  1. In two minds about the ITB's (if their from the 20v) cause normally its a custom manifold to have them fitted up. And unless you can do it yourself with the parts, materials and tooling its generally not really that cheap. The same can be said for the forged internals - upside is higher strength, downside is higher cost. I know where your coming from with what you said Trav, but if its a road car i wouldn't be too concerned with forged stuff, maybe go as far as the gze crank but i think that'd be about it.
  2. I'm guessing thats factory, cause there's one very similar that gets around toowoomba here from time to time
  3. T-series g'box with the A-series bellhousing should bolt up fine. But i don't know if the flywheel will be ok to use cause the motor as far as i know wasn't used in a RWD car. But it does have the RWD mounts (or at least from what i've seen and could work out). You'll have to relocate a few of the bolt-on bits, brackets and pipes so that you can get to the mounts. The next problem is that the dizzy is at the back of the head....
  4. Will be broken tonight here on RollaClub
  5. Same same, with the lower limit. The Bruce highway north and south of Gympie is the same with a lower limit, once the limit was a 100 and now cause of a high road carnage its been dropped to 90. Bugs me having to sit at the 90 limit, i'm ok with the watching of the speedo cause i just set the cruise for it. But the thing that really gets under the skin is that some dickhead will race up behind and sit right on my arse, finely figure out that i wont be intimidated to speed up and pass at the first possible chance which would include double lines, traffic coming, etc etc.
  6. Just the thing for the soccer mum who just has to get her kids to the soccer field before time. Behold the Renault Espace F1
  7. Yes, the factory. Their the same length
  8. needle needle point
  9. And getting back to the question - ^^ Thats something to think about. Another thing is - keep it looking factory ? Out of sight ? Or in your face where everybody and their friendly police person (hehe) can see it and want to class you as a "hoon" ? When i had my old '30 i had a k-mart cheapie (about a 3.5" thing) sitting on the steering column. It was easy to read due to the size, nice centre location (i could read the tacho and the speedo at the same time). And it was below the dash line meaning it was out of everybody else's sight and most importantly out of my sight while watching the road.
  10. Nar, thats after cow flu
  11. swine flu
  12. Next question - Do you want glasses or binoculars ??
  13. Yes, yes it will BUT And this from someone who drove one in his ae82 seca twincam for over a year
  14. I wouldn't say no to a g11 turbo
  15. Mutton flaps
  16. Yes the "g" head will fit on the 4a-f block. But, you'll need the crank mounted cam belt cog, the cam belt, the water pump (the only difference between them is a piece of metal), the belt covers and every bit thats bolted to the head including head bolts from the 4a-g to be able to use the "g" head on the "f" block. And depending on what pulleys are used on the water pump, alternator etc you'll also need the 4a-g crank pulley. You could say that in a nut shell you'll need a 4a-g motor so that you can fit the "g" head to the "f" block. And the "f" block also misses out on a few things externally - On the 4a-g intake manifold there's a support bracket that goes from the manifold to the block, the "f" block has the boss for it but its not drilled and tapped out. And most importantly the "f" block doesn't have the bosses drilled and tapped for the rwd mounts.
  17. AFM the spring can be reset to give a stronger fuel mixture. Where as the MAP you can use a pair of resistors to change the fuel mixture. MAP would be better cause of being able to change the mixture in the cabin while driving. Aftermarket ECU - Megasquirt
  18. Manx buggies, that brings back memories of when i got my L's the very first car i looked at was a manx
  19. Kit cars, hey ? I think i can do one up on kit cars But i'm not going to bother taking a pix of it cause apart from it being a rolla, its in just to many boxes and i'm slowly piecing it back together just like a kit And so with a "fair shake of the sauce bottle" KITT from the 80's Knight Industries Three Thousand (aka the mustang) is way cooler. But as a kid watching Knight Rider and thinking just how awesome it'd be having a car that could drive itself. And then later on finding out it was nothing more then someone stuffed in the boot it still sounds pretty cool
  20. Not quite "through and through" Jap cause it was built on the GM's T-platform which was a design for global use
  21. Don't people know what a search function is ?? Google is your friend so phuckin use it
  22. Canadian snow bunnies :y:
  23. http://www.4agte.nl/Articles.6.0.html Club4AG - Forum Turboing a stock 4AGE But to be able to search the forum you'll have to join up
  24. ke55 - the '30 has both mounting points. You can use the ke55 auto cross member but you'll have to weld the other one to it (ke55 manual x-member) Don't quote me but the hole in the auto version is longer
