But you don't bother looking for small parts if you drop them on the lathe somewhere, just start another one :roll: Ne'er a truer word spoken. Sod's law states that you will spot the first part from the corner of your eye within 15 minutes of completing the replacement :roll: I've found parts weeks...

Indeed. Though I wonder why he didn't just turn the crankshaft as one piece eccentrically. I think it would probably be easier than machining that and trying to drill the hole and fit the pin in square. Today for my lathe I'm going to build a "small parts" chuck. My big chuck is very accurate, but i...

Any machinists here game to try something like this?

I'd be game to do all the turning, milling, threading etc. but that 0.5mm drill in steel mortifies me

I recently made some of these in half scale (about 20x25mm) as a keyring puzzle. They aren't too hard to machine- though need to be made accurately to function smoothly and look good (and not reveal too much). They can be done on a lathe/mill or even a lathe/drill press if you consider the order you...

Crna, you're wasting a lot of money with all those plenum spacers and other doodads. Get yourself a good turbo. We're getting the Series 2 L67 (American version of the ecotec 3.8) down into the high 8s in the 1/4 mile, and that's driving the wrong wheels. You can run mild boost and still make easy ...

Yeah good point, screw pulling out the transmission just for that. Typhoon airbox is super cheap and is supposed to add 10rwkw or something. It's as close to a 0 price mod as you'll get. I don't know if I'd bother doing a shift kit- it shifts very smoothly in auto but in perf/manual the shifts are v...

Do you know how many kW/Nm your commonwhore is making? I'd be interested in seeing the cost of those upgrades in terms of the return. nar standard was 167kw, im guessing 190kw thats what the VE's put out standard now and i beat them with a heavier car. would love to get it dyno'd. The best by far w...

All niggling aside, it's been (and I expect it to remain) a reliable car.

I've been in an ex taxi BA with almost a million k's on the clock.. it wasn't perfect, but it still well.
