This sounds like it's going to turn out to be one excellent day!
Check out my band at www.battlecircus.com
Doubt I'll be able to make it unfortunately Probably going to be working again at this rate...
is this on saturday or sunday?? and what time will this be happening??
Sunday and leave Botany say around 10-11ish??
For those who don't want to meet up at Botany, we could pick you up on at the either at Drury BP or the Bombay one.
sorry guys love the idea, but can't bring my car out to play until mid-may ish, sounds like it'll be a good day tho, remember lots of pics and tutorials for the members section
Gly, definately sunday, I'm working on saturday. You are welcome to turn up and any time you like, how about you turn up at sometime around 11, we can work for a few hours, have lunch, then work until we all get hungry again and have a big bbq at the end
Kenneth picked up some flexible aluminium 5" tubing today so some of you might have to ask him very nicely if you can use some for your own cars.
Dickytim, we'll miss you and your technical knowledge, what are you doing to your car in the mean time?
I will ask tomorrow about how much a 2400mmx1200mm sheet of aluminium will cost, it probably only needs to be 2 or 3mm thick. Gly, do you think you will be able to hook us up with some 90 degree bends? Do we have accurate numbers yet for the amount of people who want a cold air box?
oh oh oh me me meeee!!!! ...I want first dips in the box!
so thats one very excited person so far for a cold air box
so what type of sh!t would i need to have to move my battery into the boot? also whats the best pod filter to put in to replace the standard one?
mmmmm boxxxxxxxxOriginally Posted by bradc
I'd recommend K and N cos they're washable.Originally Posted by ShadyNZer
sorry, i bought my 90 degree bends a long time ago off TM.
but an egineering shop should have them for those that want them..
im busy for the rest of the week so cant even look into getting a couple.
to move battery to the boot...
about 5m-6m of 4ga cable or larger (or welding cable),
a battery box, and a few bolts,
some solder and some new battery terminals,
a 150amp curcuit breaker (optional)

ok found a email addy for the elbows,
just checking if he has anymore... and if he can get them to us by friday.
everyone wanting to filter mods using a 3" pod adapter??
i can also get cheapish 3" silicone joiners (OBX BRAND) if anyone needs them
Depends what you want to do with it, in the legnum it took 6meters plus some for the ground to run to the boot (out the guard and down the passengers side), but i guess you could get away with less. Then maybe a decent fuse, and a plastic battery box, and a connector.Originally Posted by ShadyNZer
I was able to use the factory battery tray, but i don't know much about the boot space in the galant.
The cable is pretty expensive from repco, about $12 a meter from memory so you might want to look elsewhere, $25 for a box if you need one, and a fuse???

shady, you would need 0 gauge cable, a fuse, and possibly metal for mounting the battery in the spare wheel well, or a battery box like what Uc and Gly have.
If we run a cold air feed up to your filter then you can basically use whatever you want, I think they are all similar.
Gly, those 3" hose adapters would be a good idea, we need to get numbers first on how many people want to do it.
also brad, what tools do you have,
we'll need cutting tools for boxes
I had a measure a while back, and the piece that connects the engine side to the MAF was slightly larger than 3" ID, iv been talking to a guy on trademe who sells a similar brand for about $20, straight joiner 3+1/8".Originally Posted by bradc
I don't know if thats what youre talking about, or if i measured wrong, but i think thats what is needed if your gonna move the MAF?
I'll bring some hole saws, and a jigsaw and my regular tools, but an air hacksaw would be choice.
I have some fairly heavy duty cutters that will cut through aluminium easily, as well as a variety of angle grinders and stuff like that too. I doubt we'll have much of a problem with tools, but if there is anything in particular you'd like to bring along it might be an idea to bring it, a lot of the tools are in a container, so we might have to go and search for some of them
I think we might not need to move the maf too far forward if at all, but we will need a 90 degree bend coming out from the maf, and the joiner for it as well.
What on earth is an air hacksaw?
