US$2500... You wouldn't want it to produce more power - Look how flimsy it is!!! Tata could take the scrap metal from a MightyBoy's door & make 3 of those with it! :? Something tells me that we won't see them here any time soon - I don't doubt for a second that the regulators & heads of loca...

As a REALLY dodgy patch job, you can use sikaflex or similar polyurethane sealant to fill the voids in the mount. It's not the best way, but it's a temporary solution which should get you by.

Blue Arsed Fly pics - Shoddy quality (56K WARNING!!)

Ahh, the joys of a camera phone. And taking photos at night. :evil: All because I didn't realise my battery charger on the GOOD camera had failed. Anyway, I hope these will give an indication of how it looks at least - Ignoring the fact that I suck at photography & that I discovered that my phon...

Theory of 4? Yeah right. More like the theory of 84. Speak to the person who's just done a complete mechanical/suspension/driveline rebuild on an Alfa. 84 Times the cost times the time the amount of nuts/bolts/washers you'll have left over at the end of it the amount of times you'll have wished to h...

I've decided to go with the standard SA springs with SA Swift struts, and use a 1.5 inch lowering blocks for the rear with some new shockies for the rear too. Be aware that not all SA swift struts are made equal. My MB looks like a monster truck at the moment after I fitted up SA GTI struts onto it

Today's update: Still not running, but it's well on it's way there. Still a little bit of tweaking & tidying with the suspension to do before I sit down & get serious with finishing the motor work. You'll notice with the ride height though, that with the GA hubs/brakes & GTi struts, that...

Yeah, me too. General rule is to drill out the hole slightly to accept the next largest bolt. That way, the thinest part of the offset bolt is no thinner than standard. That way it won't break when driving like a dickhead & accidently understeer into the gutter... :roll:

Have a chat to a decent suspension person, they should be able to supply a bolt with an offset section in it to adjust the camber. I think I might still have one kicking around in one of the 44's of nuts & bolts that i've got here - I'll have a rummage & see if I can find it & take a pic...

Don't we all? :wink:

Brayden, is it "Suzuki only", or can other marques join up for the day? Seeing as I doubt i'll have a trackable Suzi, but I have a perfectly good Alfa sitting here, ready & waiting to leak oil all over the track :D

If you cut through Branxton/Cessnock, it shouldn't take more than about 5.5 hours (Sydney traffic pending, of course :wink: )

EOI: '86 MB - G10a project

I was planning on having this up & running soon, but i've got the bill for the blown engine in my other car, combined with the fact that the missus has been in hospital, so i'm now flat broke & unable to continue this project quickly. Hence, I thought i'd gauge other's response & see if ...

"Toy Shop" is a little more expensive than the others, but their gear is generally of better quality & alot cleaner. If nothing else, I found them to be the most willing to get wierd stuff imported for me.
