    Turn up the radio? Since it's pretty easy to remove the back cover, have you tried rechecking the crownwheel/pinion mesh with bearing blue? Does the crownwheel have wear on the faces of the teeth? (kind of a rippley look on the face of the tooth)
  2. Maybe check your voltage while the head untis playing up with a multi meter and see if maybe you have an alternator fault?
  3. I haven't properly read this thread, but 0 compression would have to be as a result of a tight valve lash preventing the valve closing. I knew a guy who rebuilt his engine after a cook up. He has the head shaved,as well as the rest of it. Then he slapped the head back on without resetting the tappets and had no compression. Fail.
  4. I had to go to a B/day piss up, so i couldn't make it. Got on the piss hardies, and was forced to see photos of myself on the piss 16 years ago. OMG, it was painful. On the plus side, I got to get on the piss with filthy one and mrs filthy one who are GC's. Edit, Pics or it didn't happen!
  5. They wont be loving the non Jap made stuff cos they're threatend by the fact that it can run harder than the japanese stuff. I'm put off the 4 and rotors meet by the army of flat peakers who roll that weekend.
  6. You wouldnt have heard it cos you were racing mate, but the out of towners who were comentating the event were talking about your car when you were racing. You did a stout burnout, and they said we don't have the stats on what this car's running in front of us, but I'd say by the look of that it must be running an 8! I lol'd about that one.
  7. Fuck this was off the hook. I cant remembr seeing so many methanol burning drag beasts in one place before, Even the organisation was good. There's nothing like the sweet smell of burning methanol, and super heated VHT with a 7second car doing a fat skid on it. I just wish I could have afforded the $120 race is all. I'm almost tempted to enter for fail and rotors drags.......
  8. Brendan Mcewan. He works at holden in hastings, but the wants to get off the tools, and move into parts.

    Aren't you running a dirty old borg warner type 78 diff? I'm 99.99% sure that they run a fail-tastic crush tube.
  10. A full GC mate of mine who lives in Hawkes bay has applies for this job.) He gags to move to the 03 soon.

    The worst part is that they use a poxy crush spacer on the pinion bearing. Didn't you have this diff trikced up by the diff shop? If so go back and tell them to fix it!
  12. hang on. The drag practise is this friday, the meet is next friday. (1st fri of the month) What time are we meeting?

    Noise on overrun/decel is the pinion bearing ussually. Noise that goes away when you lift your foot is the gearset. Axle bearing noise will be constant throughout.
  14. It's free for racers racing on the sat AFAIK. But yeah, the outrageous fee will hurt the numbers of street cars I think. $5 to watch the practise is a good deal though. maybe we could roll out there for a look after this meet?

  16. Cuold be a B310 sunny diff?
  17. The dirty old Z is a bit of an unknown quantity when it comes to workshop manual data. I'd sugest maybe asking at OZdat. if that data is out there, someone there is bound to have it.
  18. Where are all the other pics? I would have expected a zilloin of them to have been posted by now......
