Miko,

Seems a few dudes got PB's.

I took the Volvo out for a spin tonight, it tells me it wants to go to the drags too.

From the looks of things it will get a mid 14 if I leave it in 'D' maybe a bit quicker. I'll have to get the shift kit put in so I can get 1st to 2nd working better on manual shifts, then it might get a 13.

Yea - it was interesting cos some of the guys didn't think the track prep was very good so mixed feelings really.

be interesting to see how the Volvo would actually go - I know it's quick. Would be great to see the look of ppl's faces when it rolls into the staging area:)

I was a bit pissed at first, seemed like I just wasted my money last night, but on the way home I was happy again, beat a few cars:D

There was a Commodore trying to keep-up around a corner, he fish-tailed it a few times before running it up and embankment at 70km/hr:bahaha:

See'ya:burnout:

Should be tomorrow - but as long as it's before next weekend i don't care.

Did you check the map for your cruise? Long term forecast says it may be wet next weekend, but the bbq spot that we checked is undercover - I will phone tomorrow to see if we can book that spot.

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
