BA: . I wish I could help others more than I Do.
You have helped ppl more than you think man, you are one of the most selfless ppl I have met and so willing to help ppl out with out any questions asked. That is why so many ppl are willing to help you now.
I agree BA you are a great bloke who always seems happy to help.
I wish I was more helpful but unfortunately my mechanical skills are average compared to others on this forum
I don't understand people saying BA is a good bloke he is a cock.

I think I may go a full DTS kit... I like the idea of owning something new for once and both Mat and George suggested I go this way.
The intercooler will wait as I will be out of funds for sure.
The other question is gauges .. what ones are good and what do you need, Boost and temps is it?
Boost and pyro are essential.
Any good ones to get????Quote:

Oh and they all came with fitting kits so I didnt need anything else.
I run a DTS kit on my GQ and reckon its a great solid kit mate, I'd be keen to maybe make a change now if funds permitted chasing bigger power but that's being a pig mate, the DTS kit is great!
On my GQ I have fitted a pyro, Boost, water temp and Oil Pressure gauge.
Jonathan one step at a time mate, seriously lol lets get the motor in and running then look at accessories!!!!
You gotta chill out a bit...
Everyone stop feeding him information, can't you see its dangerous !? Lol
I forgot to say i prefer my autometer 2 5/8" gauges but i like Perin gauges aswell
What the hell you mean chill out.... I am not buying anything just asking questions......... I know you are a control freak George but I am allowed to ask questions.
I just be back in my box then shall I..... freaking LOL !!!!!!!!!!!
Whow......
I think someone has sand in there vagina.........
Anywho... In all seriousness does the huge price difference mean a better gauge.
I bought an eBay egt 52mm gauge with fitting kit for like $40..
Have tested it in hot water and it works well.
Digital read out with secondary voltage reading to..
So is $150 each really necessary or is this one of those things which you pay for a name??
While I was ringing for prices for Nic I got a price for a turbo and intercooler setup and was quoted $1600 for the lot?
Not sure on what I get for that.. also I rang the trucking bloke about the delivery time for tomorrow and he told me Thursday.... Fwarking doodle dogs !!!!!

This has been re listed 2 times.
Yes I have seen it and is in my watch list... George told me off for looking at it... I am not allowed to do anything without George telling me what to do... It's like having 2 wifes???
If you had to choose, which one????Quote:

Went to buy the clocks today and did not realise there are 2 different types so have to wait until the engine arrives so I can take a pic of the loom for the guy I am getting my cluster through.
Also forgot to mention that I bought a compression tester for diesels and if others need to use them they may.
Feeling a little stressed but that is normal with this sort of thing.
I kind of exited stress though. I would be wetting myself with exitement right now.
Still no engine... delayed another day.
Caught up with daz and picked up few bits and bobs.. thanks daz/Gary.
Scored a radiator tonight also..
Are you nervous?Quote:
