  1. What about your missus? Get her into the thing!
  2. Honestly, why are you continuing with her? Doesnt it feel like a waste? I say keep her as a daily when you get your license back, seeing how much money and effort you've already poured into it.
  3. Already organized! Thanks anyways guys. Cheers, Jake.
  4. In need of a windscreen! Who can help me out/point me in the right direction? Cheers, Jake.
  5. Picked up some RWD extractors for the 4AGE tonight. VERY happy with price, especially for BRAND NEW! Also on a more important note, RWC booked for Monday. Most likely road "legal" by weeks end. After rego, immediate plans are to LOWER the crap out of it and fit my MA61's with 195/45/14's. Undecided on plans/time frame for the 4AGE conversion. I'm tempted to do a high compression 4AGE for shits and giggles. Cheers, Jake.
  6. Negative offset is away from the car and positive is towards the car. Hence, negative rim generally stick out from yours gaurds, much like Spencers, therefore needing to flare.
  7. DO IT! Purely for the lols when he sees another Corolla in the driveway!
  8. Go see it in real life and say that...
  9. If that's ALL you got defected for you're all sweet man. Probably the easiest defect to get out of ever! Loving the build man. Keep it up.
  10. Llyod Smith was/is on his L's, so I doubt license is an issue...
  11. Took it in today for a bit of a check before going for the Roadworthy. She only needs a few things! Needs a new clutch something chronic! New panhard bar bushes, new pedal rubbers and new front sway bar stabilizer bushes. Also need to replace drivers seat belt as it is frayed. I think that's a good effort for a car that has been through 320,000kms and has been paddock bashed at some point in her life. When I originally picked her up Evan and I took her to the car wash to get rid of most of the dirt from when she was in the paddock. I thought I got most of it. I got under her properly today, I reckon I did like 10kgs of weight reduction mods, IE; removed 10kgs of mud! Soon to be registered! Yeah boy! Here is a picture of dirt. lol.
  12. I got sick of looking for Spirit seats and don't want to pay to get them reupholstered. So I found these; R32 GTR Leather Skyline seats. Got them for $150, bargain! Not going to fit them till after rego though. Can't wait to fit them, so comfortable! Also on the way to picking them up from Woop Woop, seen so many overrated cars! I kinda wish I went to that Charity Cruise that's going on. Cheers, Jake.
  13. I've spoken to a few mechanics and the blokes who do all my roadworthies; in terms of rust, if the car has any, it's unroadworthy. I guess it all depends how severe and how well hidden it is, also how much of a hardass your roadworthy guy will be. I've also heard from a reliable source that the price of RWC have gone from $99 to $220 now. An attempt to prevent cars from being passed. They also take photos now. I don't think this helps, but thought I'd let you know what I know. Cheers, Jake.
  14. All I need is dates and I'll start organizing a fire at work :)
  15. Nah Stu, it's about right for a bog stock 4k. They're quite gutless when stock.
  16. So a parcel arrived today. All I can say is... "Hello Garrett GT2560R!!!" Appears to be in pretty good nick, seller said it was only on the car for 5000KMS.
  17. Pretty much bang on the head, Ben. I was going off of Paul's 4age for inspiration, but I had my own ideas after I started cleaning it up. I'm leaning towards clear cam gear covers, but am uncertain at the moment. Unfortunately this one didn't come with any cam gear covers, so it's gonna cost some money either way. Glad you like :D
  18. So I finished off cleaning the 4age up, as much as I could be stuffed doing. I've fitted and cleaned a rwd intake manifold too. I sprayed the block and head with clear coat, I'm not sure why, but that's what I felt like doing lol. Just need to reattach the alternator and water lines, then we're good to go. Enjoy.
  19. I like this colour! P.s. You paint better then Ev.
  20. I was thinking of the same thing, but at the same time, you'll have to find one. Also you won't know if it will look good till you do it.
  21. Doesn't look half bad, just lacking some chrome. Just tape a chrome strip somewhere :P
