W1NT3R

Fixed power steering, went to bleed it, blew a high presure hose. FML

GTRwilson

haha damn.

OT: in the morning i gotta jack it up and find out why the exhaust is hanging lower than it should be. Also try and find out what the slight knock is in the front end when coming into my driveway.

Joyrid3r

mailbox?

aussiemk2

my corona had a knock when pulling into driveways etc, turned out the ball joint had shit it self and the strut top had dissintergrated

Geoff

Welded some heavy mesh onto the bullbar:



Bad. Fucking. Ass.

Sprayed some paint over where id stripped paint for welding but we only had red (in a town where having spray paint at all is frowned upon and regulated, you dont get much of a choice so its gonna stay red primer'd i think). At least it wont rust.

Slowly bombproofing it for the upcoming muster, going to be a big one, need all i can get!

Sharpy

the engine? haha, jk.

OT: a pic from just dave from at the drags. Bloody fog.

Lost the keys to the ute

truffles

It has keys?


OT: Nothing. Brother has parked the Skyline in and gone out. Pretty unmotivated with the cars atm, so I'm looking at investing the disposible income.

Geoff

Found the keys to the ute!

Lol truffles i flew up here from perth this time so its my "daily"/day to day work hack sometimes.

E30_luv

Re-fitted the rear section of the exhaust, cleaned out the lower section of the intake manifold.

andrew12a

have no money to do anything as people who owe me $$$ are "out of work" and "just got hit with a massive bill" can't afford to pay for the work ive done for them and will "hook me up soon" lesson in life.
though i did do some work today. got an s13 that hadnt been started in 2 years going and put a wheelstud in a ke70 lockers

Rileys

im really selective about who i will help out these days.....no more "a mate of a mate" stuff


today i did a bit on the stereo
- new spacers for the front speaker
- installed 2" full ranges on top of the dash

gotta finish it up tomorrow

E30_luv

Let me guess, Code for lock is in Manual, Manual is in glovebox??

GG. BMW

Protius

Skidded it.

Belgarion

It was yesterday, but I wired in the window switches and fixed up a heap of the old wiring.

Slide_thats5

finished my wiring for the micro tech, kicked it ran friend until a friend noticed the hand controller was unplugged and plugged it in, need less Tuesday he is out of pocket for a new computer

Rileys

installed the other speaker in the door, re installed the subs......tuned it all

"Beyond Clay" ed the car so its ready for a good polish through the week

really want to find out whats going on with this engine as i know nothing about it - who is good with SR20's?

tiso88

put shaved boot lid on my s13,
swapped the lock barrels between the old and new boot lids so I only need one key still,
re-routed the wiring from the third brake light off boot lid, and ordered a new window brake light on ebay to put in before I get it pit passed
and installed a DVD player :-)

Brake lights jammed on the other day smelt like the car was having a electrical fire too. Car had been sitting for 3 days so thought I'd figure it out today.

Lucky it was the brake pedal that had to be Adjusted so the brake lights will turn off.. Put all the plastics back in the boot. Sold Subs, amps, capacitors. checked the oil and connected the battery back up.

Joyrid3r

I got to the marked spot and couldn't understand the rest....

Geoff

More ute stuff.

Tried to find the bad ground/dodgy connection thats causing the indocators to only work when they want, and for the full beam headligjts not to work at all (park lights, tail and brake lights all work flawlessly).

Failed.

Rileys

earths going to bare metal? main earth from battery too is always good

jish

Not so much today,

But on Friday I blew up the 4k in my KE70.

I have done what many have tried. So proud!

Protius

Probably the stalk itself Geoff. Had to clean and repair many older toyota stalks when I was doing my apprenticeship.

j.d.m

started work on the soarer, finding rpm signal wire as it has a short in it (soldered it now)
now doing a major service on it.

Joyrid3r

Attempted to fit a tow bar I bought off Ebay, from a slightly different model, won't fit without modifying it so I'll probably put it back on Ebay and try again

andrew12a

im the opposite. I don't do friends cars. unless they have boobs and blowies is possible. my mates expect shit as a favour which they will re-pay.? when in reality, they have no useable skills. complete strangers or someone who hears about me through the grapevine are the ones I go for. providing they ACTUALLY have the money. providing that all goes right, more cash work comes along along with profit and beers. alot of the time i admit, it is a bit of a stab in the dark.

like regarding the post of mine you quoted. deadlines are in place, and if not met. shit will indeed get real :prevoke:

apart from that, I skidded mine all the way home and cracked a beer. cheers
