  1. Its to heat the inlet for cold starting/running Yeah if you wanted to use a stock exhaust manifold with say a side draft inlet, you would have to make a steel plate to cover the hot box flange.
  2. Which gasket have you ordered? Highly recommend changing the flange gasket, hot box gasket (where inlet and ex mani bolt together) and manifold gasket all at once for piece of mind. Would be nothing worse than doing one of the 3, and then having to do one of the other 2 only weeks etc after. Be careful doing the hotbox gasket though as the bolts have a tendancy to snap. Also track yourself down a Permaseal EM30 1-piece manifold gasket. They last over 3 times longer than an ACL etc 2-piece. :)
  3. Yeah they say some form of exercise befor bed is a good idea. I can recommend something other than lifting weights though!! :bash: If that fails..... :) :)
  4. Ok Daim's not coming, so we're a bit more flexible on where we can go. rolla13bt suggested the sidling. Could Could line them up there with Scottsdale/Springfield in the background. Adam said he really needs somewhere we can get up above the cars a bit to look down on them, so if went there somebody might have to give him a boost up onto the toilet roof! :) So now attendees are: ......and please confirm here.... Myself rolla13bt Falken_ke30 (are you changing that to ke70 now :) ) Toy-yoda Leigh ke20rolla (spoke to him this morning) Anybody else?
  5. ah, was just asking about this in your other thread. You wanted the cressy Cam bought didn't you josh?
  6. ...and don't forget you diff has 'no oil' in it. :) :)
  7. Just come in/up and see if I'm home next time. I was outside doing something and didn't realise I had a msg. So how long till she's back on the road again? oh btw, do you still have the cressy? Mate of mine bought one the same earlier in the week, very sentimental as it was his late grandfather's car 10+ years ago. Still bloody neat for it age and got it for $900. I gave him evil ideas about NA motors the other night, but either NA or turbo it will be getting a 2JZ conversion!!! :)
  8. Is it deffinately the charge light not the oil light? Low oil level could cause this. If it is the charge light, check the amount of acid in your battery. It could be so low that ever time you pull a poofteenth of a G the battery electrodes are out of the acid!
  9. Thats what I figured, if we make it a bit later a few more people could come. Just need to decide on a location now! Who's got some good ideas on a nice spot? I think we can do a little better than Inveresk! :)
  10. Wouldn't the .48 be a bit restrictive to be running that much boost? Yeah it'll spool quick as hell, but might still run out of chuff in the top end. I'm havinvg the same sort of problem at the moment with a .48 on a T25G, but I'm only running <14psi cause of the ceramic wheel.
  11. Nice rig brodie, I'd love to get myself a KP one day, but that requires importing from somewhere. :) Are they rewinds? We're not gunna knock back any toyota here buddy! :)
  12. Ring your local transport authority. I'm running the usual chev lifters and datsun A12 push-rods with 4k adjustable rocker gear.
  13. Do you like mango? I've been drinking a bit of that lipton mango green tea lately. Good stuff, and heaps more refreshing than a can of carbonated something or other.
  14. You're not going to get an effective forced induction tune with a stoko 4ke ECU. And you'll need bigger injectors etc which will throw it out even further. Just get an aftermarket ECU and you don't have to use an AFM then. :)
  15. Place and location have not been decided yet. We can do late Sunday arvo if you want?
  16. Not sure, you'll have to ask him. Only in Tassie hey!? :) I told him about your bro last week. His mum said to him yesterday "did you hear about Leigh's boy?" (thats your dad's name isn't it?) Kye was like "no what happened" she told him and at that point he realise who they were talking about and then also realised you guys are related.
  17. Was talking to Kye downstairs this morning......do you know he is your second cousin!? He didn't. Your dad and his dad are cousin, and he's a Curwen too. His brother is also a member here - Chad aka ke30nuts.
  18. Is that Tofu? Thought it looked familiar!
  19. What is this "new rolla"?
  20. Aftermarket 5k piston on the left (ACL etc), original toyota one on the right. Most of the aftermarket pistons have around 6cc of dish, where as the toyota ones are 22cc. So even if using a 4k head on the 5k you really want the deep dish pistons for low comp....... |blink|
  21. Yeah try second gear at that speed. :( and just hold it flat after you turn the key off. My mazda shoots awesome flames too. I'll have to get a good vid of them one day too. :o always sets off car alarms just putting past. |blink|
  22. Have you worked out which one is a Mazda yet Myles!? |blink|
  23. You know where I'll be between 7:30 and 8:30 tonight mate if you want to drop round? :jamie:
  24. Yeah I just gotta put it back together again some time this week and I'll come out. I'll go down to the inspection station and get myself some calamari for dinner while I'm there! :jamie:
  25. I'll take your for a drive,....but um yeah haven't even let the missus drive it yet! Its a bit of a handful still and the lightened flywheel/button clutch make for some fun! :jamie: Alarm and immob is in. :D
