Cavehill in Lilydale does a decent job!! He's done my machine work and assembled my bottom end for my little a12. And he knows hi way around the l series stuff too! Mate just had his l18 striker done by him 6 or so months ago.... (He doesn't mind cash either ;) )

Here's some prep I've been watching for datnats

Close to a 1200 in capacity except Simon

I refitted the diff housing and springs yesterday.

Todays list- fit guages, diff breather, gearbox breather, change all oils, and change front brake master cyl.

How is every one elses plans going??

RC, how is your coupe going?

Only 5 days to go!

i spent a bit of time on mine this morning, just about ready to go

im starting to think that i should have been smarter than to leave my bonnet with
the panel beater a week out from datnats!

I can bring a spare and paint it mat black if you get stuck. Just let me know.

thanks simon, dont worry i'll just pick up my bonnet at the end of the week ready or not...
it'll probably be sitting in the corner untouched collecting dust

I got 3 if u need one ange

Ive just got a bit of piping to redo plus get my thermo fans and shiflight working.Then give the y a big clean and il be good to go

I just have to bolt in the cage_ it's in the car now at,least , get those,newer avons on my Spare rims some time this week, give them a rattle can black wash and fit the new fia spec padding. Damn it's ugly.

Only wash my car will get is if it rains.

well, i didn't think i would make it till today, i've done enough to be able to track it, so i should be out there. unfortunately i didn't get a lot done that i would have liked, so it will be a bit bare minimum. but i've been wanting to race a CA18DET at datnats at the island for like 10 years. So i'm fulfilling my dream regardless of how well the car goes on the day

I've had an insane few weeks with the arrival of my daughter, she came very early and is still at the childrens hospital but she's doing really well so i'm still gonna head to the island
