Be like tom cruise in cocktail, stuff getting thrown around

Pete, go long!!
Just finished a full twin system on a mack truck. Turbo to y-piece dual 5" mufflers and 6" stacks. 6cyl dohc with massive turbo. At least they got the engine right ;-) can you toss a bourbon about 300kms? [emoji23]
Say no more.
Had a good chat to the Minister on the weekend, we agreed the best thing to do is hand it off to a pro builder as the frame mod list id getting pretty long. Just got to find a bloke I like and trust now. 
Also, used my local "hire a hoist" place to do the service on the ministers focarse too, due to me still being a creaky old bastard, and for the $60 it cost me was an absolute bargain I reckon. All I bought with me was the car and parts, everything else was supplied, so would def recommend

The only forienger I like is. Hot blooded, I wanna know what love is, cold as ice, feels like the first time Etc. The softest metal ever made.
Actually I’m back into guitar. Maybe someday I’ll get a banjo
Hows the boy going with the classical? Be very very careful not to snap the banjo string. Would require a delicate operation and embarrassing explanation:-o

The beard of a top quality tradesman. Years of experience glistening from the red bristles. Now there is a man you can trust:-)
Chicken coop construction coming along nicely.

Hopefully buy some Chooks tomorrow
Boc boc boc boc boc bopbgurk boc bgarg. "so I laid an egg" you should get yourself a Stinky Rooster to keep the chicks in line.

my name at work is "greybeard" and i kinda like it :blush:

Picked up a rolling frame from a TTR600 Belgrade last night for a song. Came with a beefy 51mm cartridge fork style front end and fully adjustable Olins rear shock, so suspension for Ragnar is almost sorted :woot: Just gotta get the fork emulators sorted and the changeover can begin.

Morning babes

Sup for the weekend?

pulling Ragnar down to the frame at the front end (most of this is already done as i found a couple of spots of surface rust along the oil tank seams when I took the tank off) and pulling the front end off the new parts bike so I can make some drawings up of the new centre spindle Imma going to need to bring the 2 together, so I can get it trailered off next week to get the new tank fitted and a new seat base made.

    • Because that’s not what any of them are building these heads or blocks for. It’s to hold over over 1000hp at the wheels without breaking and none of that stuff is required to make power 
    • Dort sounds above 3k rpm are dorty 🤣 I might krinkle black the alloy 🤔
    • It makes you wonder, all these people starting to make a billet replacement head, I wonder if any have thought about trying to adapt tech from newer engines into them. You're already at the full design stage to make a billet head... Why not really spice it up and had some more modern tech into the mix too...
    • Connect all the plumbing up properly. The actual worst part about having the turbo unable to actually build boost, is you can and likely would over soon the turbo if you drove the car (free rev while stationary isnt likely to manage it).   If you do have an air leak as Duncan suggested, you'll have a bad time as the AFM will be saying different to reality.   As you have had the engine out, I'd go over all electrical connections again. If you have a consult cable, plug it in, and see what the ECU thinks is going on. Did you touch the timing belt? If so, double check your timing on the gears is correct AND put a timing light on it while it's idling and see what ignition setting you have. Is the AFM you've installed the one that was in the car previously? You said you replaced seals, what seals exactly? What have you had apart?   From memory when I had my RB25DET with factory throttle, there was two plugs the TPS plug on the loom could go to. One would leave the car running like shit, the other made it work, I think one plug on the TPS area was for something else (an option). It's too many years since I saw that part of the loom to remember properly though.   Is the car idling smooth (as smooth as an RB can)? Does it smell fuelled up?   I have a feeling either timing in timing belt is off, or a sensor isn't right.
    • Theres still skid pan and motokhana days up in QLD at least that are $100 or less. The ones that are ran as "driver training" less so, they're expensive, but just normal skid pan days like SAU ran are still low cost. And thats one of the places I learned to be a lariken, purely by asking for passenger rides, and how people were doing crazy things. Reese gave me plenty of pointers back in the day for skid pan! And yes Duncan, I will never forget your pointers for track work. Especially after Neil got out saying "I am NEVER getting in the car with him again!" 😛
