Thanks, IJ, I assume it just basically goes in the line, does it matter if its in the feed or return?  Maybe because of the pressure it needs to be the return?

What?  You mean there is no off the shelf solution for an E36 with 600+HP mid-mounted LS, that’s being built for dirt and tarmac events.  Go figure

Just curious IJ, is it a specific kind of steel, and what sort of heat treatment process is it?

If I remember engineering correctly the torsional stiffness of a bar is proportional to the 4th power of its diameter.  So twice the diameter is 16 times stiffer. That’s why very small increments in diameter change like 1 or 2mm make a big difference…[Read more]

Yea baby, that’s the shed up    Bathurst party in it next weekend, then the slab gets done.  Bloody stoked with it.

No cooler at the moment IJ, I have one, just never fitted it.  It was down a little on fluid, topped it up, and was perfect on the way home.  So that maybe shows its OK but marginal so def fitting the cooler is on the list.  Still not sure about this slight weirdness in the rear, might take it to Gawler Mechanical so they can put it on their 4 po…[Read more]

Yea I admit it, I chuckled

Could be, it was new, but might be what the issue is.

Daily duties today in the Senator, the engine started ran like a dream.  A couple of gremlins to eventually sort though.  I ran the fuel pump control down a little manually and that’s sorted that.  So that’s just a simple case of mounting the rocker switch that toggles between the two settings up in the cabin.  That will do for now.  But the powe…[Read more]

Yea nah to the Mustang.

Coming along great.  I know you are a non drinker .but must be tempting to crack a beer and just look and say “I built that”!! What a weapon .

This is the first shed I have ever bought and not erected myself. Decided 18×6 was just too much. Looking at the quality so far have to say I think it was worth getting the pros to do it. And so much quicker than would have ever been.

Yea but also the weather hasn’t been conducive.  Now the sun is out its easier to get interested in getting into I reckon

Mine is in the glovebox.  I didn’t mount it as such.  I just wanted somewhere easy to get too, but I think down in the passenger kick panel is probably a better spot.

Coming togther nicely

And hence why we race bitumen  

wait until you have to service a Landcruiser after its been sunk to the door handles.

There is always something …  Keep us posted.

I reckon that would be a pretty common theme among car builders…

The other thing I hate is working on exhausts, they are always dirty filthy things…
