Now my car goes, i can enter. Entries close 8pm tomorrow.

So scrutineering starts at 730 am,

If its got a good mount, yeah. Thats what mines lacking. Duct tape wont pass.

Gus, it was $1890 fitted, with some, not all, new bearings and seals.

:D

Man... Car looks Awesome! :woot: Amazing what Some wheels can do.

I take it that it is driving better now with wheels / diff etc?

Cam has a sucky cup and will likely stick to a clean panel but certainly sticks to the inside windscreen Very Well.

So what time are you getting there? 7:00 - 7:30? I can do that. (starting work at 5am lately so 7 is nothing)

ill be there at 730

but i have to enter first, ill make sure to tell you if i get in or not. :thumbsup:

Ive only just done the figure 8s as instructed to get oil through the clutches, it feels weird, i havent driven it for 2 weeks.

A few more drives and ill see how good it is, my technique is to work your way up to it gradually, and you wont stack.

Spent the day replacing the last few old, dried and cracked joiners for the turbo outlet and crossover pipe and replaced the low pressure power steering lines.

Half the day was spent driving around northside to a few transmission places to try and track down some 5/8 trans hose, ended up having to go out to enzed in fyshwick to get it. I think i have fixed more issues on my car since it's been off the road for the last few months than I have the whole 2 years I have owned it.

Wow... that diff is good!

Very hard to break traction now, the federal rsr help too.

Now i can use more power!

BUT it stinks of fuel, somewhere from the back, better fix it before it bursts into flames.

fuel tank is out, pretty easy to do

heaps of dust and crap all over it

Looks like the leaks are from the filler or the vent line or the filler overflow line.

anyway all hoses are being replaced and ill have a look at the filler tube gasket.

a fresh coat of tar underneath would be good too

If i turn up for scrutineering reeking of fuel, illl fail for sure.

    • That's a short. Find the short. It will be somewhere between that fuse and the headlight. Start by removing the plugs from the back of the headlight and dimmer switches, and measure resistance to earth. Supply side (power from the fuse) should have none. The other side should have resistance compatible with whatever globe(s) is there (which is relatively easy to say for a normal globe, perhaps not as easy to say for LEDs). Anyway, if you have very low resistance, you defo have a short. Then you just have to run the wiring like you're running the bowel of a dog (on the operating table) that has swallowed something it wasn't supposed to.
    • Hey guys, need help figuring out why my driver side (RH) fuse 15amp keeps blowing. The Driver Sides Headlamp is out, i replaced these a long time ago with LED ones that were working for 1-2 years. Now, the driver side light is out and i traced it back to a broken fuse. I replaced the 15 amp fuse in the engine bay and as soon as i flip the headlight on, it blows the new fuse. Any idea what's going on?
    • I found the same with Subaru’s.  I own and love the SG9 Forester, after that model 2008+, Subaru threw the ugly stick at all their line up and somehow managed to make them look worse with every succeeding year.  lol
    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility
