FTO AUSTRALIA

Looks good!

Over the weekend I did both of the CVs on my new daily, and taking it in for a WoF tomorrow morning, hope it passes...

Raised the boost in the bemma from 14.5psi to 18.5psi power output no idea. JB4 best computer in the world

Nice, always need more boost!

Took the Starlet for a Warrant of Fitness yesterday, failed on chipped windscreen, split Steering boot, loose tow bar, some rust spots, and unmatched rear tyres.
Picked up a windscreen repair kit and a new steering boot today, shall grind back the rust and remove the tow bar this week/weekend and hopefully get it legal next week

Changed plugs on the Scoob. What a c**t of a job that is

Oh and the fuel filter.. which is integrated.. into the pump unit... and lives under the back seat

Yep.

Mazda 6 fuel pumps. THE WORST. The big ring nut that goes around is a c**t to get on, and there isn't enough room to get our big filter tool in there properly because they sit under a big lip thing. I feel your pain..

Oh and did I mention that every fking Mazda 6 owner has a fking dog and or 13 children under the age of 8 that all live in the back seat? Holy f**k!

Your pic... sucks pirate ass

But yep, that's exactly what it was. I used a hard plastic drift & a hammer & was able to spin it off enough to go by hand. But yeah there's a big lip thing as well & I wasn't in the mood to get it off as well!

Does yours have that bullshit little mark that you have to line up? Often it takes us two guys to get the lock nut on the top. We have a big SST thats just a claw the same size that we use a breaker bar on. That would've been f**king aids to line up with a hammer.. Ours can take two or three goes to get the little arrow to line up as you have to guesstimate where the thread is going to end.. I have seen seats/underseats that you can barely see the base due to dog hair or human slime...

One of the techs got one the other week so bad that he had to spend 20 minutes vacuuming it and wear a mask

My Holden jackaroo is a rolling daycare car wife wants to sell it for a tarago now that I have my fto

Painted the fto indent on the bonnet silver instead of the scrappy gold they had and also cleaned up the fog lights

Went to put new turbo on but have to get it welded up, didnt quite fit.

Also cleaned spare bonnet with Subaru Scoop on it and chucked that on.

Bout the same size tubs on my car

That one is actually significantly bigger than the one that came off

Said good bye to the Tug boat for the last time, as it was taken away to the scrap yard

Changed the stock air filter to a pod filter
