Well for the GC anyways

I hope to god that is a lie... I want to die... My phone says it's 7 here but there was ice on Zanes work van windscreen... My fingertips hurt it's that cold, when we landed in Canberra on Friday night it was -1 and I was rugged up like an eskimo!!!

ha! If only I could control the weather

Ahh yeah if only I could... It would always be warm...! And if it was cold it would only be cold to the point I could tolerate it and no further...

However it shouldn't be cold enough for 3 pairs of socks, tights, jeans, long sleve shirt, big jacket, onesie and blankets with the heater on and still cold...

are you sleeping outside or something?

Hahahah I feel the cold really badly which is half the reason we moved to QLD - This morning my fingertips were sore they were that cold!

you remind me of my work colleague Jenny.

She dresses up like an Eskimo in the morning because she cannot tolerate the cold lol

Turbo gurus, I'm tossing up between a hoghflow with a journal bearing and I've with a ball bearing. What other than $500 and faster spool are the benefits of the ball bearing? Looking for about 250rwkw and good response.

Kgo.

    • I noticed that I could see creatures on the moon when I turned my new headlights on. I thought I should check the alignment. It's pretty rudimentary but I just grabbed some dry wall and put it against my tablet and made sure the beam was below the height on the headlights. Ie the beam is at 600mm on my car, I just made it lower than that 7.5m away.  Not the best but it'll do until I can do it properly at the local shops.   
    • As @Duncan said - the bores are most likely to cop it. But anything can and does happen. Rods are cheap. Rods are good. The work to rebuild the motor will be 30x the price of rods. You won't notice it.
    • Yeah car has 110 on the clock. That said the front turbo (that exploded) doesn't seem to be the original, it has a S1 part number but the car is a series 3. Yep, in the cat is where I first found the turbine wheel pieces - a couple decent sized ones, then a whole lot of fragments.  I agree, probably makes sense to upgrade parts that are being replaced. Things like rods would be 'nice' but realistically it seems unlikely they would need replacing. I was hoping that it was a case that they generally f**k up the valves but not the bore, or vice versa. Is it generally the scour damage rather than ceramic bits getting mashed into the piston tops / valves? I tried a search but couldn't find any threads with pics from the guts of a motor that's had this happen. 
    • Front seats now in, fixing a little rust then front doors sealed up again finished. had to install a fire extinguisher within arms distance of drivers seat for hill climb regulations. little bit of good old silo diff action lol IMG_9146.mov
