Greg,
there is no BP at Berowa.
You can have a choice of:
SHELL, MOBIL, CALTEX.
???
btw. theres a story there is a dyno day planned on saturday (Commonwhores) at the CALTEX.
Unfortunately, apparently the cops know about it and plan to raid it an defect everone etc.

People,

There seems to be a general inability to make this day and I have just become one of them. Some things have just come up which means I am going to be otherwise disposed tommorrow.

Sorry to do this to those that said they would come and also given I was organising it but I simply am not going to be able to make it.

There is a BP at berowra, was a BP now is a B(erowra) P(etrolium) haha

Mobil is the best bet, is right on the highway and has lots of parking.

Looks like that 180sx was ready to be thrashed by the choice of rear wheels.

Not wrong,
Is that a toyota Quad Cam, 4L V8??

My friends been telling me to put that engine in my Starion for years But it'd make a huge weight distribution problem and totally destroy the handling of both the Starion and the 180SX pictured.
For a Drag Car Though. . . . . . . .......

Yes, quad cam alloy V8 :luv
I dunno, they're fairly light (but obviously not as light as a turbo 4) but what you gained in weight, you would make up for in grunt.

alloy v8 vs iron block 4

thats sitting on shitty springs and struts and it wasnt sagging at all

owner says there was no real difference.

oh, fully engineered too

I was going to turn up, but a puddle of green fluid under the car had me thinking i would be pushing my luck. I got smart and paid to have the w/plugs replaced, no more puddles.
