Yeah I would have to start all over again, but would keep it nice and comfortable still.

 

Tuning still isn't finished but this is where it's currently at. Torque figure is definitely way out but it does show you the torque curve.

Good figures mate.

Foz looks the goods, Shouldn't have much trouble selling this.

I would be keen to see what this baby could get tuned here on a dyno.

Everytime I look at Foz's I want one but then then when I drive this I want to keep it. Such a hard decision.

Cheers mate. When the tune is finished I'm going to run it on a dyno to see what it makes. I think Cameron is keen to run his Foz too.

We should organise a dyno day soon.

 

A mate wants this car as it is so I would start again if I were to buy a Foz.

So I just bought a set of Pedders coilovers for the car because the Buddy Club's are now too firm for my liking.

If anyone wants come cheap coilovers please let me know. Closest offer to $150 can have the Buddy Club's

WHY CAN'T YOU OWN A GEN3!!!!!


As soon as she hands it to you, slowly take of your pants, then, while staring her straight in the eyes rub it against the tip of you penis, while continuing your painfully intense gaze whisper to her;
 
"My eye is watering, this might be a bit hot"

I should just convert to single, right?

Car is back to silver again. Plasti Dip is actually a bitch to get off. It's going to take me weeks to get rid of all the overspray and little pieces left in gaps. It ruined the clear on my bonnet scoop too :(

Seems like everyone makes the mistake of only putting enough coverage down to make a solid colour (which is only 2 - 3 coats). You need 5 or 6 coats to make it easy to peel off. Otherwise as you say, you end up with it too thin, and it breaks as you peel.


MY00 Red RX, a nice daily that was sold off once the B4 became reliable...
MY02 Blue B4, aka 'The Project' - v8 JDM STi engine package and assorted other 'goodies' - Sold, then bought back for parts. Stripped and crushed.
MY03 Blue RX, the newer old daily, pretty well more B4 than RX now... In the process of being converted to the track toy... Watch this space!
MY02 Silver Wagon, H6 conversion, full blue/black leather and almost full black interior to go with it. In process of being stripped and sold off.
MY03 White/Silver H6 Outback, donor car for silver waghoon. Scrapped.
MY97 Silver RX, acquired to become track car, but plans changed. Scrapped.

MY13 BRG, current daily, very nice to drive, small mods to make it even nicer again.

It had about 8-9 coats on it and it peeled off the panels really easily. It's just all the overspray in between panels and other little spots that is a pain to get too.

Pedders coil overs are in and they feel so much better than my old ones.

 

Does anyone know if 06-07 side skirts will bolt straight on?

 

Thanks

The worst part is that it wasn't even power related.

 

Little brother was teaching his girlfriend's older sister how to drive manual in it.
