Hmm, can't seem to find any place that sells holesaw kits for my intercooler piping. Been to Bunnings, Autobarn, Repco, Supercheap, and many others. Who the hell sells such a thing that I consider a simple tool? Might just do it the traditional way and mark out the circle using a suitable cup size and drill out the circumference!

Fitting new piping kit this weekend :(

you should notice more response. when i swapped over from the normal intercooler piping (under the washer) to the return flow one, i noticed more lag.

considering swapping back, but dont wanna cop a defect.

One of my good friends is involved with the adult entertainment industry. I know how much the pay rate is. OH. MY. GOD.

Haha the pay isn't too bad. I've got a few girl mates who work at various places around Australia and do those 'tours' of the places.

They're very interesting people to say the least... but they're all incredibly f**ked up.

Flintware is another joint you could try......Steve, who is Marco Elbe's pit crew for the black '57 Keith Black Chev works there.

For what I used to earn (full time) in 2.5 months, she could get in 1 day lol

Well just got home from work so i decided to go and spend $1300 on the net.

CP Pistons: Check

Free MLS HG: Check (thrown in with the pistons)

Spool Rods: Check

ARP Head and main studs: Check, Picked up today from outlaws

ACL bearings: Check, Picked up today from outlaws

So the pistons are on their way from the states and the rest will be here by next week.

But the good thing about building a 4 cylinder engine, rebuild including parts and machining $2500. With another $500 to spend on the head (but been quoted $370 for the head work).

P.S. How good is Hoegaarden

Got to Blackwood tyre power this morning to get my tyres fitted to my new wheels and they tell me that only the rears had come in and that the fronts are still in a container somewhere in customs. Nice if they had let me know. So they are gona put secondhand ones on the fronts, and I'll have to make it back here next week to get them swapped over when they come in

      R32 GTS/GTST non driven wheel speed

      By Looney_Head · Posted

      Hi People, has anyone come up with a way of getting non-driven wheel speed on a R32 Gts/gtst? from what i've seen the RWD R32 didn't look to come with ABS, if they did i can't find a rwd ABS front knuckle anywhere. is it a case of putting a S14/R33 front knuckle on and then modifying the ASB ring to suit a ECU input frequency limit? or have people managed to get a hall sensor onto the back of the hub and pick up the wheel studs?   i've searched but there isn't anything that I could find.

      I was thinking about a hoist, the ceiling is very high, but half the garage has a half-height loft for storage and I dont think I'll even be able to jack the X5 up under it as it almost hits me in my 6'5" elevated head when i walk in there. And, yeah nah, maybe if I can convince Bec to let me get another car she'd be open to having as many as we can fit (cough @Duncan) but until that time you better steer clear! 🤣

      ['96 r33 GTST] Need some help gauging how much I should pay for a CD009 transmission kit.

      By ggub · Posted

      For the sake of cost comparison, I’m currently embarking on putting a new 5 speed into my R33. I imported a new RB25DET gearbox from Japan, which was about AU$3.3k delivered to my door. It was a very slow process (~2 months) and I got extremely lucky with the exchange rate. The twin plate clutch I bought was about AU$1.8k. I've also had to buy all the additional parts required to convert the gearbox from a pull type clutch to a push type clutch. Total cost is about AU$5.5k, so GTSBoy is pretty close to the money.

      Yeah, The Japanese had/have a problem with doing crap like that to undeserving shitboxen.

      I run a CD009. See my DIY for info on what I spent. 6800$ isn't cheap, but it's not terrible either.   Keep in mind, you'll still need the following parts. - Shifter relocation kit - Trans Mount - Driveshaft - Slave Cylinder - Rear final drive (This doesn't have to be done right away.) - Some new way to detect speed.
