After performing some more Temporary Dunwood Mechanics on Jeremy's Rosie34, I installed my New OEM Coilpacks and sanded some paint off in the boot to make my Fuel Pumps Earth Stronger.

Installed new front rotors and will be doing the rears tomorrow,

[D.I.Y. Mik]

If your hubs are slightly out, which is often the case on an older car, your new rotors will be out of line too.

If this happens, get the rotors machined on the hub, mark it so if you ever take it off you can put it on the same way.

Now my rotors are matched to the hubs, as my hubs arent perfect, still quite good but not perfect.

Yes, sometimes you have to machine new rotors!

Made side panels for the radiator intake area.

Just made from corflute for a template, they seem to work ok, bottom is still open, thats next.

Top has the Greddy one on.

Finished installing rotors and got my car ready for dickson and the up coming cruises, fractured my arm and wrist on the bike afterwards so now have to wait 4 months to drive

Wow, that is seriously unfortunate

Had a go at repairing the $25 guards, but i think its a waste of time.

Theres a thin layer of fibreglass in there somewhere under the putty.

And the putty is all old and cracking. ill use them for testing the spraygun.

Bonnett was painted in something that looked like fake vinyl? Thick crap whatever it was.

Couldnt sand it, too soft and clogged the paper, so paint stripper carefully used and washed off.

Then sand sand sand. Getting there. The primer underneath is nice and hard.

And some freebies came with a book i bought.

I dont have an rc car, so there free to whoever wants them.

[D.I.Y. Mik]

More things in the mail:

Bits for wheels and deep dish for correct position when the race seat is in.

No fake centrecaps to be found, so i had to fork out for the real ones.

No rear tyres yet, i have to wait. So sunday hillclimbs on the street wheels/tyres.

Now i have a guide to handling, i was thinking i should try a suspension tweak to try and get less drift.

Removed Turbo Timer..

Don't want any silly defect hassles from this blitz on at the moment.

Besides, I never used it anyway.

[Got a Pulsar]

Good plan.

Don't need.

[B-rice]

why do people ditch turbo timers these days. i realised they have been associated with the fag hectic factor but thats not what they were made for. I reckon they keep your turbo well specially if your in a rush.

[Sklyn]

If not for the DEFECT factor I would have left it for the odd occasion where it would be useful.

But even in a hurry I'm not going to be boosting all the way up the street into the driveway.

I don't think they were made for road cars, hectic factor just took them there.

besides, if I go for a track day or something I can easily reconnect it.

^{1. Illegal ! (no one in control of the running vehicle)}

^{A vehicle sitting stationary with the engine running (Idle) get's warmer and stays warmer for longer. Although does cool your Turbo due to oil and water still circulating.}

^{It's better 2 minutes out to drive pedestrian and let it cool down. Forced airflow continues where as when stationary ....}

^{Like athletes - warm up and cool down. It will prolong the life of ALL your vehicles major organs.}

^{Turbo timer is good as it circulates the oil and water to the Turbo if you seriously don't have time and drive it VERY HARD (Race conditions) right up to your destination and then shut it off immediately.}

^{Turbo's start glowing between 350 to 500 degree's. If it's not glowing then your probably ok}
