    Nothing to much to report. Been playing around with fuel tank, re the walbro 460 and an adequately sized return line. Pretty sure I’ve nutted it out. Just need to buy some submersible hose. Shits not cheap. Like $80 per MTR

    Kroozer has hooked me up with Some pulleys and belts which will get that side of things finalised.

    Also since today is my bday the misses with my help brought me my new fandangle water pump.

    Should be more then up to the task for what I need.

    Looks like a nice bit of kit, so I assume you can sort of mount that anywhere, is that the go?

    <p style=”text-align: left;”>yeah anywhere really.</p>
    <p style=”text-align: left;”></p>
    <p style=”text-align: left;”>Im in 2 minds atm about how I wanna tackle it. Either bay mounted tank which can accomodate Ice. Or just a dedicated trunk tank. I think I’m leaning towards a boot mounted tank.</p>
    <p style=”text-align: left;”>For the price the pump should be killer $550   :huh: </p>

    couldnt figure out that sale. I wanted to buy my turbos and take advantage of $300 off. Code wouldn’t work. Rang eBay, they told me the code didn’t apply to car parts. Yet I received 3 emails from separate performance parts stores saying to use the code. Fking annoying.

    I think the code only applied to Australian eBay items.

     

    Withthe currency conversion + tax + freight is it much cheaper from us?

    Makes you wonder how some of them stay afloat. When I bought my 9″ 35 spline diff centre section. There was a $600 price difference from competition engines to VPW. VPW being more expensive. Thats for the same item.
