[chris]

the extractors are a real piece of work arent they????

[JaMeS]

4 sure they look the part :)

[JaMeS]

had a little play with the car tonight and made up a panel for my gauge.

now just need to powdercoat it

425

[2IMPULSIV]

I thought you were putting two gauges in...

:unsure:

[JaMeS]

they are going ontop of the dash :)

[JaMeS]

hrmm i have changed my mind now. its going to look a little diffrent :)

[KAL SPL]

I can find a couple of wires for them but the rest we gonna have to research ...

[JaMeS]

i have the instructions for it and now there is 2 more gauges but they are easy :)

[JaMeS]

all done now :)

[KAL SPL]

1 on the right is a bit low , or are the 2 on the left to high ?

[JaMeS]

haha i was waiting for someone to point that out. the hole saw ran off on me. i might fix it up see how i go :P

[MitchyVYSS]

They definately look rad man. What does each one do? I assume one is a scan gauge?

[2IMPULSIV]

Looks good James..

But even i can see that one is a little lower!!

:P

[JaMeS]

They definately look rad man. What does each one do? I assume one is a scan gauge?


the left and right gauges are scan gauges and the 1 in the middle is a shift light :)

[IM NUTZ]

looks cool.

[JaMeS]

orded a 02 sensor today for the car to see if i can fix the problem. can only buy them from holden at $206 each..

[MitchyVYSS]

Pricey hey, but we had both go on the VY when we had the exhaust done, and it was a pig.

[JaMeS]

Pricey hey, but we had both go on the VY when we had the exhaust done, and it was a pig.


yeah bloody things 1 side of the motors spark plugs are black but the other side is like new. so i will change the 02 and see how it goes from there...

[JaMeS]

well the diff arived today:) so hopefullt that is going in on the weekend and i also have some springs to go in :) i cant wait :). then off to WA Performance in january for a retune and a calibration for the speedo :D

[KAL SPL]

Speedo may calibrate itself if its anything like the BAs , chance of it unless you been told different.
Not saying it is :P

[JaMeS]

i hope it does :) that would save a few speeding fines :P

[KAL SPL]

Actually its the other way round , when it says your doing 70 your actually doing 60
It svaes you from fines if anything.

[JaMeS]

thats even better :) will still have a clean slate :P

[2IMPULSIV]

What ever poof!!!!!



:P

[IM NUTZ]

ahahhahahah

[JaMeS]

got the diff in today :D something i should of done a long time ago. so much easer to drive and so much more responsive ;). and the speedo seems to be correct, well it seams that way.

[JaMeS]

well i orded one of these blits bonnets and it arived today but the transport company thort it would look better if they snap one of the corners off and put some dents in it. and it also looks like it has been dropped. will put some pics up later.

[2IMPULSIV]

Your joking!!!

What can be done about it? Insurance?

I bet your pi$$ed off!!!!

It is absolute bulls$%t... You basically need to get everything sent here in a steel re-inforced box to protect it... Hope you have insurance i think I remember hearing you say you had it insured...

[JaMeS]

yeah i had insurance .farken wankers

[JaMeS]

the corner of the bonnet went through 4 layers of cardboard.

[vkgroupa3]

Which Freight company did it come by?

[JaMeS]

come with TNT

[chris]

i got my OTR sent with them, box didnt have a mark on it, came from sydney too

[vkgroupa3]

I have never had any joy with TNT and try to avoid using them where ever possible! Goods are either damaged or missing in action for weeks at a time.

Hope the insurance comes through mate!

[JaMeS]

got a trophy for best body and pain at motorvation
