Holden molestation

It very definitely had vacuum leaks was showing up in Logs on tunerpro and this was easiest way of getting rid of it as it was already made up for when I take my car for WOF'S. 

No more major vacuum leak but im not sold on it running better than before.

It relies on the air box that is now missing will find a solution but im not fussed at the moment

Oh it makes a difference. Just a negative one.

Put the lower airbox and ducting  back in, will direct some cooler air towards it.

I honestly despise the handbrake setup I spent so long messing with mine after doing big brakes.

Wasn’t actually that bad i just took my rotor off adjusted it but the shoe actually shifts to the side so u just push it back then out the caliper in and boom was pretty easy

Ive got to do my rears soon I dont actually think they have ever worked properly entire time I've owned it.

[zach_munce]

For some reason i have an abundance of keys

They work well once adjusted for a small period of time, the shoes are a pain in the ass to get on and off. And the adjuster can fit in backwards and half work as I discovered when I put one in backwards and you will get limited holding ability and it will still adjust manually. I spent way too long working out why it would kind of hold one side but not enough to torque up the wheel nuts!

Probably because once the battery goes flat you have to get an entire new remote as the battery is soldered in.

All the remotes work which is odd i seem to just have heaps of keys for no apparent reason, im glad i have my glove box keys so i can lock my tyre shine away from dad

May as well buy an ignition barrel kit with your next savings, have done dozens of those over the years.

And they never break on a day where the weather is good and you have nothing planned.

Poppa shouted me years rego as a late Christmas present so thats awesome 

[zach_munce]

Tried to tidy my paint up a bit now ive got water stains and dried soap and everything in between so gave up then my mate showed up in his silvia things mint

[zach_munce]

Got both the bike and car out today think uncle rodney wants to visit the bike soon tho

[zach_munce]

Got my other pair of chromes stripped some nutta has taken a angle grinder to the bead so need to sort that, chucked my pair with tyres one not sure whos smart idea it was to put 215 45s on a 8.5 wheel🤔. Will try sort 2 sets of 245 45 17s for me and dad now that he has rohs. 

[zach_munce]

Would like to try stuff 255 30s under the ass of it as my 245 40s have abt a 10 coin worth of clearance 

[zach_munce]

Still decent tread happy to let dad relocate the rubber to his guards 

[zach_munce]

Some guy is trying to sell me this, my favourite spec holden by far 177kms ls1 vx calais with all the stuff id do to it. He wants 18k sadly i am about 18k short

Mate, what are you doing? At that price I would be knocking down the doors of the nearest money lender and buying that fine specimen right away. There's no way you could get more car for your money and to top it off that is an appreciating classic. You couldn't possibly go wrong.

Just imagine the pure joy you will get from the big V8 burbling away at traffic lights.

[zach_munce]

I wish i could get a loan but im 16 so money lender is dad ltd and we both have poor spending habits
