  1. The wurth stuff if great general purpose cleaner. From cuts to gasket faces, it even can be used to remove brake dust!
  2. Fucking brakecleaner for everything chap.
  3. At least you put yours under a tarp. You have seen my place haha.
  4. About 11 weeks at the rate you are going!
  5. Cheers for that @Early jap nuter, What i mean is, i will ring whoever my supplier is that deals with airplex, and let them chase it up for me. Then i can get it charged to work. Actually, i have a vague memory of airplex being in the supplier list anyway, would be from way back before work joined the capricorn group.
  6. @tortron i never even thought to buy new.... Looks like 2 new ones for xmas. Will give them a ring tomorrow and see what the stock/wait time is. Cheers. Ok team. More disctraction ideas to delay having to do any usefull rust work.
  7. Have been looking at the 12v all in one units allready... Has a monsoon already but i have been looking for a passengers one, for 21 years, and it is a sedan so does that give it a pass for the towbar?
  8. Center seatbelt has arrived from aussie, even has the missing buckle for the side belt! So that is now the seatbelt drama over. Full matching set. Should have welded seat brackets over the weekend but manflu.
  9. Scope creep options?...
  10. Auto tensioner doesn't have a lockout hole you can slide a pinpunch/bolt in to hold it wide open?
  11. Channeling some Vanilla Ice with my front speaker choice. 'And the vega' are pumpin!' Only 4x6 but still
  12. Twas a joke man, i wont even put a barra in my falcon. Triple dellortos would be cool, but what about triple SUs?
  13. I dont know how the clutch pedal attaches on a starion, but yeah pretty much. Wouldn't work in my case as the pedal shaft everything swings on is longer for manual than auto. And since the brake pedal hangs off of it, it can't be changed either. Out of curiosity, does the starion clutch pedal have its own seperate mounts? Sorry for thread stealing @tomble.
  14. Any change to the braking system requires cert. Including changing the brake pedal to a skinny one instead of fat auto pad. Even if using factory parts. It is not the pedal setup the car left the factory with. Wof audit man used our workshop as a neutral zone to go over a vehicle that someone had flagged, owner tried explaining he was using the loophole of using factory parts. Audit guy asks if the brake pedal is the one that specific car left the factory with, owner says nah i swapped that too as the original was too wide. No loophole exists. Even my XC, don't even have to change the pedal box, just slide out the shaft the pedals hang on, and slide the manual pedals on. Still a fail due to brake pedal itself being changed. Not trying to go on or be a dick about it, just don't want anyone getting caught out. A bit shit when all things are equal, but rules are rules.
