Hey Smithy

You killed a few unsuspecting cars yet? I wasn't having much fun when I first got my City T2, as I had the fuel cut come on too. Then I checked my vacuum lines, and they turned out to be all in the wrong places (diagram on the bonnet). You might wanna check that out too.

With fuel cut coming in with so much ferocity (Scared the F#@k out of me the first time!) I busted the red bush that resides in the mount near the dizzy. You know, the one that looks like an arm, its stuck to the firewall. I haven't replaced it yet, don't know if anyone can help with that one...

Remember: Tiny, but Mighty!!!!

Have fun mate!

Chhun

I got a TCC WORK BOV type 1 for free!!! Haven't put it on yet, lack of pipes in stuff... I'm sure it'll sound sweet.

Been having a lot of wet weather up in sunny QLD lately haven't we? Having a lot of trouble with traction. 1st gear is useless, change, so is 2nd, snap into 3rd up a hill, no luck there too, 4th is better, slow chage into 5th, uh oh, aqua plane, there goes 5th, spinning away - engine bouncing on rev limiter...

The RX2 mustta been mad!! Gotta love the old school...

Take care in this weather mate!

Chhun.

Hi Turbo Jockeys,
Remember that there have been a number of Turbos in the local Honda Club over the years.  Still a couple active.  And our February meeting is on Monday (10th), at the Sport Aircraft Association Club rooms in Beatty Road at Archerfield (just in the main entrance, just south of Kerry Road)  from 7.30pm, until as late as you'd like.
Look forward to anyone coming along.

Did I see one of you guys on monday morning going along the gateway at about 7am?  It was a white T2 with two guys in it... you may have noticed a purple 200sx blowing off beside you :)  That was me :)

Hi,

If any of the Brisbane Turbo fans really do care about their cars, the club is having a "Car Care" day (for leagal reasons we can't call it a "service" day.) at Yatala on March 16.  If you'd like to get together with some other T owners, come along.  If you want some tips on tuning, we can help.  Hope to see a few of you come along.
