gday all,

When i was parking the LJ on friday in an underground car park in Melbourne i accidently rolled into a conrete pillar

:(

and put a dint in the front of my car. I think i am fortunate because the impact hasn't pushed the guard back or cracked the join between the nose cone and guard, and it has been dinted there before, before i got it. I think its gonna be a bugger to fix however.

This is only my second incident in the Torana. The last one was reversing into my parts car nose cone and putting a dint in the boot next to the lock.

Here is a pic of the Gas setup under the bonnet!

Looks like a neat gas setup Steve. Best of luck fixing the dint, doesn't look too bad.

After a bit of work I'm sure the dint will be sorted out alright

The Gas Research system looks hot!

Holy shit, I dented my LJ in the EXACT same spot about a year ago, came a little too close to a pillar at the workshop. It looks like it's been hit there before aswell, doesn't look too bad but. Good luck fixing yours.

Hey Steve nice setup similar to mine. I got my car dyno tuned recently and it made 195hp at the wheels, the shop I got it done at are gas experts (nanso's in ossie park) and have told me to remount my mixer with the gas pipe facing the ground with the diaphram face left to right. They say that they get oil contamination from the gas and having laid flat doesn't leave the oil anywhere to drain, but if you put it the way I said it drains into the gas pipe and gets burnt up. Its only a tiny amount of oil but it gathers up overtime. They said my diaphram is already a bit erroded from oil exposure.

You heard anything like that before?
