Hit me up with his details. Caught the tailored bug. $20 for tailored shirts > $80 local generic shirts

Will let you know when he's in town, I don't even have his details...secret squirrel Malay-Indian stuff.

cufflinks are the best

i have so many different ones, more than i have shirts even

Yeah you can get some pretty mint ones dude, but putting them on as you're rushing for work isn't the most ideal situations lol.

I'll believe it when I see it...they've been saying that for years...it's almost a today tonight story. Got a feeling it'll be a "you jump in the pool first" occasion, sif one company will leave another with the whole large sedan market.

If one car manufacturer closes, the parts suppliers will shut down due to low volumes. These same parts suppliers provide parts to competitors too causing a reaction to other car companies.

This is the reason Toyota supports parts suppliers and its competitors because if they close, it will be big impact on themselves.

I think they'd more likely downsize than shut down completely. In any case, it wouldn't be cause for eradicating your best selling car from the lineup - price may go up because of offshore manufacturing, but that niche would be too hard to ignore. There will always be a large sedan market in Australia, however small it ends up being.

there has been a bit of this going on for a while already. parts suppliers get ready to close doors, car manufacturers cant complete cars without specific part(s), so they throw enough money at it (making a loss) to keep the production line running until they find a new source for the same/similar parts.

Some of the decline of the Aus car market i think is still due to the slow and pain death of the manufacturing industry, not entirely on price and market domination

    • Ended up spending a WHOLE day yesterday cleaning and rearranging my shed.  Due to the aforementioned disorder, my shed is as cluttered and confused as my brain. Again, because of said disorder,  at any one time there are 5 projects on the go at once and because they're still on the go I don't put everything away so I can "get straight back to it" which rarely happens.. So anyway,  I bought a couple of cheap 2mx2m all steel "pallet racks" to put in my back shed.  The idea is to then take pretty much everything out of the main shed that isn't car related. Most of the garden and building stuff is now booted out to the back shed and onto to the shelves where they belong! There's still more rearranging and reallocating to do and it's still a bit busy in there but it's a massive improvement on how it was previously. I've discovered floor space I forgot I had...  For those that have fully dismantled a car before will understand just how much space it takes up!  Particularly panels, bumpers, engine/trans, etc.  I've got stuff hanging on every available wall to get it up off the floor!  This is not exciting content for a blog but has certainly made the shed feel like a more work ready space now!
    • Updating results from our ATR43SS-1 turbo in T3 .63, OEM bolt dump pattern. Not a big number but pretty sweet for a stock Rb20det. Car's managed to pull 220rwkws at 20psi, perfect boost control internally gated with EBC and excellent mid top end power band as they usually skydive after 5.5K. Usual bolt on supporting mods and inlet plenum and factory location exhaust manifold. Pump 98 fuel was used (Ron 93).     
    • Yeah, well, it's not as though anyone is ever going to buy one of those noisy f**kers and put it into a new installation when there are better pumps that are near silent for less money from Ti.
    • I'd suggest having the engine builder listen to it, especially if they assembled it, and minimise how much you run it in the meantime. It may have a serious issue like a big end bearing from the description and I assume the rebuild was not cheap
    • Quite right, typing without checking, it is an 023 which was effectively the replacement for 040 (not that I could find either of them on the Bosch motorsport AU site), and it has a mesh inlet at the bottom of the pump rather than a separate filter
