Hasn't rained for weeks and none forecast but something wet is falling outta the sky and ended work for the night

apparently a certain is250 is coming now....

booyeah!!!!

[Draven]

in true wakefield style, wheel/tyre fitment will be done tonight, with an oil cooler and the (freshly painted) front bar fitted tomorrow night just before heading off.

As a result I probably won't make the meet point... depends on how everything goes. on the plus side, all goes well, I won't cook my engine or tyres

[The Real Roadrunner]

ive got to head back to look after the kids this arvo so ill grab them then.

Um, anybody know anything about this supposed IS250? Cause i don't.

My car is now looking unlikely, thought i had the brake issue sorted last night after a bleed and a few heat cycles, but it's bad again this morning. On the plus side it's now rego'd, but i think i had a blockage in the line to the front left, and it felt like it released on a heavy stop last night, but it's back this morning. Don't think i can get it fixed in time, i can barely get fluid bled out of that corner.

And how the hell are you meant to tighten tie rod ends in swaybar linkages when they spin with the nut in the ball joint and there's no room to clamp on it??!! It sounds like there's somebody swinging a pipe in my wheel well, or i left a crowbar hanging in amongst the rear suspension.

Um, anybody know anything about this supposed IS250? Cause i don't.

I would assume it to be Matt's car...

on the swaybar, does the balljoint have an allen key provision for such an occasion?

[Roundy]

isn't there a little allen key hole in the thread of the swaybar linkages? If i am right in what you are talking about.

[-GT-]

Nope, none that i saw..? You're the 2nd and 3rd people to say that to me this morning, i will investigate tonight, doesn't look like it tapers either, tried jacking one side to load it up and jam it against the side a bit, spent 45mins trying to tighten 2 of them last night after the drive, thought i'd got them maybe ok, this morning they were nowhere.

I didn't know matt had picked up a 250! I thought he was waiting for the F? He did leave me a message... i should call him back...

[Draven]

I think IS250 in this case = IS200 + 2.5L 1jz

[MR22ZZ]

Matt's car is an IS250, being a 2.5L engine in an IS shell
