Hi Guys,

I have been making a few posts over the last few days so I thought I better quickly introduce myself.

I am living in Sydney and currently driving a 91 Sera.

I bought it about a year ago as a bit of a project, but like all great plans, I never have enough time to do what I want to do. It has had a 4E-FTE engine and manual gearbox put in and is currently sporting a body kit which is kinda **** and will be replaced when I finally give it a respray (last job on the wish list).

I am certainly not a mechanic, but I have a mechanical mind and I love to learn by doing things and doing most repair/maintenance work on the cars & bikes I have owned in the past is where all of my engine knowledge comes from. This is my first turbo engine so it has been a fun new experience to learn some extra things.

The one downside to learning this way is that I might not know the proper names of things that I am talking about, so if you read a rambling post of mine trying to explain what I am talking about, please help me out. :D

Also, thanks to everyone that posts in this forum. I have already gotten a few answers and picked up some great tips just from reading about other peoples projects.

P.S. Does anyone know the best place to buy high temp paint in Sydney? I am planning on cleaning up the engine bay and spraying my valve cover soon. I am out near Alexandria.
