I hate Gillard's speeches. She is such a robot. "I am from the 'great' state on south australia". I love the 'great' australia", yada yada yada.

Labor party are excellent at controlling media. Bungled School building projects, Insulation scheme which resulted in deaths and many injuries, Mining tax, which was just stupid. Where the bloddy hell are the laptops for every school-kid also!

Also, did anybody hear the bombshell question Laurie Oakes dropped on Gillard on Thursday or Friday that she wouldn't answer? Dodgy bish.

and on top of your list Jake, don't forget the 'Cash Handout" fiasco and the 3 boats a week (due to softening of detainee laws) as opposed to 3 a year under the former govt.

Funny how Gillard is prepared to bypass prime ministers of neighbouring countries to try and establish a detention centre on foreign soil when the previous govt has already done that and spent a fortune in Naru (Pacific Island) which was heavily critisized by Gillard herself at the time.....look at the mess she's in now, too much pride to use a centre that she had nothing to do with but slagged it at the time.

Gee, I wonder why she's pushing for an early election.......a bit like her other labour mate (Nicole Cornes) cause the questions are starting to get too hard for her and she wants to get elected before she's found out!

does anyone know of a place like covetry fastners that is in the southern area and open on a sat?

anyone??

just put a fresh set of mirrors on the 32 (a big thanks to Kahli for those) and i wanted to do plugs n oil... but the big thing holding me back is the tensioning bolt for the power steering. i cant find a tensioning bolt that does not come with a powersteering pump thrown in ;)

any help would be much appreciated

No shit pete

I cant defend that stuff at all, cause its a boneheaded policy no matter how u look at it.

Illegal immigration is an Australian problem - we need to deal with it, not palm it off to some other foreign base. Ruddock was the first asshole who tried that, and he did it so that we could avoid scrutiny regarding certain human rights charters we were a signatory body... now it comes across more like a govt with no plans and a bunch of vote grabbing desperation for certain uneducated left wing factions...

And her pushing for an election only weeks before she knifed the incumbent in the back? Bad move. I think the Nicole Cornes comparison is a bit much tho, we know cornesys broad is about as thick as they come, Gillard at least has a bit of a brain - too bad shes not using it.

That said, the liberal opposition are so utterly pathetic at this time I dont think many people (aside from party loyalists) will be voting for them.

Having thought about it, I'm definately voting green. I could care less about the preferential votes, because one way or another you're screwed when it comes to that nonsense, however if the 3rd largest party get another swing at the expense of both the labor and liberal parties then maybe we might see some competition for a change

2 party systems dont work. and being loyal to one party thru an entire lifetime is also pretty myopic. sadly its the nature of our govt, and since the demise of the democrats there really isnt any impartial body to speak of to moderate the more extreme factions on either party.

That said, I think its a shame howard moulded the liberal party around himself rather than spending more time grooming the succession. Abbott is a limp fish, Hockey hasnt got the experience and Turnbull caves in to polls almost as much as labor do.

It will be an interesting election, whomever u follow.

Just listened to all the Mel Gibson tapes. :D

She's a deceitful little bitch but f**k me she gets him going. Some of the language he uses is rather... colorful. It's amazing how she acts so calmly, it's almost like she knows she's being recorded

Some of you guys are on freaking drugs when it comes to wheel prices .... if you reckon you can get 18" x 9.5 Rotas for $1k delivered I absolutely challenge you to show me where .... and even at $1,600 they are a freaking steal .... the best price I could find on a new set of 18" x 9.5 +20 genuine LMGT4s was $6k delivered .... yet my Rota copies (the very same wheels Willalls are running on their Evo 10 that does 1:12 freaking second laps around Mallala - and they have smashed them on ripple strips etc with no ill effects) were just under $1,700 delivered with some tough negotiation. I freaking love the rims - they look porn, and every time I rub up against a kerb (which is often when using the car for work and parking 30 times a day) I don't give a shit .... I would give a shit if I had paid $1,500 PER WHEEL though!

Go for it Penny - if you like them, that is all that matters.

Vision R in Perth sell a range of Rota Wheels for $999 + $100 delivery, so $1099 delivered, a $550 saving over the link Penny posted:

Ive got myself a $10,000 piece of paper (diploma) in this audio shit...to me, it sounds doctored...theres way to much clarity in her voice. His is muffled and unclear, which i think has been done post recording as its not him (just an impersonator) to make it seem more real...

nah, when we record covertly our voice is always clearer than the 3rd party's (muffled voice)....she's obviously hidden a dicataphone on her

She would drive me to do a lot worse me thinks.........I think Mel Gibson displayed good self control IMHO..........can you say "Leach & Gold Digger"!!!

for Josh aka Jap_Star

>>Starlet Injectors<<

no matter how many times you see flame war its still good

[/quote/]

thanks steve. But right Now it's making 115@10psi with injectors on 94%. if I do injectors I'll soon need a pump. Then I'll need a better ecu than the safc 2, then I may as well change turbos.... And after all that it will still be a starlet and be bordering on useless.

