aaaaaaaaaaaaaa

here is some shelby poetry...........

My friend is a poet...

tehehehehe *shucks* I am not a poet, merely an admirer of a masterpiece created in the time where cars were dangereous and sex was safe - by a team with vision, something ford has never encountered ever since. Aerodinamics -_wind-tunnels in mind, sleek, elegant and perfect 50/50 balance to go around corners. Weight - completely different monocoque construction - same as today's F1 cars - first ever, very light and 3 times as strong and finally POWER.... full aluminium 7.4 litre (light) with enought horsepower to tow Greg Norman's boat, not to mention torque - because there is no substitute for cubic inches and at 427 cubic inch this baby had about 700 Nm of torque. Until today every Chev owner has only been able to dream and even the R/T Viper only begins to scratch the surface with the 6 Litre V10 - fourty years later. *sniff* this is nostalgic stuff.....

had stuff to dooo

anyone know who drives a white R33 with a big ricey FastLane sticker on the rear window ..... saw it today with a Celica with number plates "docking" in pursuit.

Well looks like we finaly hear something bad about steve at SST.

Not gonna go into the details but Gradenko is not a happy chappy. Basically he told steve to pull something out and send it to some other guys to fix it under warranty as it was only out last month and they guarentee their work.

Steve palms it off to another guy because hes busy or couldnt be bothered and the other guy passes it on to the warranty place which doesnt know its under warranty and charges the second guy for the work.

He goes back to pick it up this morn and finds hes been charged just cause steve had a communication breakdown and/or couldnt be bothered. So an extra $200 on the bill for something he could have done him self but didnt want the car off the road for 4days. Also both steve and the guy he palmed it to are now saying its not their problem. Real nice.

I know there are 2 sides to every story but this side dont sound too good.

    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
    • No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
