Well this last week has seen the timing belt and fluids done. I got some new tyres fitted to my new rims today and so I fitted them up after getting an alignment with my other rims. The Guys there were certain that they wouldn't fit, so they wouldn't fit them to the car, then they rattle on one of the wheel nuts and cross threaded it....grrr.

Here's some pics. 235/40/18 on AME Shallen MX 18 x 8.5 +22 fronts, and 235/40/18 on 18 x 9.5 +22 rears. Tein Super low down Style Master's and standard suspension. Rear guards not rolled as there is no need to.

finally got the new rims painted and new tires, installed the bc coilovers and the car is mobile again, need to do a engine flush, new oil, oil filter and install the turbotech boost controller.

the rims came out a totally different colour to what i was expectimg but still look very nice.

How low have you got yours sitting and are you using adjustable camber arms. Mine looks about the same hight but looks to have more camber on the wheels and i am not

using adjustable.

I will post some pic up next week

Hi Andrew. I'm using Tein adjustables with stock camber/toe/traction arms. The rear is sitting at 325mm and the front is sitting at 340mm from guard to rim centre.

Camber is a bit crazy, 3.5degrees in the rear and 2.5 in the front. Need to pull a little camber out me thinks...

Today I did 11ty-billion laps of Eastern Creek in my LOLvo at Superlap. Unfortunately, none of those laps were ON the track, but running around between all the different areas for viewing different sections of the track throughout the day.

My factory battery died while my mrs was using the Stagea yesterday. $200 later saw an Optima battery replacing it. Battery World in Brisbane has them at half the RRP of $400.

Damn, I was going to buy one but I was quoted $380. Might have to try battery world down here. Which size did you get?

Optima Part Number 8070-167, Model No 51. Hope your Battery World has the promo going & has one in stock.

I have a mono block amp running my sub & 4 ch amp running my speakers. The Optima battery I bought has 500 CCA, should be strong enough to run my stereo. :D

Nothing as exciting as you guys, but I fitted a Sped.Dock (iPhone integration) into my M35.

Works great!

So it worked alright with the radio you have on your car? Are you able to play video?

I get mine this week.

G`day All ,

Will fit up swaybar ,need to fit new Fuel Pump,Cheer`s Chuckie

Coming along nicely, Charlie!

Fitted R34 GT-T seats in the stag. t was a bit of a PITA but it's all in there now and they look/feel great.

What in the way of modifications did you need to do to make them fit?

    • OK. But what about parts of the block that, when assembled, were twisted into a position that pushed into the void space, which, when disassembled, then released that force and opened back up, thus putting the grout into tension? Would effectively just pull the cast iron off the grout at the interface, leaving a tiny void and benefitting not much at all. Swings, and roundabouts. It's like putting something tiny into the fleshlight and finding out you needed a smaller one, to perhaps follow your area of expertise.
    • Nah. You buy a kit that has shorter tubes.
    • I didnt present too many conclusions because I wanted your opinions and feedback based on your own experiences. I don't know the exact material, but it is similar to concrete and therfor only has valuable strength in compression. The forces on the set material once the head is removed would mostly be in compression since the grout wants to retain its shape and the block wants to return to its relaxed state since it's still within the elastic region. The grout would theoretically make the block more rigid. The exact amount would take a better setup on my end. Thought experiment: Instead of aliens, twist your favorite fleshlite. Now fill it with grout and allow it to sit for a week. Now try to twist it again. Observe what you see. Now get your other one and blow into it. Observe what you see. Now put it into a can and fill the space between your fleshlite and the can. After it sets blow into it. Less movement in torsion and less expansion i hope.
