HA count me in for the aus tour aswell, I discovered something very nice about australia last weekend, There's festival in my hometown Apeldoorn called Jazz in the Woods, every year. Last weekend we went there to look at some bands and have a few beers, I encoutered the best dixiland combo...

Buy the cheapest possible lathe you can find, littlemachineshop items or such, and buy a set of toolbits with it, you can do it yourself. it's not black magic 'n all. second hand mig or tig welder also works wonders on these. something like this will see you sorted for making parts like Ed's...

Exactly the reason I bought one Zuffen. the idea is that I can tell my girlfriend that "the more parts I make the cheaper it gets" hihihihi. there will probably be much more to be turned up before the engine runs. @Justin, I was a little skeptical at first to, but when you calculate all...

Yep it's a: 1992, Generation 1, 1uzfe engine, from a UK lexus LS400. Grtz Thomas

Hey jibby, concensus over here in europe is that we hope the credit card culture is not going to backfire on the USA sometime soon, world economy would get a serious dent. on the down under thingy. take a look at a globe. grtz Thomas

Nice piece of kit! begs for a set of cams, do you plan to run them open or will there be an airbox over the trumpets? Pipercross makes nice filters to suit paired webbers, 2 of those should look pretty good, they have uncut plates so you can make them fit. if you don't like foam, I think K$N...

Had some good playtime in the garage making fiddly parts to build up the intercooler system. The idea is to place the finned core inside a tube, have the airflow over/inbetween the finns and the tube wall, and have coolant flow through the lentghwise holes in the core. the only thing that...

I do agree that a porsche can probably build to be stronger than the Cima one, but you cannot possibly get a g50 in the technical area where a Cima is. we're talking a Fully synchronised helical geared, REAL SEQUENTIAL (not some wannabe flipper thingy) counting 6 gears build to handle upto...

Contact Wanni albertini, he had 2 boxes a T 756 H - 6 speed H patern and the same but sequential on spare a few moths back for prices that would put a well build G50 in the naughty corner. (ie less money twice as strong) they where in the 10K euro region and 11K for the sequential...

had just missed the page on taxes, Jibby if the ausie system is of whack as you call it, we europeans and expecially dutch must completly out of our minds. example. a new car costs $10.000 euro of toyota we have to pay 45% BPM tax over the catalogue price of the car just to get it...

yes "Summer sun Turns" and " and Winter sun Turns" on these 2 days. I believe it where the ancient germans that had the dark and light season which began and ended on the 21st of june and 21 of december. there's also gatherings at stonehenge and aveburry on these dates. funny thing is not only...

@xr8tt, Cool, I have exactly the same picture on my computer at home, white Mercedes Sprinter, only ours says NOB Technicolor. IGP sattelite uplink with auto tracker dish, in the snow, only in holland! I gues making radio is the same everywhere in the world, i'd preffer the sunny early...

Damn right you are :biglaugh: . Wow didn't know that. but aboriginals are travelers right? sorta nomads so not in on place they call "home", as the hill at siant christophe you can see the evidence of the canyon getting deeper through the years by the river, the higher you climb the roque the...

Hey stormtrooper, wasn't really looking for a job, perfectly happy with the studios and the people I work with right now, was more less fisshing for an excuse to maybe set a plan of moving out of europe. anyway about the brittish and the USA, don't forget that New York used to be New...

This is really a brilliant thread to read! all that talk about cars pfff, good to know how other countrys are. always interesting to read about this stuff. the joke about the tasmanian vrigin, plain brilliance humor wise, in europe we have that too, but seems to be on a more serious note...

Jake, that's primarily due to longer primaries, different silencers than any flatplane you know, lack of rpm. I think if you'd take a +/-8000 rpm 1uz red line, have decent silencers ie NON cherrybomb/usa style but chamber dampers (don't know in english) alla ferrari lambo audi, and can...

5550hp seems a bit steep. a dozen m112's might do the trick.... :) I suppose you could very easily go over 580 givven your engine can take the load, twin rotrex chargers would be the best of both worlds, think koenigsegg power curves, 800bhp+ upto 1000bhp+ on bio fuel. by my knowledge noone...

what about this method: "honey can you please hold this wire for a moment" sure sounds better than the: "sticking your ,willy, into a 85.000volt Facet motorsport coilpack" option. gettin a bit maso now sideshow!:scared1: grtz Thomas

I'd say try with you finger. If you get airborn, they're allright!:alcoholic: sorry couldn't resist grtz Thomas

you mean the dashgauge sensor? or the ECU's one. I all of a sudden can't remember if i took the ecu sensor out of my engine, and if so from which of the thousand holes? grtz Thomas
