2013 MS Sydney to the Gong Ride

Hi Everyone,
 
It's Gongride time again!!
 
Just a quick note to plant the seed again for this year's MS Sydney to the Gong Ride on the 3rd of November.
 
As most of you will know, MS is very close to us all, there are several forum members living with the challenges it brings and there are a number of others very close to our members that are also effected.
 
I am doing the ride this year to help raise as many $$$ as possible to go towards research and assisting those dealing with MS every day of their lives. Hopefully most of us can chip in a few $$ towards the cause and sponsor me on the ride.
 
This year I am doing the ride with my wife...she has taken the plunge and registered, and has been training every weekend. This is a pretty big feat given she battled to ride a bike a few months ago and is now doing 60kms each time we go out!!
 
Please everyone, get ready to dig deep if you can, or just throw your support towards the ride!!
 
Regards,
 
Phil.

Chinese H-Beam Rods - ARP bolts genuine?

After many recommendations I've gone and bought myself a set of H-Beam rods for my Pinto. They come fitted with "Genuine ARP bolts".
 
They look the goods but when I compare the rod bolts to another set of ARP bolts the print in head of bolt is different. Could be a different batch or age thing but the other bolts came loose in a bunch of parts I bought so cannot verify their origin either so thought I'd ask here to see if anyone else has considered this?
 
I'd be worried about rod quality if I have to also change the bolts because I'm worried about bolt quality...

Building a car trailer

G'Day,
 
Has anyone on here built a twin axle car trailer before?
Would you do it again based on time/effort/cost vs buying new or second hand?
 
Thanks,
Rhys

Eskypassa SR20 MK2 2Door

So here it is, my new MK2. 6 years since my last Mk2 and this time i looked for something bit different to the norm Mk2. I gambled on a running car without the engineer permits for all the mods done.  
  
So i bought this MK2 with SR20DET. I'm currently learning lots about the car as i go through the process of getting engineer approvals then onto the pits for rego. What i do know is S13 engine with cam,injector, S15 turbo niztune chipped ecu and 3 inch stainless exhaust all  for about 190kw. Sitting on lowered suspension with Falcon Diff and brakes and 16 inch rims. Inside is mostly new but keeping to the escort style.
