spotted ya again brad :) thursday morning. i was actually in my liner this time...not a beetle or on foot

Thought that was you. Waved but was a little late lol. Were you in the beetle the other morning, think friday? (All days all the same at the moment lol)

just wondering were would be a good place to get my 25 rebuilt with forged internals for say up to around 600 HP, i have asked this question before but didn't really get to much of an answer, also, what kind of price range would i be looking at?

no idea to be honest buddy. a rebuild is not on my mind yet......well hopefully :whistling:

but i hear Dan down at ERD does some mighty fine work

Good turnout last night ;)

what happened last night?? sry Ive been drunk and merry since bout midday Friday....far too much booze

so. i got a call from option one today. the coil overs are in. but they cant fit them till next Tuesday. so i think im gonna do it myself, can anyone recommend somewhere local to get the alignment done that will do a good job and knows skyrines??

*i normally go to Caboolture steering, who always does a good job, but im not sure hes used to setting up coilovers and the likes (regarding height ect)

Peter can do them at RPM. What type of coilovers do you have man? With pete's racing history and street knowledge I'm sure he'll get it sorted dude.

does anyone go to harry's anymore?

Not really only for lunch every now and again, Too many wankers that attract police attention.

A few of the boys were at my place looking at stereo gear and such.

Grats on coilovers

+1 for peter at RPM

same as what clint got in his 34. some BC V1's the nice soft girly street ones :P

read up on it today.....they seem very easy to fit. three bolts per corner and a trolley jack.

RPM is only round the corner from me. so getting there for the alignment wont be too hard at all. only issue is i need it done this week as i want them in and sorted for happy laps. i'll def be having a late night tomorrow to install them. and hope pete has some time for me this week, will cal him tomorrow.

    • To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear   
    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
