Morning all.

Hi Tony

At work streaming football through my ipad.... Yes its a slow start to the day

Shocks, springs, sway bars and bump stops are good. Everything else i would be going adjustable arms (you can get adjustable arms with rubber bushes rather than spherical bearings). The sub frame alignment kit http://www.whiteline.com.au/product_detail4.php?part_number=KCA349 why would he recommend that rather than just replacing the 20 year old bushes?

Also what about the diff mounts, rear lower control arm bushes, bushes in the rear hubs/uprights and more i can't think of now. There are a lot of parts he has left out.

was going to get diff mounts, bushes after mate. As the coilovers and sway bars are more of a priority for me FTM.

Lol. Boss is picking me up to head to a breakfast meeting so I can leave now-ish as opposed to 45 minutes ago.

[Ants]

I'm already at work

[SCR48]

Football has finished time to get back to work

[Bunta]

I am only just rolling out of bed now. I needed to get to work early today too! Oh well 9am will do.

[SCR48]

I would have been slaving away for 4 hours by then lol

[Bunta]

I should have been slaving away as I have somthing due that I have barely touched, but I have literally run out of fu@ks lol

Mr Ants, I recommend not doing coilovers and swaybars at the same time.

Makes for a really harsh ride. If your coilovers have hard spring rates, leave stock swaybars in and see how it feels. Likewise, if you have stiff swaybars, chuck them in and maybe go for a softer coilover.

Have a gingerbeer coming out on Thurs arvie Scotty, hopefully can get a roady and rego before the weekend. If so, I might get to the dyno day

oh! I will take that under advisement.

Side note my garage door farked itself last nite.......can't even manually lift the door as it's 100kg and my powerlifting days are well and truly over.

Have to fork out money to repair it now so suspension needs to wait + the Jannica's car and the Ant-eater is stuck for now

Morning Gentlemangs,

Back in Brisneyland, and back at work .

The new F1 cars sound sh*t. The super taxis and porsches were louder. They are going to lose crowds for sure

[-Boz-]

The new F1's make 130ish dB. Down from the mid 140's of the V8's but far from quiet. Is it just the turbrah that kills the noise?

I don't care what the numbers say, there is no comparison. I went a few years ago and you NEEDED ear plugs. I didn't take any thinking "bah, I've heard race cars before, I won't need them". I was f*cking wrong and luckily I was able to get some at the track.

They had one old V8 there (RB7) doing the ultimate speed comparison and even just that one running was borderline on wanting to block your ears, but with all 22 of the new ones running you don't even get close to needing them.

dB is a logarithmic scale so a change of 10-15 is significant. But it's not just the volume but the nature of the sound, the old ones sounded just glorious while the new ones sound... agricultural?

[Bunta]

Yeah 10 to 15 db is a very large difference!

I would not be complaining too much about the noise reduction Marty......you have been lucky enough to witness several F1 events live, whilst others have never seen them or may never get the opportunity to see them fly past at full blast
