so long as you don't get under my wheels hehe...:P

Yeh, good score mate. How many kms? what have you got planned for the suspension? welcome to the club too

she was almost that bad before - it turns out the issue was the exhaust valves on cyl 3 weren't opening at all, so byt the end of it, it was a 3 cyl. and it was using close to 11L/100....it was pretty bad

Oh, how nice it is to have a car that purrs...and accelerates...and sips fuel...

I'll tell you tomorrow night...damn, I wish I could drive it now...

D is the charcole canister.... the others...not too sure...where to the wires lead on c? is f on a water outlet? if it is, it'd be a water temp sender

good to hear man. I get it back tomorrow - kept the original head, just got the exhaust valve on cyl 3 re-shimmed. All good for the weekend - I' stoked.

Okay, time for an update. Finally got around to painting the strut brace they other week, so now it looks a classy gloss black. Secondly, its at the doctors this week, to get its head checked (I would do it myself, but lack of time + lack of garage means I've got no chance). if it just needs re-shimming, I'll have it back on monday. If it needs more terminal work, soo hoping to have it back for the cruise. If not, I might have to either catch a lift, or suck up to mum to let me use her car...

gee, that johno fellow is a good egg, eh?

Ok people, I've booked lunch in for 12.30 now at the Grand Hotel in Healesville. Seems to be the onyl pub with counter meals in the town, but hey, pub meals are alright. at the moment, its booked for 15, but numbers can be updated later on in the week... Cheers folks Andrew

hey dave, if u swing by glenferrie - i'll head that way...i'm keen on going for once too...

i take it that your brakes are almost sorted sonya?

meh...pretty average, but hey, all over now...

keep in mind, the current Lotus Exige runs a supercharged 2zzge as standard equipment on one of there models - any reasearch done into what rods/pistons are run in this engine?

sweet, good to hear mate - keep us posted

cheers mate...yeh, not much interest atm, but eh...wasn't given much time to organise from the higher-ups, but we'll see how it goes, eh

You could always join toymods aswell - but doesn't having club reg limit you to only their official cruise days?

EBAY - i think the sotre name is lilavadee...

damn straight - next time - race for the first one, then have fun on the last 2, hehe. Great pix though.
