**Euroboost** · 22-08-10, 09:16 AM

I can't remember, can your harness be looped around the cage or just mounted with the eye bolts?

Either is fine.

The harnesses are Willans 3in, with an expiry date of 2006. ... does that mean they have +5 or +10 on them?

**HoonBoy** · 22-08-10, 10:52 AM

+5, so 1 year left on them.

I know that, I was asking about the ones he's got because they were orginally meant for an uncaged roadcar and had the eyebolt clips, can't remember if I fitted the clips or if they came like it. Not that it really matters because Damo should still have all the eye bolts for it.
Coming to think about it, how big a hit did the RX7 have again? Is it worth reusing the harness after the shunt, especially considering their age?

Epic win!

**msmola2002** · 22-08-10, 01:55 PM

Oh, and your place looks like mine in oz before I left, but with mazdas instead of bavarian shitters and bikes

**Jay_G** · 22-08-10, 04:48 PM

LOL at the front yard, datto looks the goods.

**HoonBoy** · 22-08-10, 07:10 PM

Sticking with the 14's or moving to 15's to get tyres easier?

**Coffin** · 22-08-10, 09:22 PM

have sourced some 14's second hand so far ..... will look at options later

this the front yard normally (sans trailer)

**Swill** · 22-08-10, 09:41 PM

Get your self a datrally manifold and a set of webers. While those SU's are the better round tops there still a shitful thing to rally with

**Coffin** · 22-08-10, 09:52 PM

got a few things to tidy up to get it rally ready first and learn where the switch gear is and see what all the switches actually do

, but yes, webers are on the list. .... whats the going rate for them?

came with an r180 lsd centre only .... but tim510 said to sell it as it doesnt have something or rather with it? something to do with axles? .. i was 1/2 drunk at the time

**MRGREATWALLMAN** · 22-08-10, 10:10 PM

very nice. should be a fun thing to punt around!

+1 webers.. you'll shit a brick when you see how much people are paying for them

**Coffin** · 22-08-10, 10:19 PM

Mr mopar, prob not, i'm used to what rotor guys ask for a single 48/51

**KanaL** · 22-08-10, 11:14 PM

looks tops coffin!

laughing pretty hard at your carpark tho.

I may still have a Redline manifold sitting around here somewhere. I just sold the webers I had so can't really help you there. I wish I still had my 1600 running

**rowdytoot** · 23-08-10, 09:13 AM

had a look @ this last night- it's a decent bit of gear that needs a bit of a tidy up in places, but not much more than that to be rallyable

looking forward to having a quick drive tomorrow night

**Chase Rockwell** · 23-08-10, 09:22 AM

Logbooked?

**itsnotagsr** · 23-08-10, 09:24 AM

Nice car.

Your neighbours must love you with all those cars in the front yard!

**rowdytoot** · 23-08-10, 10:28 AM

nope. Damo is dropped in to see JW tomorrow with the car to go over what little bits and pieces need sorting for the logbook inspection- will just be little stuff I reckon- like a drain for the fuel filler in the boot, battery clamp, bit of a tidy up here and there, rear shocks, some roll cage padding etc.

I seem to remember there being some houses that looked worse than that along that stretch of road.

A few doors up and off to the right a fellow used to have 2 mini's under tarps on the front yard.

**Coffin** · 23-08-10, 03:53 PM

I just love the tyre stack in front of the garage pillar

Dropping the car past JW tomorrow sometime, got a battery clamp and a UVP (along with a parking ticket).

Need to sort out the throttle cable thing, as apparently datto's normally used linkages?

**farmsci** · 23-08-10, 04:10 PM

best bit is you can't even see ALL the cars in that pic too!

**tim510** · 23-08-10, 04:12 PM

coffin,

subaru centre is useless without the subaru inputs, which are rare as rocking horse shit.

lock what you have dude!

**Tripper** · 23-08-10, 04:21 PM

a few questions
how many cars in total ?
how many cars are currently drivable ?
how many cars currently have rego and are drivable ?

**Coffin** · 23-08-10, 04:34 PM

13 cars total
7 drivable, 6 with rego

Tim, yer thats it, I couldnt remember what you were saying exactly the other nite, I'd had a few canadian clubs. ... if they were sourced, what kind of price would they be? ... I'm not really keen on locking the diff just yet. ... I have enough trouble with understeer and gutters, let alone being on a lot more dirt
