Lifters were getting a bit noisy, so I got a Head and Cam Package done by - Sonny @ Autowerks Automotive.

Higgins Heads
Stage 2 Cam
Replaced lifters, springs, timing chain, oil pump, water pump etc.

Bit of a freshen up to get a few more years out of her.

Ready for Summernats 2020 - New Black Badges, and New Senator Roof Spoiler

(Bushfire smoke was so thick)

First day of the Nats, and about 400 metres from the entrance the radiator split. Left me stranded on Northbourne Ave.

Shattered, but a good friend lent me a car, and we managed to get someone to install a new radiator while the family and I went to watch the burnouts.

Picked her up, and next thing it is overheating again. Found the thermo plan plug had melted. Looks like it has been shorting for some time.

Got it fixed up, and back on the road again.

Ordered some Kindig IT Customs - Exhaust Cutouts

Exhaust Cutouts

BACKORDERED 1 WEEK FROM PURCHASE Here's how they work: Step 1) Enjoy your normal exhaust while drivingStep 2) Get ready to impress onlookers and hatersStep 3) Press switch to activate cutouts to "open" modeStep 4) Perform gigantic burnout or warp-like accelerationStep 5) Press switch to close...

Got the exhaust shop to install, and then my friends at Belrose Auto Care helped wire them up.

Have to be careful where you use them. They are obscene when you open them up.

You can open them in increments which is good.

Got rid of the Alpine head-unit, the Audio-processor, Roof Mount TV, DVD Stacker, steering wheel remote adapter etc.

So much wiring. Replaced with an Android unit, and tidied up a lot of the wiring at the same time.

Managed to get it running Microsoft Teams

Thanks mate.
Let me know how you go on the Sunroof. They indicated they weren't selling them anymore, but that may have been a ploy to get me across the line.
Running the Pedders coilovers, which are adjustable. They are probably getting a bit old now, so may need to get them checked and potentially a refresh.
