I'm still 99% coming to see ya for a dishwasher and look at phones this week. I can take a look if you have it at work

Maybe use a wider bit of cardboard mark off where the wheels are then stick it over the top of the engine bay for reference. Just a thought? Such a pain up on axle stands. In and out with lights. Hate not having a hoist at work anymore.

i have the same problem

I sussed out if there was any play in the tail shaft / axles on Sunday and it seemed pretty good. Checked upper/lower rear and subframe bushes and was all in reasonably Good condition. I lowered the rear tyrepressure from 34 to 30 with 32 in the front for a similar foot print. Drove better but there is obviously a underlying issue?
Who else is going to the drags Wednesday?

Am interested in going for another run but will have to check if I can take the car to work. Had to go home to beechboro last week load tools in the xr8 and rush down there through poxy as traffic?

Wife said do I ever have to do that again? It was boring. She only liked the lumpy as 10sec Monaco. Total bogan.

hopefully the weather is nicer next week

Hey honey I caught a heap of squid and they left big ink marks out of the shed then onto the road outside our place. Damn those squids.

    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365.

I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 馃槄
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
