Bruce uses a Dyno Dynamics Dyno.
-
No you wont. Bruce wont like that Jet
-
I hope your right. Its a lot closer for us than going to Virginia.
-
There is no reason why a Late model camira cant wear a Chev badge. Commodores sold in South Africa are sold as a Chev, and some in the states. Fords just Ford regardless of where you go(maybe no imagination???)
-
Apparently Monarto has been canned due to proximity to Zoo, and the normal whinging people. Mate lives at Murray Bridge, and he told me.

Yeah, any track is better than nothing. Portland mob have spent a fair bit of money getting the track and amenities up to scratch so these faster cars will come. The Doorslammer blokes like the track down there. Whats happening on the Adelaide drag front? AIR gunna get going properly, or will Tailem Bend step up? Need a decent strip to get the Top Fuelers etc back to SA.
-
Yeah Jet, still run at Coonawarra I think. Never been there myself. Not interested in watching street cars drag though, like watching paint dry IMHO. Was good yesterday. Victor and Ben Bray, Peter Kapiras etc. Top line cars. One tried to have sex with the concrete barrier, but lost. Couple of Prostock style cars out of Adelaide as well. Russo funny car.

Just came back from 1/8th mile drags at Portland(Vic). They had 9 Doorslammers there. John Zappia won, 4.01, 184mph. Top meeting. Even had a few Nostalgic rigs there.
-
What part do you want a pic of, the F cup, rubbing in the cream, or Jet rubbing one out at work??????? or all 3.
-
How much better is the braking with them??
-
I would doubt that 17" will clear 355mm rotors and calipers. that's Brembo size rotors.
-
Being of the "older" age bracket, I had to put up with Sol and his oils aint oils sh*te adds for Castrol GTX which was nothing but rubbish, so never "bonded" with Castrol at all. Just had Castrol of some description in my VE GTS, and it did nothing but rattle its head off. Was OK on previous Mobil 1, and is now OK on Fuchs. Just not a fan. I use Nulon in my turbo ute with no issues.
-
You wouldnt have any more info on those brackets Ralph? Ford part?, or PBR? I am concerned that my 18s may not clear the bigger rotors.
-
Nulon now do a 5w20 full syn oil. Dont know any more than that about it. And no, I aint a Nulon rep, just a Castrol hater.
-
Mine turned up today. Ordered front pads, already had rears. Just gotta get them fitted.
-
Just bought a set myself, so will see how they go. I didnt want to take having to change the wheels risk with Brembos. Should do what I want.
-
Sales figures arent important to me, just stating a fact. And no, I dont own a Mazda of any description. And, racing isnt everything, although it seems to be a pen*s issue around here Now, back to the dreaded coil issue.
-
Nulon have some new oils out now. Have the info at work. Will have a look 2moro.
-
I bought some new brakes for my ute.
-
Jet, Sprints is SA only. Why is Castrol the only oil for that engine?? I personally dont like Castrol, but that's me.
-
Go 3 posts up mate, Ratters your man :sungum: Havent used him myself, but hes God to the Melbourne blokes.
-
Power steer leak will be a hose, or fitting, common problem, engine oil leak could be rod coming out of block(common again) If you arent in a hurry, and as said, can stretch to a few more $, keep looking for as late as you can afford.
-
I must admit, I didnt check up on whats available, just seems most forums people say there isnt the choice in WA, and prices are higher. Certainly better if can shop local.
-
Way too expensive IMHO. Plenty of later BFs, and early FGs getting around now. Why would you bother with the early ones. I know cars over in the West are thin on the ground, but a good fly n drive trip to the East will get you something way better.
-
One of my other cars. I like my imports :sungum:
