Sold :( Money is going to a better cause though :)

It's back on ebay Possibly sold

it was sold on ebay for $570 but the guy has not contacted me, I have to resolve the case before I can sell it anyway -_-

Car's for sale guys.. every part included, selling as a whole. Well over $1500 worth of parts, asking $500. Blew another shitty bursons head gasket, and have no room at the new house to work on it :( Anybody's interested, give us a text or call. 0411 621 222

Studs are in, as is the new O2.. Lot's of work to be done with tuning mixtures -_- I need a turbo weber jet formula, would save me all these fiddly little drives and adjustments..

I didn't, my dad organized them through an engine builder he knows. I could ask for his detail's if you're interested in buying some. For anybody that's interested, individual part numbers are as follows: Studs: AM5.000-1LB Nuts: AMN12-1 Washers: AMW750N

Head stud's arrived :) Also, a new O2 sensor

Cheers, I'll give that a shot tomorrow :) Still leaning towards the air correctors though as the exhaust pops and makes a fuss, except if I keep pumping the pedal at the top end. Nahh I don't think so, i'll have to check.. Think I went to a colder plug when it was pinging to rule that out. Can't recall to be honest :/ What would you reccomend?

Now featuring 5 gears :) Drives well, like having that extra fun gear. Pretty sure my mixture woes are due to the air correctors, as it stutters up above 4000rpm; but not below (At 10psi [i dropped it for testing, it'll stay there for now]) Won't know 100% until I get my replacement O2 :)

Boost is set to 11-12 MPSI, I'll leave it there until I get the mixtures right after I replace the O2 Ultimately I want 12-13MPSI, I will say that it's building boost up nice and quick :D Will take it for a drive tomorrow hopefully and work on the ignition advance again. Gearbox will be picked up on Friday, busy weekend though so may not happen.

Ohh yea, I bought a 5 speed trans also :D So I'll pick it up toward the end of the week, and MAYBE have it fitted this weekend? lol.

FOUND THE MISSING HEAD BOLT!! In my sock drawer -_- lol. Anywho it's running and the BOV functions well :) Need to get a new O2 though, it's long gone :( After that I need to: check and correct my mixtures Possibly install a larger secondary acc pump nozel Check timing Plumb in external gate neatly Change exhaust possibly to a side pipe with a single larger muffler BUG BOMB THE SHIT OUT OF THE CAR, SO MANY SPIDERS :'( Set boost to 12-13psi (Manifold reading) Few ideas in the works after all that, but it's finally running again :D

Hey, they're 1 1/4" mandrel bend mild steel pipes. I got them from Performance exhaust in ringwood :)

Manipulated the heat-shield into position Carburettor has a brand new genuine gasket, so shouldn't leak petrol this time -_- Blow off valve is welded on New Ignition coil, HT lead and dizzy cap (To ensure a good circuit and a good spark with the increased load on the system) In addition, tonight I connected back up a bunch of hoses, refitted the waste-gate with 2 gaskets and new nuts. I then went to work on how I planned to hook up my pressure regulator, bov and gauge separate from the waste-gate to ensure a good vacuum and boost supply. Kinda hard to do neatly, so I'm taking my time while I wait for the head studs or missing bolt to turn up.

I've gotten impatient with the head studs, so I'm slowly putting it back together and fixing a few things once the main parts are on. Somehow I've managed to misplace a head bolt (That was on my bedside table, but has somehow disappeared) Anywho, they aren't torqued down, so I'll just leave it on until I either find the bolt, or replace them with studs when they arrive. At least it's in a position that I can hook up most of the hoses and stuff again. Ohh yeah, my girlfriend made the heat-shield for me; another freeby from work :) Might neaten it up when I have some spare time.
