Just heard that on the news, never good hearing those sort of things... They also said that snow is due at the end of the week in the alpine regions, lucky we missed that

Yeah headed over to the docklands for dinner, so I managed to stop the storm that was brewing haha Already told her I'm going on the snowies cruise [emoji13]

950ks in total once I got home, the dash trip computer was saying 10.6 average fuel And average speed was 79kph Which is what blew me away, just showed how little we were held up through the hills. Shattered I missed the run down falls as a group, that would have been fun to push each other on Ended up taking me 4hours to get home from there I'll grab my fuel receipts tonight and work out a total, but off the top of my head I think I spent just a bit over $150 on fuel

Yeah I agree, was a great weekend thanks for organising it all Gary and was great meeting everyone and sharing a few stories, hope I can make it to many more!! Can't wait to see the footage from this little thing either https://vimeo.com/122883130

Count me in! Move me up to the definite list [emoji106]

Also just to add a little more info on clutches for you gunna An Organic clutch will most likely have a harder pedal, as more clamping force is needed, but this isn't always true as ratter said but they are easier to drive is much nicer to the rest of your driveline eg.(input shaft, unis, shaft, diff gears and axles) Lasts longer if it is not cooked by slipping it, And it Wears out the disc itself more than the flywheel and pressure plate And if you get a button/ceramic clutch disc It is possible the pedal could be a bit lighter as less clamping force is needed They Can handle more abuse/bad driving as ceramic doesn't lose any friction as it heats up But downside is that it will wear quicker when it does try to be slipped And it wears all three pieces evenly, as in your flywheel and pressure plate wear down at the same rate as the disc, so it can become more costly to replace later on as flywheels can be worn past minimum thickness It's the same as brakes... Harsh pads have good stopping ability, but wear your disc out faster and have better feel Softer pads like OEM, don't wear out the disc and have softer bite and feel, and go crappy once they are cooked It's still going to come down to what you tell the place your getting a clutch from And they will steer you in the right direction

I think you'll find he will have to do valve springs... The more boost you run, the more pressure that is on them, standard are not made to handle 20psi
