Phew - washing, chamoising, scratch repairing/cutting, polishing, waxing then trim detailing your car is absolutely exhausting in this (even mild) heat. Going to wait until it is a bit cooler to do the inside cleaning/vacuuming then she is ready for a final exterior wet coat Saturday 6am.

Mind you, the 35 is now looking a million bucks :D

Is that right hand side standing at front of car or right hand side of radiator?

So they bolt into R31 as well??

I need bigger radiator, now with the FMIC installed the water temps have gone from under the 1/4 mark on the gauge to over half way...

lhs standing from front of car (drivers side) /rhs looking at it from the rear of the radiator

snap, beaten to it. sorry bout that shane, shoulda clarified it. I know you can do a 33 rad into a 31, just modifying the way the top mounts are (33 are horizontal, 31 are vertical, literally bend them 90 degrees and snap it fits)

on another small note, i can go buy my winch tomorrow w00t

who can say no more push recoveries for non-running cars?

Yeah ... prob Murray Bridge!

At this point in time, I don't care. I'll travel to Murray Bridge if I have to for a decent motorsport venue. As long as they can cater for competitors, spectators, volunteers and all vehicles with all the proper infrastructure and services, then I'd travel to use it than a run down, derelict venue.

I can imagine many people will complain if its a fair trek to get to it ... but most of them wouldn't use it anyway. They'll find other excuses to hoon about on the public roads. You could stick the venue right in their neighbourhood, and they still won't use it.

If its modern and has decent infrastructure, the serious people will travel for it. Hell, I'm bored with Mallala right about now. My next track day is at Eastern Creek, then Phillip Island not long after. I'll gladly travel for a decent venue.

okay........ i've been f**k assing around all week organising tyres on the ninja for the meisters. I assumed 245/40 stretched on a 10" wide rim would be suitable enough to be able to get my car in and out of my driveway without the front guards bring rolled, but NO! Fail... Can't get back up my driveway. 1. I wna slap the cvnt that designed our house 2. I wna slap my car for giving me the sh!ts and no 3. lol

Okay, so now I need to get my front guards rolled, I'll get onto wheelworx about that later unfortunatly its going to be boring-spec stockies for the car show this saturday :( I don't even wna enter now thats how over it I am.

end. f**king. rant. ffs. aids.

Cheers anyway man.

Now I have to wait untill the guard gets changed because when the lady reversed into me, the guard was replaced and the indicator hole wasn't lined up properly *not on the painters side* but they didn't check to see if holes were the same they had just assumed they were being a compliance thing, as you would I spose? And now they're going to replace it again and get the indicator holes parrlelle each side to each other so I have to wait for that :( FML

      You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.

      98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.

      95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
