Yeah man it was an effort. My outside temp gauge said 41C, it was pretty warm lol, got some sunburn action going on. Pad looks good though and will be spot on for the shed install. -

Spent 9 hours on the digger today prepping the shed pad. Got it all dug out and got about 30 tonnes of rubble in place that is mostly level. Got another 4 tonnes of rubble to chuck in tomorrow, a whole lot more levelling and that's all for the digger. Will put my laser level to use, to finish it off with rakes, then onto compaction. I'll hire a roller cos be farked holding onto a compactor all day. I know there's at least one mod still present, maybe they can move this to the right spot -
Yep, it's a thing
-
Spent the afternoon learning how to braid and practicing on the wife and girls. It's much easier than it looks, just gotta get some more practice in and there will be braids for days
-
Yeah man, that's the plan. Hydrate early and all the stuff you mentioned. It'll be fine and I'll also be having some Zooper Doopers
-
Gonna be the same on the weekend when I have to be driving the digger all day. Fun times 😐
-
Fark me it's hot today, 38c. I went out there a few hours ago tuning, then went driving, then washed my car, then washed the missus car. Now I'm hot af, fark that sh*t 🥵
-
Yeah ya can't really do that with na stuff at part throttle unless the tune was farked before. Boost is an entirely different animal
-
It would be a bit of a guess as to whether it made a difference if going by arse g's.
-
Except this was done with an actual dyno
-
Turns out it made about an 8% to 12% increase in torque between 2000rpm and 2800rpm. It only wanted a degree in a couple of spots and a couple degrees in a couple spots. Not a massive difference but you can feel it so that's a win.
-
I'm gonna put my car on the dyno again and see how many low and mid gains I can make
-
Not long now!
-
Yeah man I'll update when the time comes. A quick peak though, my shed is the same size as the one in the other pic I posted, I think it's 30cm higher though.
-
I've got the digger for 2 days to excavate and level the area, then spread out the base. The shed is being delivered in 3 weeks, so there is no stress getting it done if any issues pop up.
-
What I should have said is, "just a small amount of leveling needed"
-
I'm not making the whole thing level, just the shed area. It is actually mostly level, just a small amount of work needed. Most of the stuff is arriving this weekend so we'll see how good my shed pad making skills are. I'll hire a roller next week to compact it.
-
Bought a laser level today, here's a long exposure pic of my backyard tonight, phone resting against my glass on the trampoline Haha can you tell it isn't level?!
-
Check the resistance across the terminals. I found a similar issue with a VE V6 olden a while back, solenoids measured half the resistance and was showing half the cam timing, or something like that.
-
Spent a handful of hours in the yard today moving sh*t and clearing it a bit. Also spent a couple hours dragging a dyno ramp behind the ride on mower to smooth sh*t out a bit. I've got a digger coming on the weekend for the pad prep, along with 24 tonnes of dolomite rubble to compact with a compactor, not long now before it's all done! Got a bit more done than is in the pic but you get the idea
-
Good times man and how it has changed. I been playing counter-strike and gt7 on the ps5, they kick ass lol
-
I had an Indy 500 game on the 286... Or maybe it was a 386, I can't remember. I do remember it had 16 colours though so that was pretty cool.
-
Haha yeah good old roller blades. I slip streamed a bus using them one day. Nearly went ass up lol. We got a Sega Master System 2 back in 91 and by 94 had a SNES. Super Metroid ftw! Far out man, I remember going from a 24k dial up modem to 56k and that was the sh*t lmao. Never did much online though, spoke to randoms on chat boards mainly...haha still do
-
I first got internet in 1994, it was mostly bmx riding before that lol
-
6 people streaming, we need it lol. Remember when there was free to air tv and no internet? Now it's nearly $200/m for internet and streaming services.
