What did you do to improve your soobie today
Thanks mate, & thanks for showing me how to do it
Also replaced the boot clamp on the rear inner CV. Bit disappointing as it had only just been replaced when I bought the axles but the silly bugger cheaped out & reused the OEM clamps & it started leaking within days

New KYB Struts / shocks and King springs all round, also new air filter (Thanks to Paul at RSR Performance in Rockingham).
Next to be done is Rotors, Brakes and Calipers, also a slight whine in the gearbox might get looked at so might as well get the clutch done at the same time
Cheers

Today I finally corrected my crooked steering wheel that was 2 teeth out on the spline...been like that for months but always too lazy to correct it Also cleaned it, can not believe how much human slime accumulates on a steering wheel. It's actually quite disgusting when you think about it
Will it ever end!?

In our old Pulsar we had the same thing from the previous owner on the sil of the door where they had always rested their arm while driving! It is very gross!Silverbullet wrote:Today I finally corrected my crooked steering wheel that was 2 teeth out on the spline...been like that for months but always too lazy to correct it Also cleaned it, can not believe how much human slime accumulates on a steering wheel.

84 Wagon project
Bolted hand brake cables for liberty rear discs into my 84 wagon.
Removed fly wheel after reading that just using MY large pressure plate and L Series clutch plate won’t last. I need to machine old fly wheel or find an L Series fly wheel. And order an L Series pressure plate. For 5 speed conversion
Does anyone in Brisbane have one {EA82Flywheel} that I could pick up?
Trying to decide if I should redrill top of strut towers to take 3 bolts ‘cause the later ones have a nice bearing instead of grippy bush setup.
Also did a lot of looking and pondering and writing lists of next things to do and solve.
PS Anyone out there got an L Series Fly Wheel?

Got a new exhaust today! 2" from they Y pipe back, but also got a new Y pipe in 1 3/4" because why not, it looks nice and shiny Straight through resonator and muffler as well. It is slightly louder when inside the car than the older stock system, but driving around when you're in the car it sounds almost exactly the same, little disappointed there but if you're actually behind the car it sounds like this (see below) Performance gain? little if any, best part is I can't smell exhaust in the cabin any more! Hopefully it has solved that problem.
*Edit* Note the "phwoar!" in the last seconds of the vid...that's mum complaining of the smell the car is burning a tiny amount of oil and probably also running rich in higher revs due to my piece of wire forcing the secondary open on the carb.
