same state as just about every other R31 door mirrors, with the 3 plastic screw towers broken/cracked in the plastic molding. All the interior is 'dry', so the mirror switches etc likely all work fine. Some pics below of the trimmer pieces ~ looks to me like previous owner, painted chrome finished trims with black paint ...ergo, the chrome underneath is likely a-ok... ...starts to look yukky posting stuff like this, how much did it cost in fuel on your last sortie up this way?...me just thinking aloud, borrow someone else's 4cyl to cut costs, come do your own pick'n'pull like before to save me some bother...hehe.. but whatever, I'll just earmark bits I know you want, because the way this is all panning out, I'll be able to retire the R31 from daily duty at long last, replacing it with a Subaru wagon I'm lining up in the wings...ergo, my attitude towards the donor pinny shell is starting to wane a bit, and I'm more than happy to help you out there... Like you say though, no rush...and I'll guarantee we won't be moving too far from this locale at any rate 😎
    • Cool, I’m just down Sydney today. Not much time to get online.
