Bit off topic, but i noticed a decent differance when i put the e30 lip on. it's held up very well even with being so low.

Hmmm i might have to look into using plywood... Think it would be any good for a tarmac rally/targa car vs track?

http://www.frsport.com/Megan-Racing-MR- ... 15421.html Just saw these on the 205 drivers site: http://forum.205gtidrivers.com/index.php?showtopic=137265&hl=&fromsearch=1 and

Pug use the same engines. The 308 did 13XXkm around Aussie on a tank of diesel, so even with the average diesel quality you can still get good returns.

There have been a few peugeot engine written off from bad batch of diesel in Aussie. Not sure if the threads are still on aussiefrogs after the host deleted the forum.

lengthen driveshafts to make sure there is proper engagement? The 205 guys have to run 309 shafts when using 309 lower control arms due to the risk of the shafts popping out.

That was a fun day...

I think i've gotten mixed up, i was reading some regs where it said it had to be road legal to travel back to the start / pits via an alternative route. ignore me please.

Ohakune doesn't need to be road legel i thought? i don't think that bluebird that ran out of gas was road legel....

You wouldn't try and make it road legal to do hillclimb events?

Could be an interesting read about control arm design: http://forum.205gtidrivers.com/index.ph ... opic=98092

Hahaha all good then. My torsion bars where 1k =;-( - i'll be one of the stupid people spending 6k. You can do a cheaper 3 layer by 2 layer + flameproof undies. i've been looking and you can get a 3 layer for $1500 from some places. Otherwise if your not tooo fused on having big name gear there are some good packages done by the nz manufacturers Vortex and Chicane for 2 layer suits. $950 - Chicane - http://www.chicane.co.nz/productdetails ... ryID=11&b= $845 - Vortex - http://vortexracewear.com/default.asp?a ... oduct&id=9 Underwear package is $199 at chicane for their basic white set, $399 for their CarbonX black stuff...

Use a factory alignment setup with the adjustable setup. Wouldn't it make more sense to do it once properly, if your going to be going to that setup later anyways?

Sorry hit reply before i finished posting. I was trying to figure out if you could turn your arms into something like this: I'm trying to find the images of the modified factory arms that are basically the same as the above image it's proving hard to remember where it is. Vectra A: Could you Spherical bearing the ball joint and top bush, and then use a solid alloy bush for the lower mount?

any chance you can run the Vectra C arms? From what i've found: Opel Vectra B: Opel Vectra C: There would be more meat to weld a threaded tube section into the arm and use rose joints / spherical bearings in the arms. Not sure on the metal thickness of the B arms, or if would be ok to weld in a threaded section into the arms... someone here could maybe answer that. Might be able to make something like this in this thread (http://forum.205gtidrivers.com/index.ph ... 5861&st=20) using top hat spacers

What control arms are you running?

I've got some JR racing stuff you can use... It's blue - like your car. Also there is a big argument about air filter oil and it doing bad things to maf's... you car i think is MAP tho....

Took me 9 hours to do the girlfriends 307 properly... but damm did it come out nice...

Yeah i'm going to give the Znoelli discs a try when i replace the current one. Kinda tempted to save up and get their 2 piece kits. Best place i've found for Motul brake fluid is Cycletreads - http://www.cycletreads.co.nz/products/2 ... e_flu.aspx Their RBF600 is $21 (i got it in-store) and the RBF660 is $36

You tried the Carbone Lorraine Brake Pads? The RC6 pads (u = 0.5) i've got matched with the RBF660 was epic at Hampton for the 53 laps i did there. With the more race orientated fluids they tend to be more hygroscopic (absorbs water faster) and need to be flushed out more often. Wet Boiling Point = The minimum temperatures that brake fluids will begin to boil when the brake system contains 3% water by volume of the system. (30ml on most cars) RBF600 has a life of 6-9 months roughly before it reaches that 3% typically. Also might be worth checking if you have any magnesium parts parts in your brakes as a bunch of the top fluids are now saying things like: "Bembo LCF 600+ must not be used in Brake Systems containing magnesium parts."

Rich the ES boys are getting together friday night for a photoshoot - probably going hit one of the beaches also as it's going to be low tide.

Awesome man! Sad to see stuff stolen so close to home....

you can't fix it today? If you need anything picked up from town let me know, i can go grab it and drop it off after work if your in the haven...

I'll see about coming along to this tonight... don't know if i can drive the 205 at the moment.

Not just quaife you can get other brands like x-trax, hollinger, tractive, sadev-tm, maktrak, ricardo, ....
