Thought after last nights meeting and mentioned to Luke, both of us are interested. Between us, he is a qualified mechanic with access to workshop/hoist and I should be able to do the admin stuff and put a decent review together from his dot points. :)

Ok I'll have some spare time the next week so I will be creating a new section of the forum.

Anyone that has expressed interest thus far will be given access to this section (it will be private).

Then we can start discussions with the aim to launch sometime in Q1 2012 :)

Oh, and you guys will all get a cute like "Review Team" bar under your names :thumbsup:

Ash,

I'm keen.

Happy to do some reviews.

Unfortunately I can only comment on 'upgrades' to an M35 Stagea and a Datsun 1600 which I am about to upgrade a few engine components.

I can comment on generic oil/intercooers/seat belts/ Race seats/ engine air-fuel meters etc. and generic components which can be used on either etc.

Let me know if you want some engineering input.

I can comment on reviews and if the component/modification may affect whether the car requires an engineering cert (to remain legal in Victoria. Other states I have NFI!)

I can also comment if the review requires more testing/ statistical data, or more appropriate information to justify certain claims.

I bought some off the shelf chassis stiffening to play and test with during this summer break. I also have some other simple "modifications" to do which aren't so much products but really things to do with your car.

I am a Experimental Physics student so understand high quality quantifiable data - my R33 GTS-T is my experiment. I was planning measure quantifiable data when doing all my modifications over the summer anyway and I would very much enjoy being able share that knowledge with the public.

Will you enable LaTeX support in this section of the forum? :thumbsup:

:cheers:

The entirely new Review Section (it's a new forum) is live for those who've shot some interest in area's of this etc.

I'll let you boys work out where it is... If you can't work it out then I am deeply worried haha :nyaanyaa:

Of course - could always do with more people. If you want in, let us know :thumbsup:

    • find it funny everyone claims different fuel chains, do different things with their fuel blah blah blah. We don't have that many fuel terminals in Australia. The fuel tanker trucks drive into the terminal, fill up, and drive directly to the service station and dump out. The majority of fuel you get, is coming out of the same terminals. The variation is actually at the individual service stations and how good their tanks are, as well as how much turn over they actually have. Older fuel stations, that haven't had their tanks replaced are going to end up with the worst fuel. Also a lot of older stations have shit design, and shit maintenance, and end up with more water absorption into the tank. This is when you then get a bad batch of fuel. Other shit things happen, like tanker drivers have a f**k up, and starting to unload the wrong compartment on their truck into the wrong tank. 
    • This one?? In other news: I cannot tell the difference between my red MX5 with the silver grey hard top......... and the Ferrari 599XX EVO, they might as well be twins, well.......apart from the big wang hanging off the back of the Ferrari...🤔🤣, without the wing they are identical

    • I think you'll find we're confused about what you were trying to do and how you were doing it. I would have thought that block rigidity was something you measured while loading the block in beam or in torsion, and that you would do so before and after grout filling, to see if putting material in there created a "composite" construction with the expected rigidity increase. Notwithstanding that the true function of grout is less about gross rigidity than local (ie preventing bore deflection/splitting and tying the bores to the main bearing locations a little better, etc etc). It is nearly impossible to follow your description of what you've done without closing ones eyes and making "aliens" hand shapes in front of oneself to try to follow the manipulations you've made. It's still unclear to me what you were trying to prove.
