after i fitted the 1521a cam, my car 'had' the light throttle surge problem until i got it tuned at Chiptorque, then you could crawl around town in 4th gear @ 30kph and would coast perfect.
but now ive fitted another cam but running it under the old tune, the car surges anything under 2000rpm in 5th on light throttle. Looks like another <$400 is coming outta my pocket again.....

Ah yeah it was definatly you then, nice ride. Thanks man i love my ba lights, but i'm thinking of getting a spare set of EA-D cases and trying something different soon, Along similar lines, but with reflectors that i think will suit the EB light shape a bit better.

very true, i'm starting to get into the attitude that i can't be stuffed doing inside the door sills and engine bay etc, which will look stupid if i change the colour. Sticking with a slightly different silver is getting more and more tempting.

Look ma! No head!
 Bet ya'll can guess whats going on now, mwahahahaha! And some other nonsense i've been up to. Fellow cappa interiored owners will know the annoyance of our armrests turning green. Well i stopped into an autostore the other day to try this  Apparently its supposed to soak into the vinyl, but i will certainly find out the truth, problems is though, its still not close enough for me to be happy with, but it is alot better than the green.  I have also been fkn with my woodgrain, i got me a piece of tassy oak and decided to have a go at making them myself.  And the shapes cut ready for shaping the profile  Anyway, thats it for today, head should be ready for wednesday week, my mate has a couple of other jobs he has to do first, which is fair enough. So i think i'll spend the arvo drinking without working.
