Hay peeps :wavey:

Well I am off again going to go and help the people in Arche for a few months, wish me luck people, who knows maybe I will be able to afford a real car when I get back.

For those that don't know me checkout Car of the month for Oct last year hehehe, it is now in Coffs Harbor in the hands of a bogan. I am a carpenter in the Army and was told on wed to pack for monday as your off to Sumartara and Arche to help rebuild and clean up "stuff".

Have a safe trip Beau. I'm sure they need all the help they can get to rebuild the homes. As Jason said, be careful not to catch any bad diseases from all those corpses.

I was watching 60 minutes tonight and they reckon in 21st century there will be a "grandad tsunami" which will wipe out 1,000,000 people at Pandong? I think it was, halfway up the coast line from Ache. The plates are moving soo much that some expert from California predicted the last tsunami and has predicted the next withing the next 100 years :S

I'm sure you'll meet the best people in the world and work alongside them to build a new city for a devistated country :D

Congratulations on the apointment.

I wish my work would send me there to do something....

I was touched by the disaster and wish i could do something, but i cant do anything atm.

Hope you feel good about the apointment. You will love it, it will be very rewarding. Wait for a day off and have a cold beer by the beach and you will love it. Cant say i know wat their going through, but as ex-army (now civy) some of my best days were in the armed forces. You will return to Aust and be so full of self respect and have already gained the respect from us here at SAU Qld. Once again good luck with the job ahead and i hope you only a sore thumb as a result of combat with a hammer. LOL

Cheers Col

goodluck mate

every cruise entrant pays 5 or 10 bucks, cruiz to a beach on a sunday, park, have a bbq to make sum more cash, 100s club as well, invite other clubs along? has it ben done yet?

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
