Morning mangs,

S2 and that would be grand

Bummer, that means I need to figure out what wire it is :(

Shouldn't be too hard though.

bludging net access off mcd wifi.

Good form

martin, should have a number for you today. hoping to get the 31 on a hoist today at some point as well.

Thanks!

Another glorious morning

Sh*t weather is sh*t.

Boz, you getting the 34 back this week?

+1

Sorry guys. Me having so much free(ish) time is what's causing all this weather, obviously. I mean all the bad weather started about an hour after i finished the work i was doing on the holidays.

This day just won't end.....

Tempted to schedule in a phantom meeting for the afternoon and knock off early.

Does anybody know where I can call for some light guard flaring?

Not game to do it myself. My rolling job was a bit agricultural so not game to do much else.

Sexy Dave rolls guards for beer.

If the flare you need is just pulling it out with the guard roller then he can probably do that for you too. How effective it is will depend on a number of factors though. If you've already munted the guards with a dodgy rolling job it won't help.

Spoke to smash repair guys late last week and I should be picking her up late tomorrow or early Thursday :)

Here's hoping that holds true! And also hoping they kept at least two degrees of camber on the wheels as I requested. Want it closer to three but that may be a bit of overkill.

Hey Guys.

Here's hoping you get your car before the weekend Boz.

As for guard rolling, take a look at what I've been doing. Fitting the Telstar around some 18 x 9.5 +25's. I cut the outer skins and have pulled them from the inners. The door sills needs a major tidy up, but have got a set of hammers and dollies. Will be welding up the rest this weekend. I'll be doing the same with the door skins. The skins have been pulled by about 1".

Before.

Still to work on the door and to tidy up the front guard. The pic of the pulled rear guard makes it look like there is big dent in the flare bit, but it's acutally black paint.

seems weather has something to do with it.

spent most of today under a mack truck and under a 4wd and under a white 2 door thing.(31)

there is a about half a page of changes I need to make to it for it to be 110% legal. until such time it will have instant rego whilst I move it around place to place.

seems this car is similar to the 32. the chassis rails are just as easy to bend. found where it had been jacked wrong and thats one of the points on the RWC paper. thats easily fixed - panel guy can sort it.

joys of old cars :)

Love the rims Scott.

I don't even remotely have the right tools to attempt something like that.

I might give the guy from precision rolling a call and see what he says.

Otherwise may wait a while and go see camerons body works

Why must people camp in the right hand lane doing ten ks under the limit, next to the only other car on the road?

shit blokes.

I loved driving in Europe. The instant someone did that they would have an angry Italian man in a fiat punto two inches from their back bumper, using the horn to morse code M.O.V.E O.V.E.R F.U.C.K.E.R whilst texting his cousin to buy more kappa track suits to wear with his socks and sandals.

looks like raining most of the week too Chris :(

Can't seem to find an S2 wiring diagram Bodo, will have to wing it

all good, im sure we can sort it out, thanks for looking :woot: ....and yes this weather is balls....soo sick of it. i dont think ive had a complete fortnight of work all year yet :(

    • I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..
    • They do. The pale yellow translucent ones from Japan were .... I dunno. Useless? Whiteline and SuperPro are probably fairly similar. There's bound to be a range of different hardnesses amongst the dozens of options on the market. The simple fact is that the pineapples don't get up inside the bush at all. They just sort of exist in the space between the washer/bracket and the subframe's bush outer tube, and...exert a bit of force between them? Or something like that. I'm sure that with enough provocation, they will simply allow one to more wrt the other.
    • I'm not sure they came in different hardnesses? Going from memory only - I had set them up in the balanced setup. I also have poly bushes, so I have both poly bushes and pineapples. This is what my memory tells me at least. I'll have to take a look under there to be sure. The tramp was so bad that I managed to eject/kill a diff bushing, so those I know are stock. The tramp is bad enough that you are 200% sure you are doing severe damage to the car. It's not just chirping or vibration, it feels like you're hitting a speed hump/kerb 10 times a second. The issue has persisted between subframes! (I went from Hicas to non hicas subframe and replaced every bush a few years ago now) so I'm entirely lost. Every arm is factory.
    • Can recommend the Frenchys kit, been using it 2 years now with no issue, very happy with it.  Only thing for me was upgrading the thermo fan but I am super fussy on cooling.   Also interested in electric AC, partly for boot mount to have a clean bay and partly would love the idea of cooling off the car before i get in. The battery setup to do that might be tricky / expensive though.  Found this an interesting watch.    
    • I put Whiteline pineapples in my old 33, they came in a 6 pack of them, got rid of the axle tramp altogether, cheap, quick and easy install,  they were pretty solid units though...???high durometer???? and NVH was increased a fair bit How hard are the ones you installed?
