That is how they used to get unloaded when I worked at Komatsu.

Yeah, was suspected and I was expecting to rebuild it.

Marry me?

Welcome to the board mate, could not agree with you more on the other forums.

Spoke to my cousin today that was actually in the car when it got stuck in the mud, she said it was hit a bit too fast and the engine spluttered to a halt. They ended up getting the car started and out of the mud but it was rattling bad, so bad that it had beyond no power on the drive home. Oh dear,I think I will just pull the heads off and check the piston height.

Done a compression test?

The brown is the factory colour, it is another step in my plan to return it to original.

Just look for the mini called Mr ED :P

Supposed to be everywhere there.

Mine never had side windows. Have you ever been to magnetic island?

Impreza crash: http://www.qt.com.au/news/forensics-police-probe-new-year-dual-fatality/1705440/ It has nothing to do with a p-plate ban, making them all drive a hybrid prius wouldn't change it.

auto + boost = :D

Just noticed your uncles has side windows.

Before: After:

Shhhh, I am trying to listen to youtube about jelqing :P Now you just need to find some pics of Gups old v8 moke.

Did you get seats? all that was left of my seats were the frames from wood rot.

Bring on the Moke.

So I went to the wrecker to get some stuff for the Terrano but ended up leaving with this: Dash has a few little marks but still the factory am radio. Consoles are uncracked. Also got the passenger side under dash tray. BYE BYE BLACK, CRACKED INTERIOR.

No luck on it spinning faster, managed to compression test 1 and 3 and it managed 60 and 50 psi so with some luck with a new starter she should fire up.

Good to see you back around Tez.

My ute was sent over the PITS at DOT, nothing was even said about the blocks.

Starter seems to not have enough grunt to turn it over fast enough, it seems to have compression in all 4, will check tomorrow to see if I can spin it up.

This one was under $1500 It does indeed, full kit even intact and the blue does look good.

Scotch locks are the devil. I got motivated today and gave the starter a good clean out to put it all back together and have it working so I think I will put it in and see if I can start it / do a compression test. If the engine is all good then I will refurb this one and stick it back in as it really is quitegood under all the shit, if I need to rebuild the engine then I have to pull it out anyway. Another thing I did was put the head unit from the ute in it (pioneer DEH-P6050UB) as I am taking the amps etc out of it, the pioneer components I got for the mrs 82 are also going to go in the front of it. I know some might think that it a bit stupid since it isn't going as yet but the more comfortable I make this thing now, the more motivated I will be to fix it.
