just apply a bit too much acceleration on some wet grass and find out for yourself. That's not really a good way to find out , as most cars with IRS have a tendancy to spin both wheels if there is little traction on both wheels. Better to find a private piece of bitumen , turn the wheel full lock a...

It's been a while since I did anything significant to my staz , so here's the progress in the last few months - LSD was fitted about 5 weeks ago , makes a HUGE difference to the drivability of the car : http://users.bigpond.net.au/powerslavelee/lsd.jpg I had been fucking around with the idea of a sl...

Bartley's hill is in albion . It's a well hidden lookout (not well known in Brisbane , so it's never busy) . Just off kingsford smith drv. Easy access and fair for all in Brisbane as it's central.

Shit , TD05 , 1 hour ?? wtf in Brizzie R U ??? Are you talking about Bartley's lookout or Jindalee ????

Don't forget to remove the Vacuum line from the advance actuator and block it.

Ok mate. There are 2 ways for a flutter sound. First is to remove the BOV and run high boost. Air pushed back toward the turbo will be disturbed as it flows back and make a fluttering noise. Second is a Super Sequential Valve which makes more of a flutter noise than a BOV PSSSSST noise. Type 3 valv...

Well you sorta do , it's a 4-door GTO , runs the Gen3 LS1 350 chev engine.

There is one temporary solution that has worked well for me. Mine was that bad that oil squirted out from under the oil cap (new oil cap too) , and under the 2 grommets holding the tappet cover. 1 : Put a spring on the dipstick to keep it in place. 2 : Remove the hose going from the charcoal caniste...

Check the switch on the dash , it's a dual pole , dual throw switch.

A cracked exhaust manifold will also cause this sound.
