Steve, I'm guessing they're 1 watt or less?

Luke Heslo, use the principle of $$$ vs Performance Gained to work out how far you should go........sometimes you can spend $1000 for only 5kw of power more.

Very true, Law of Diminishing Returns :D

Spot on guys, was speaking to Dave (scandyflick) about this earlier and we both came to the same conclusion. You can keep going and going and going but what you get in return may be very little.

Well I should probably go to bed after another night of watching the World Cup.

I was disappointed when I went for a walk at 6am that the sun still hadn't come up. I didn't see it yesterday and probably won't see it again today.

not sure Pete just posted em for a cheap option for people that done have a set, i have a 1w motorola talkabout piece of crap it works 7km line of sight

I got a 5 watt Feidaxin from ebay for $80.... plenty of good chinese CB's that have loads of power and a bunch of features. I bought mine with a USB programming cable so I can do fun stuff with repeaters and the like

able to talk to my mate in Henley Beach and I'm near Hampstead Gardens so thats quite a way - and thats without upgrading the antennae

-D

hey Nigel, i was just looking into something similar (on a much smaller scale though, just the wifi network in my house between the media box and my media server needs a boost)

i'll dig up the websites i have found in a moment

cheers. I found one on Egay, but reluctant to buy from hong kong with no warranty, and poor item description.

I'll be setting up a 1.2km wifi VPN, and need something BIG.

Ps: when I upgrade, you are more than welcome to have my old 11dB antennas to upgrade your wifi :)

win!

i'll have your babies in return

31 is alive again, limiter check, all good.

just the VS commo rear callipers to be put on and splice into break lines for hydro and its done :)

after i pick it up, that will make it over 10k spent so far.

and its just a 31.... so much for budget slider.

total would be half that if i did as much i could myself.

I've sold my car so skids for me soon too :)

My first time out there is going to be so nerve racking, once I get passed that first initial point and get some confidence it'll be good fun

I'd much rather my first time actually out there be a private day rather then spectators everywhere :D

tbh man, i was more nervous actually driving out to lala, coz i had time to think about it.

when your there, getting the car ready, signing in etc etc, time flys and before you know it,

your on the track and excited more than scared..

what are you buying?

    • The max they would go for me is 50.
    • That cannot have been a fun set of drilling. The stock "baffle" looks identical to rb26, I just cut fuel cell foam to fit the full length under the baffle.
    • I understand your sarcastic exasperation. But to be fair - the baffles do indeed fit OEM cam covers. They did omit to say that you need to do a bunch of stuff. But they do fit them.
    • Got started on the modification to make these splash plates fit over the long weekend. First the surprisingly time consuming task of swapping all the cam cap bolts to Tomei cam cap studs. I did the method of removing one bolt at a time, applying loctite to the stud, double nutting to torque as the manual described. Then carefully unlocking the nuts without disrupting the torque of the stud (and going back to re-torque a few times when it slipped). Finally applying the nut and torquing to spec. Repeat x28 Next up I went about removing the stock cam cover baffle so I could ensure it was fully clean after drilling for stud clearance.  As the blind rivets holding the baffle on were domed I used a punch to mark the center then used 4mm drill bit to carefully drill out the rivet without going too far part the baffle. As seen in other thread here is what is inside the stock baffles I decided on M4x6mm bolts to bolt the baffle plate back on with. I used a 3.3mm drill bit with some tape to mark the depth at ~8mm. Next was to tap the threads using a cheap bunnings kit M4x0.7. With the baffle removed I also drilled out the spot welds holding in the baffle plate oil returns. Unsure whether this was the best option or if I should have cut holes in the Hypertune splash plates to allow the oil drains to still function... time will tell. I then removed the the Hypertune splash plates so I could rest the cam cover on top and use a dab of grease to mark where the studs impacted the oem cam cover baffle. The most obvious spot was on the hump from the stock mesh is held. Using this hole as an anchor I bolted the oem baffle plate back into the cam cover and lined up the Hypertune splash plate. Marked the rest of the holes for the studs and drill those out too. Total 32 holes drilled and 12 threads tapped on the passenger side cam cover alone for this bolt on part that totally clears all OEM cam covers.. Drivers side next as well as some E85 safe fuel foam to fill the space behind the behind cam cover baffle plates. oh and some lock nuts for the splash plates of course.
