Looks like it's new radiator time again. leaking both sides

Just replaced front shocks, rack and high pressure line last month. So the first rack lasted just over 200,000kms before completely letting go with a visable line of oil to the ground. It's never ever nice to see this on any car. Car needs a wheel alignment as it's a bit bump steery now.

To the low life scum that tried to take my VN to night from my driveway - #### you!!.

Cop will do a dusting shortly for prints. They have busted the door handle off and buggered the pain on the door - again. *sigh*

Added a third blue LED to the climate screen today. Fills that dead spot at the top in the middle of the LCD screen. Also converted a CC unit to white to see how it looked at night with 3 LED's. The photo was 100% fail with no writing on the screen at all - just a white blob

In real life it looks OK with a good even light from the LED's and you can see 3 little hot spots at the top of the screen.

Had my own flood with the passengers side A/C drain blocked (gee it stinks). I hooked it out with my fingers to clean it out. It looks like it worked. I took the car for a 250 km drive today with out any more water. Nice warm day so the carpet has almost dried out.

Replacing the LH ball joint has made a huge differrence to the "cluncky" front end. It would rattle a little bit when going over rough road. Not any more.

3 more weeks and the sedan comes off the road

Probably end up getting stripped for parts *sigh*

**Astranomical** · 03-04-2011, 08:16 PM

**88GreenVN** · 03-04-2011, 08:27 PM

Very depressed at the moment.

Built a corrector box for the speedo today. (from Jaycar) took a little while but the kit had all the parts and the solder went OK. Do a photo tomorrow.

For some reason the L3 cluster with the 16"x225 tyres have the speedo about 5-6 k's out at 60 and and 9-10 k's out at 100kph. The corector box should dial out the error using a GPS.

**Bz Kn33z** · 17-06-2011, 04:59 AM

How much was the Jaycar mate, where do you get them from, very keen because i have 3.9s haha and dunno what the hell i am doing.

What height are the 16s

**88GreenVN** · 17-06-2011, 08:48 AM

The kit was $61 including $7 postage.

**88GreenVN** · 08-10-2011, 05:10 PM

Thread can be closed - car sold for $2,150.

I'll be cracking the sads for a while. I know how Phreddy feels now.

**Morton** · 09-10-2011, 12:09 AM

*hugs*

any good opportunities on the horizon?

**Astranomical** · 11-10-2011, 11:21 AM

Shame...I loved this car. Oh well, onward and upward from here.

Hope the new owner takes as good care of her as you did.

**spirto** · 11-10-2011, 01:24 PM
