  1. Buy now! Or possibly swap for cool kSev shit.
  2. nah sorry guys its not likely to happen, especially with me working till late each night in the shed now on my new toy. Trying to get it rolling and at least close to running for the jap car show lol.
  3. I have been at it yet again! this evening i finished cleaning up my quads and manifold awaiting new inlet manifold gasket so i can get the inlet side of the engine together again ready to run. Also removed the extractors and got as much of the gasket as i could off the head, left it soaking in some solvent to loosen whats baked on still and will get to that tomorrow night. Now with nothing i can do on the engine front until i get my gaskets, i decided to get into the next big hurdle, the front suspension. it had previously copped 80% or so of a XT130 front end upgrade but it was missing a few key things, and also the caster rod, the rod bracket and the sway bar were all bent on the passenger side, QUITE badly. all the bushes are rooted and stuff too. The easiest thing to do was rip it all out and replace it all with my DX's gear as its all been painted up nicely and has little grime and yuck on it, also the bushes are all nolathane ungraded items. A lot of people poo poo the nolathane items but my stuff is over 2 years old and been in some VERY harsh conditions and it all works sweetly still. No cracks, not dried out not even discoloured. My rack also has a AJPS opposite lock spacer and almost new front wheel bearings. So i could pretty much bolt it in except I'm anal as about it all so itll all be pulled down, cleaned and regreased, all the metal work water blasted and repainted (probably in red to match the car...) this will be done tomorrow evening. some pics for those who prefer the visual kind of stimulation :) heres one of the poo as single piston xt130 brakes that were in it. inner wheel arch, passenger side after strut removal and a paint and heres one of what was the dxs front end removed ready for a tart up and being put into the new car.

  6. no worries mate got some pics for yous all of what ive done in about 30mins, too hot so I'm stopping for now. ok so first i begun dismantling the inlet side to get gaskets in there and shiz and found everything was very dirty so i figured cleaning would be good... heres a shot ot the inlet side of the head and the ports before... and after a little love with a rag and throttle body cleaner next in line for a clean was the fuel rail before: after a little clean with some alibrite (highly recommend this stuff but use gloves lol) And then finally after a little rub with some autosol for the wow factor lol more when i can be bothered working in this heat lol.

  11. Hi guys, Lookin to sell this as soon as possible as my girlfriend has upgraded and wed like to pay out a bit of credit card debt and stuff.(shes gonna let me buy rims for my new keto with the coin haha.) um its pretty much stock, has some aftermarket speakers in the front doors from memory and some sort of cd player, just remember its cheap and crappy but does work lol. has 15" gold rims on it not the shit ones in the pic but the other ones shown separately, pretty much stock as, has a fairly new clutch, only thing ever needed replacing on this car. other wise its just been serviced and driven, never ever missed a beat! would suit a learner or first car or even someone wanting a cheap one to do up i guess. priced very cheap as its a bit rough and we want it gone quickly. The bonnet and parts of the body work have dints and the clear coat is peeled off a lof of the body, if you polished it up it would look ok again but I'm not interested in doing so. A few interior bits are missing nothing major tho. don't even bother lowballing me this price isnt ono its what i want we are losing a lot reguardless. paid 3500 for it less than two years ago, only want 2000. it recently ran out of rego so has none, will organise a roady for the right buyer (ie i don't think your a toss and your forthcoming with cash asap.) can organise delivery of it if your worried about getting it home unrego. heres a couple of pics, now HURRY UP AND BUY!! i wanna get rims for my new ke70 :D heres the car these are the wheels on it
  12. Lol @ the GPS that shit cracked me up duuuude. oh and happy birthday you old kent :P shoulda called me was kinda hopin youd be keen for a beer to celebrate!
  13. Hey its Bec Basically after any cancelled licence regardless of age or what licence you were on before you went to court, you go back onto a Probational licence (not to be confused with provisional) this period is for 12 month from when you have your licence re-issued. You don't have to start the licence process from scratch, that only happens if u haven't held a licence in the last 5 years, and you wont have to go through the red and green provisional licence if you were under the old rules. As for a late night driving restriction anyone under 25 falls under this category although sometimes this can be appealed. After you have your licence re-issued chances are if you are under a late night driving restriction you wont get a letter about it. Best thing is to ask the operator at the time of re-issue if you are on the late night driving restriction. The probational licence after being to court, providing you are on the old p plate rules not the red and greens are just no driving under the influence and not more than 4 points in that year, if you get a good operator this should be explained. Because you are under the old rules you don't have any high powered vehicle restriction either. Well hope this has cleared things up, need more info just ask.

    Ella's Dx Ke70

    sorry can't get seal kits, ebay should be pretty cheap for them though. So I have come to a small fork in the road... The only way I can get ahold of the bits I need is by giving them photos of the car and a chasis number. Sorry guys I won't be able to go ordering too many bits for peeps. loveke70 I should likely be able to sort you out with what you need as you have a chasis number I can work off.

    Ella's Dx Ke70

    So I'm 80% sure through our suppliers at work i can supply jdm parts at much cheaper prices tham certain suppliers peddling bits at far inflated prices to what the parts are actually worth
