LMAO he'll be telling all his backward cap mates about the run he had with a killer Supra! (your legend will grow) ;)

Not sure if this is what Dead has in mind but laying a White one offset over a Black one would give it a nice shade/shadow effect!

THIS IS INSANE! the potential for injury doing this is huge please don't anyone try this :nuts:

I was just thinking of simplicity, it's going to be a bit of a sleeper so not all out for power so the CT WG should cope fine at those flow rates without creep! I drove a Cressy when I was looking for a beater and the only reason I didn't get it was lack of grunt a GTE would have fixed that...

North: Thanks! you'r a star. Man that's a fast Mk3 and he held his head high against Ryan! :)

The ECU has a temp sender high up in the tstat housing I guess if the coolant was low the ECU might think something is wrong and go into limp mode?

Looks great! :)

Jayson: I keep getting a network error when i try to view them :(. If you've viewed em they should be in you internet temp files!

There's heaps of adjustment in the front I had a problem with the rear when I dropped it with both tanks full it ran out of adjustment. I ended up lengthening the lower transverse arms to get the adjuster cams back in the middle of their range.

Pioneer: Depends on boost and flow! My car with the GT30R was choked to 9psi by the IC being too small. I ran it with a full 2.5" system then changed to a 3" and saw no difference at all but I suspect if the IC wasn't choking it there would have been. Maybe ask BIC if he can make you a...

Gixx: :( hurts to read this.....

By "Freaking people out" If Simple means I'm actually giving facts based on reality and physics yeah I guess I am! I said it's rare to actually have problems and even then it's only under sustained high speed running so in a DD it shouldn't ever be an issue. As for a 2 piece being cheaper...

Yeah it was a bitch to get rolling but once it was going it was fun! :) Used to freak friends out dropping back to 1st at highway speeds! (It had a 2 piece shaft with a centre bearing and a CV joint)

Eriol: LOL I had a Holden Commodore with a 2.5:1 9" Ford diff and a Toploader box that would do 135Kph in 1st ;)! Econ: Yep I'd say that qualifies as sustained top end :)!

Econ: If you were doing sustained high speed running yes I'd say it would kill parts fairly quickly, The slip yoke on the driveshaft runs in a plain bearing and I think that would be the first to suffer followed by uni joints. I stayed 2 piece after talking to my driveshaft specialist. A...

Eriol: They're stock ADM mirrors ;)! With universal joints they travel in an eliptic path, at a certain speed they get a touch out of synch and this can be felt as vibration. Is seems to be worse/more pronounced on a long shaft so most car makers put a CV joint in the middle of the shaft...

They look a bit like what I have on mine :)! (On Topic: NVH is what I've been told and something about at high speed a single piece tends to whip)

Lol :)!

Usually if the fingers are uneven it's a broken pivot ring causing it so shouldn't be an issue with a new PP. A quick check with a used PP is to tap it on the ground if a pivot ring is broken you'll hear a ringing like a bell if it's ok it'll be a dull clank.

For soft rubber type seals and gaskets I use Permatex #3 as it doesn't set hard. For hard gaskets I use #4 I use maniseal on anything exhaust I use fipg for the pan On head gaskets if they have a viton rubber coating I'll use a thin smear of #3 around the timing case end but leave...
