  1. A poofteenth of what they make off the tax they collect from smokers. :yes: Anybody ever noticed how the price of patches and gum goes up with the regular ciggies price increases!? The government doesn't really want people to quite because then they'd loose one of there biggest sources of revenue. f@$k tax payings!!! Its smokers and speeders who really keep this country going. :yes:
  2. Mercy mercy mercy me....
  3. Fairo. It was a bit of an assumption on my behalf that they wouldn't go sumis>girlocks>sumis>girlocks from model to model...... and that is why assumption is the mother of all f@$k ups! :yes: Can you tell I've never played with much KE2X stuff!? :yes:
  4. Sumitomos are deffinately Japanese calipers, the aus spec ones are Girlocks. They didn't start using Girlocks until KE55's though so that shouldn't be your issue. The only real difference between sumitomos and girlocks on the 55 anyway is the disc is like 1mm thicker on the ADM model. Only suggestion I can really think of to use those rotors is maybe you can space the caliper back a bit by using some washers between the caliper and mounting bracket!? :yes:
  5. Test and tune?
  6. I've got a wrap around bumper 55 and it never had pockets. That was a CS too.
  7. I dunno about the trans fluid, I personally wouldn't. Just put some NEW, cheap 20w50 in it, run it for like half and hour, then do an oil change. Repeat for extra piece of mind. :)
  8. Just put one of your 4k's in it. :)
  9. Have you got all of the ohter sensors and plugs that the Wolf needs? Mainly just Water and air temp? Cause FYI you can buy these bits new from wolf..... http://wolfems.cart.net.au/ :)
  10. Weren't they a 3k carb? They didn't have any anti-polution stuff on them.
  11. Nope. thats normal for a facet. People only use them cause they're cheap compared to say a holley or carter. I'm pretty sure one of the other reasons they're so noisey is because they have an oscilating piston, rather than a recipricating vien system like a holley/carter.
  12. http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?showtopic=11184 ;) Pilchard :)
  13. Just ask him to do a compression test on all four cylinders then. He should have done one as a process of elimination anyway. It only takes like 5 minute to test all 4 on a K.
  14. If removing the #4 plug makes not difference then its running on 3 cylinders..... which you should really be able to tell to start with! Does it sound sort of like a WRX when you rev it? A dropped cylinder can be caused by a few things: No fuel - But this is very unlikely for a 4kc given all other cylinders have fuel. Lack of compression - Either a stuck valve or dodgy rings can cause this. Doing a compression test will quickly confirm or deny it. No spark - This is the most likely cause. Could be a dead spark plug, faulty plug lead, or maybe even the dizzy cap. Try swapping a plug and lead from another cylinder and see if the dead cylinder is still #4 or the one that you swapped the suspected faulty plug/lead onto. Its probably not a bad idea to just re-build your whole ignition! I know that might sound intesive and expensive but its not really. If you head down to supercheap auto you should be able to get: New NGK plug Bosch supersport plug lead set New point and condenser New rotor cap and buttom .....for for under $50!!!! I don't mind buying that sort of stuff from SCA as its all branded. Replace all of that, re-set your plug gaps, points and timing and if you're still only running on 3 then I start looking at the stuck valve scenario.
  15. I saw your "S4" comment before I watched the vid so I was sitting there waiting to see a Delta S4..... cause I love them. The Golf was the closest thing I saw that resembled a Delta. Agreed. Seeing some euro cars drifting makes a nice change from silvias and skylines. That first v8 BMW seems to have some poke! The jap cars were holding it flat through that main corner and the the beemer comes through peddling on and off, but still slides the whole corner. :)
  16. Yeah cool. I thought you might have meant a delta S4 (black hatchback) which looks to me to be some sort of crazy RWD Golf! :)
  17. For others..... http://www.youtube.com/user/markstoys11 Took me a little while to find them. Is it just me, or does the exhaust note sound more like a ricie honda than a v8!?
  18. :) :bash: Make sure you put some steel/wood about the same thickness (or slightly thicker) as the disk in between the pads first then. Otherwise you're gunna have fun trying to get the caliper back over the disc. ;)
  19. You mean the calipers are on their opposite sides? If so how are you going to bleed the brakes?

    haha great work. You beat them........ with that much tyre smoke!! :)
  21. Robj did a rack and pinion conversion in his ke25. Its the one for sale in Hobart for like $13k. :)
  22. Delta S4? You mean the black hatchback thing?
  23. First thing you need to know is there's quite a bit of difference in the width of E7 and E3/5 cross members. KE70 chassis rails are maybe 200mm further apart than E3X/5X.
  24. The "C" would be an interesting bike to ride! ;) :)
  25. Thats not too bad at all! I looked at getting a 3 core put into my RX4's end tanks (without moving an outlet) and was quoted around $400!!! I ended up getting an ASI performance alloy cooler for about the same price as this one.... http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ASI-52mm-aluminum-a...=item45f3fede8f You'd just want to make sure it would fit in the KE2X width wise.
