Whats the brake fluid like ? Could have crap floating in it acting like a valve. Otherwise be looking at the master cylinder

Geelong ?? Sorry, never really went for VFL all that much. But if your going on about the rugby, us aussies are sulking at the moment. Getting beaten by a bunch of mexicans, ppffff, i can't believe it Two more games, sonny, two more

Yep, just the same

If the same thing happened to one of my kids i'd be doing the same thing. But its really up to you what you want to do, and if you stay start pressuring Macca's on good security. You've got the footage to show why its needed.......

Thats some crazy shit. I still remember breaking down one night near there about 2.5 years ago. Wound up sleeping in the car for the night and only about 2 months back found out about the gangs that roam the streets at night around there...... :(

Spotted this today while we were at Macca's Doing a of lapping, i think the dudes were trying to pick up chicks or something :(

Nice score I've heard the same thing about the old Nimbus motor

What it looks like Usually bolted to the firewall close to the manifold.

Could be an air leak between the turbo and head somewhere. I'd also be having a look at the hose to the map sensor. My old 4age had something similar and it was a hole in the hose to the map sensor. Idling was fine but when i gave it a bit it'd run rough etc

The only contradiction i have is that my thing (mid model '55) is up on chocks, and its been like that now for almost 8-9 months with only pointless little things being done to it and bought for it, most likely never to touch the road again and yet i'm interested in fitting the center console from the '70 in it So, yeah go figure

Forgotten how many times it took to get my learner's which i just sat on it for a few years till was about 21-22. Till i got my own car and by that time we had moved out to the country side and i started driving the back roads on my own and to and from Cooroy. Three or four lessons with an instructor, had the test at Noosa (why i'm saying this is cause at the time Noosa was more or less just an oversized rural town, now its almost a major city). And got my P's on the first go.

Not a bad tip. Going to have to remember that one :)

Maybe i kept me profile a bit too low around town

Mexicans ?!? I still think, mexi-can't's I was too busy looking for car porn to watch the game Besides two more games, man, two more. Us aussies will win at least one of them

Now i know where my tax money is going :)

:) :y:

:y: Ho Ho Ho its the 30 second man They have clinics for your problem :)

Some of the twinkys had side skirts, so you could see about hunting one of them down. The front bar from the ae92 fits without too much trouble. As a side note - that rubber roundabout near the high school is goofy but fun in a way as your leaving town. Ever remember seeing this hunk of junk running around town ? http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?s...c=15445&hl=

I see the Mexi-Can'ts are at it again :)

Is the both doing it or just one ? If its both, i'd be looking at the master cylinder. If its just one, i'd be more then just putting a kit through the calipers Hows the pads ? As i found out with my old seca when the pads had worn down a fair bit (about half a mill from the metal) was that one caliper would stick

I could believe it

Or while being the passenger in his car start playing a game on his phone and after a bit throw it out the window. When he asks why you did it "I lost the game....... so out it went. Just like my badge." Crazy stuff :yes:

The mains are 50mm The crank pins (conrod journals) are 42mm

You sure your not leaving puddles of oil around the place ? A stuffed gasket. Like the rear seal on the block is gone. Could be one reason. Another is to ask a mechanic to do a "leak-down test". Basically an air compressor is hooked up to a cylinder and then the said cylinder is compressed with air (bit like a compression tester), if there's a leak somewhere it'll be noticed by either the air escaping from somewhere and/or from the gauges on the air compressor.

Getting my eldest kid to eat her veggies. She'd sooner just sit, cry and makes out that her whole world is caving in around her. edit - No, wait, its just the same thing even if we ask her to do something. EG: she spills some of her drink and we ask her to clean it up. No she'll just stand there, cry, screams etc about the whole thing making out that the sky is falling down on her
