Well I just dropped the 2 @ Thomas 4 parts to get a clutch, while I was there had the pleasure to meet james/totenkopf, lee came across as a awesome bloke, can't wait to have it back.

Ps iPhones suck to type on

Yeah Lee is awesome mate, he wont let you down. I just got home, stuck around to help get Mark's car sorted. Took it for a spin and his clutch issue is now non-existant. Woot. He had a few dramas with his car. Could never get the clutch to disengage so decided it was about time to pull the transmission to see what was going on. Removed the slave cylinder and a heap of fluid came out from behind the boot, uh hu. Decided we'd remove the transmission anyway to confirm everything was AOK with the clutch. It wasn't. ALOT of oil had made its way into the bellhousing (and subsequently all over the clutch) due to a rather ordinary sealing job around the ARP modification on the oil pan. Lee also picked up that the custom flywheel Mark had had machined didn't have a step on it which it should have. Got the flywheel ground as required and the friction material replaced and she was good to roll again.

Mark decided he'd do a number of other tasks at the same time (fit Moroso oil pan, retorque ARP head studs, fit whiteline rear swaybar) and Lee was kind enough to let him use some of his shop space for a couple of days to accomplish this. Anyway mate, before I left we got Marks car and that Prelude sorted out and moved and popped your car into the shop ready to go.

Anyway, was nice to meet you Nathaniel, I am sure Lee will look after you mate!

the border gt wing? IMO the best gtwing is those cf low mounted ones, looks good on the mr2 cos its low and curvey.

I like no wing, if I got one I like the rev 5 wing, tho I haven't seen the border wing. Anyone have a decent pic?

Simple and subtle.. i like

Very nice.

Looks like mine except in black and different rims. keep it wingless. Its not like we need anymore downforce to wear out the tyres quicker...

So i picked up the car today... was a struggle to pick myself up (Totenkopf saw me, he can vouch) and i am beyond happy. New clutch is win, highly recommend Lee to anyone, so unbelievably happy with the car now and the job he did.

So now its drive time again, will definately be on the next cruise.

And James, i will have to come around and see your beast some time, will probably inspire me to work mine more ;)

jeez im slack, travel+moving makes other things take the backburner for far too long.

had the spoiler mount holes welded, ground and painted, some other minor bodywork junk fixed up (body still not perfect but the boot and rear quarters are now mint and im happy, for now)

had the car for all of 3 minutes today then dropped it off to have a new ecu and the mechanical woes fixed up.

quite upset with myself for leaving it so long, but such is cars
