Did anyone else but tats and myself see the little fiat bambino. Complete with half cage and a turbo strapped to the side of the little 2 cylinder engine?

Was the coolest car of the show for me

I took a couple of photos. I might post them up but I had a smear on the lens which wasn't apparent until I looked on the computer.

when I got home from Wheels on Sunday I heard water frying on the engine :(

Checked it out and it seemed to be comming from the back of the block where I couldn't see or get to.

I got REAL concerned...... you'd understand if you knew my history with this GTR.

Did some further checking on SAU to see what it could be. Opinions - a hose (sigh of relief)

It turns out one of my Turbo water lines that goes around the back had a pin prick of a hole but opend up under pressure.

and you cant get to it without taking the inlet manifold off and other stuff around that area.

1 x 4" hose $8

2 x hose clamps $7

Labour $330 - Ouch!

Peace of mind - PRICELESS!

yeah, both Andrew Mark stopped like champions!

Turned out that the positive battery cable past too close the extractors, melted the insulation and earthed it out.1 new battery and a relocate for the cable and I was running again. Interestingly, the first battery was still

hot to touch 1½ later…pinch.gif

I did.... I think I might have missed Zeb's Supra out, but took it from that end looking down when all the cars were still there. I'll upload it when I get home from work.

alright thanks heaps, i just completely had a brain fart and forgot.