Been in one with 155@ the wheels using a td04, f'ing rocket with an LSD, but by then that's another 5-7k. Not really worth it for me.

But who knows, I suppose I've gone this far

Josh, if your injectors are already at 94% @ 10 psi, you do need injectors.

Alternatively turn the boost down or lay off the go pedal cause she's gonna start running lean very soon.

My standard injectors ran at 100% for a couple of years and i never had a problem.

    • LS is a good motor, but it hurts my soul when I see it in a RB. Guess it fixes the oiling issues lol.
    • I'm confused. Does this qualify as "Gregging" or are you somehow avoiding the Gregging?
    • More assembly going on, with all sorts of "bolt right on bro" scenarios going on here. Smartly, PTV clearance was checked. And I say smartly because it turns out that the intake was 0.009" from piston meeting valve. This is 0.23mm. This is very not okay. A fast meeting was facilitated between engine builder in Australia and engine builder in the USA which was actually incredibly helpful and constructive actually, various ideas thrown around to get around this issue including: 1) Retard the cam timing which would have brought the exhaust valve closer to meeting piston (it was 0.065") which was uncomfortably close to begin with, and change the cam profile making it 'laggier' 2) Much larger head gaskets which would reduce compression, but half the point of this was to increase compression. 3) New set of pistons ($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$) 4) All of the above 5) Get ghetto The concept is you get sticky sandpaper and stick it back to a valve, slightly larger than the valve you/I'm using, like say from a LS3/rectangle port head. You now have a very super advanced flycutting tool to modify your pistons in your block. Then you install it in your head, and attach the other end of the head to a drill. Then you just replicate your valve smashing into a piston with your spinning drill.   This is the result. Repeat many times. It is strongly recommended you have some kind of fixed stop when doing this for extremely obvious reasons because if you press too hard then you're well into apocalyptic repercussion land. The minimum clearance on the intake valve is now 0.075" this is still in the "Too close to be really comfortable" and into "It should be fine" land. Supposedly in the real world the clearances will be slightly bigger. Guess this is what happens when people push envelopes for N/A engines instead of adding boost! Time to move onto the new, upgraded, higher ratio roller rockers from Yellaterra, all tapped and threaded with a stronger bolt for better stability. Very nice. Lets see how they fit. For f**ks sake. Time to bring the grinder out for these aftermarket, machined and CNC'd heads. Looks like the new, beefier rocker from YellaTerra has gone from Bolt on part to "Bolt on part". Well, lets see how this bolt on crank scraper and windage tray goes then, shall we? There actually is more clearance than they specify for this thing, but seeing it all move as you check it is terrifying when you see it all so very very very very nearly hit things. But after all, this is what the item is designed to do after all and actually did bolt on perfectly and have enough clearance to everything and some very clear and direct instructions. So +1 to Improved Racing I suppose. As above with the windage tray on. Photo of breaker bar wonkiness for added lols. Next up: Oil pump/front cover/water pump/sump and then it's time to actually install the heads, pushrods, head bolts, valve cover gaskets and such is all there and ready to go. (except the oil pump bolts which were previously longer for more clearance with the previously perfectly installed double row timing chain). There's definitely a sense that someone other than us has been here before and done everything perfectly, or at least considered it and came up with working solutions. Perhaps the previous cam was 6deg advanced to avoid PTV issues with the milled stock heads? In any case when I attempt to sell this stuff the buyers are going to be very directly informed.
    • my catch can is pretty easy to empty but it overflows due to the blowby/crank case pressure etc. max I have drained is ~600ml even with a ~2.3L capacity. So it is not just about having to drain it out its the mess it makes down the firewall and under the car and rear passenger tyre from the overflow oil being blasted by screamer + air in general. Ending up on the ground cleaning the oil up and having oil on your arms when everyone else can chill and watch the other sessions gets old fast
    • Yeah - the secret learned a long time ago is that the RB likes to belch oil out the covers, and/or starve the pump because it drowns the head in oil, because the upflow of crankcase gases from piston blowby comes up through the oil drain holes in the block and prevents the oil from flowing back down. The external vents from sump are about creating an alternative path/much more XS area for gas flow to decrease the gas velocity up through the oil drains and allow the oil to get back down. So, it's not about pressure at all. It is about flows - gas up and oil down - or when it's not working, gas up and oil not going where it is supposed to after it arrives at the top, except out through the cam cover vents. And regardless of whether the catch can is vented to air or vented to the turbo inlet, it must still be vented because a sealed system would blow out the crank seals, or something equally bad.
