how was everyones week end?

Spent most of yesterday arvo chopping out rotted wooden support beams out of the bottom of a fiberglass boat. So I'm itchy as fark today.

The day started with "Lets replace the soft plywood floor" and escalated into a fully stripped hull and plans to replace seating / supports / wakeboard rope riser pole, etc

Fibreglass is good for you

Probably

Wakeboarding is amazing, will be worth the fiberglass impregnation once finished Simon...

Had my last hens party ever on sat

Dad's birthday in the evening

Slept in Sunday - doing nothing on some weekends is underrated

i never got into power water sports. its the smell of crappy fuel and people hosing off their boat after a morning of fishing. such an inefficient form of transport. jet skis ruining a perfectly quiet beach. me failing miserably at knee-boarding on an awkward ex gf's family trip to eildon. having to read speed gauges in mph.

Knots is where it's at

Also, that smell of fuel around a 2 stroke outboard or 350 inboard is possibly the best smell in the world

I reckon wakeboarding is easier than kneeboarding, was up first try on a wakey but kneeboard took a few goes

    • Thanks for that.... If only I could do something once and be happy with that, like some people do....
    • I had no transmission at all so I managed to find a big box manual gearbox from an R34 GTT for an insanely good price in EU. I converted it to push type which cost more than the transmission almost, with parts from Amayama! These engines are very strong and can put out decent power with a properly sized turbo. You can save on money from parts like pistons and rods, and invest those in the transmission and other parts. I suggest you join the RB20 Enthusiasts facebook group, plenty of info and almost daily posts there about 20DE/DET/Neo+T builds. (I hope I'm not breaking any forum rules by mentioning third party platforms, just trying to help the buddy out)
    • Yeah, having tried all of those methods including BBQ+recipro/hacksaw, I ended up buying a bush press kit under $150 that works well, like this: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/355967727167?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=705-154756-20017-0&ssspo=sfmmuhxgqhm&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=dJvnaZ11TB-&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY It basically has a range of pushers and cups with threaded rods between to press out a range of large bushes. The problem with any sawing solution is minimising damage to the subframe side, although it probably needs a quick sand afterwards no matter what solution you try due to damage
    • Hi. Thanks for the answer. I do not have instagram 😄 I too considering turbo the RB20DE NEO 🙂 But i think i upgrade the gearbox first or at least buy new.  
    • Just pulled the passenger apart so got a good idea, also the side bracket that pivots the top half is completely cooked.. how I don’t know.. haha and paid $400 also included a photo of the passenger seat! She is mint
