Oh HAI guys.

FYI the diseasel dromer is just gathering dust but is still here.
The drome is still there and free to use.

The paddock is still here and ready to have another giant dick track cut into it.

Jus sayin...

Legend.

10 would be plenty though.

As long as they are real thick and strong and not like toilet rolls.

The original ones are from paper rolls for GIB board.

But anything around and over 2m would be perfect I guess.

Should bring jousting sticks to Hawke’s boes to practice prodding each other in prep to poke @DodgySam

I have to source some jousting poles for this comp too.

We having a bike jousting comp up here sometime over summer.
Some of you dicks should come up and show the hipsters how its done.

hey dorks.
Moonshiners suck.

I wanna handhold battle/bum squeeze all you kernts.

Fags.

When you need a 3/4-5/8 reducer for the heater hose pipe but all you can find is 3/4-3/4.

You make your own of course.

it currently does a great imitation of a Peterbuilt whistles at the other cars as it drives away.

Every guy at the lights or walking down the road stops and looks expecting to see a deez beast...but no...just my purple turk

good shit @DodgySam + others, need to get another intercooler plumbed in too!

Yeah its on the list of to dos but have been told as long as I stay under 15pound of poost and dont crank up the fuel too much I should be ok. But fear not I am gonna put one in.

My old Flattie had one of these...(although in wagoon form)...We put a real basic surge tank into it and it solved many an issue. it revved out far smoother and had way less issues with starvation.

It was super basic. Just the stock VL pump feeding a surge tank which was just a large diameter bit of pipe with my old GTiR fuel pump inside it. 

He also had issues with finding an LSD for his too.

But my god it was a lush car...and the disco red interior was grand!

So the pics I took of what I came up with next were on my phone...which I dropped in the toilet on Wednesday.

This is all I could recover.

This is what I replaced the intercooler with.

Its rough but I pressure tested it for leaks and its all good and I have also put 2 ports into it for the boost actuator and for the aneroid hose so they are getting accurate readings from the same area at the same time.

But anyway I drove it into the forest today to go for a ride and it made all the right noises and didnt get all hot n bothered.

It still needs a bit of a tune up.

The TPS that controls the slushmatic transmission is all wrong so it doesnt change gears properly/at the right time but it still pulls like a 13yro boy up a hill.

So I will take it to a trans specialist to get it spot on cos Im a bit over it tbh.

It could probably do with a wee bit more fuel but will throw a wideband onto it to see whats what.

Apologies to my neighbour.
You may find an intercooler in one of ur paddocks.
I may have lost my temper last night and thrown my toys...and i was going for distance!

Now after deciding a twin inlet Subaru intercooler was a stupid idea as its FAR too complicated for my small brain.

So I have made a straight pipe from turbo it intake manifold.

So lets try this again tomorrow.

Will report back.

So put hacked fuse in and put battery back in after a good looooong charge and buttoned a few other things up.

Gave her a crank and boom she fired right up.

SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!

Fixed the idle and put in an EGT sensor.

Also had to chop off an old throttle stop as it wasnt letting me get full throttle...like 2000rpm at max foot mashedness.

This bit here...

Replaced the fucked driveshaft hanger bearing and took her for a drive today.

It goes but not well...can hear some MASSIVE boost leaks.

Had a feel around and sure enough you can feel the air escaping through pinholes in the intercooler manifold and it also doesnt help that I didnt use gaskets when putting it together and forgot to tighten up the bolts from the turbo to the intercooler...HERP DURP!!!!

So battery is BACk on charge and will try again tomorrow after work.

Aim is to drive it to work on Tuesday.

This

aquaducks was fun. Need a middle of nowhere location away from the law for maximum fun

 

I look forward to pushing a bike with direct drive most of the way when it decides to not start again!

Yeah...pushing a 20ton deez dromer that has busted its chain is awesome fun!

I would like to go on some kind of point to point ride on drome bike.
**tofftofftofftofftoff**

Like the aquaduct but longer.

Really anything to hang out with some OSers in clouds of tyre/2stroke/diesel smoke really

Was loading a tank onto a truck today and this was sitting ontop of a bunch of other pallets/cargo.

I doubt severly its an original Bugatti as the wheels are 4 stud not knock ons...and who would send an originla Bugatti on the top of a dodgy Sollys transport truck?!

do it

the only rules are no engines from any type of "vehicle" 

Read into that what you will.

Sorry I didnt make it gang.

Between an epic case of the CBFs and my ute having a nasty shit fit on the way there it was generally a crap Sunday for me.

I promise I will organise something else at the drome and dirt track and we will all throw dirt around and try desperately not to lose skin at the drome.

El Jefe... Keep me informed...

my lazy ass is still in bed... Lol

yeah Sunday at the drome.

yep.

We will sort out an alternate weekend for the dirt track racing...one where a bunch of us can all get together and be dicks.

supposed to be ok for the weekend but who knows with the weather this year.
