  2. hey here is the wet morning practice so lots of sideways haha, and race 1. enjoy haha :y:
  3. yeah thats a good score :y:
  4. haha i race my gze ke70 at winton 3 times with tyres that were on it while it sat in a paddock for 7 years, cracks n all haha, still sitting in the shed on the same ones haha
  5. i get all my tyres for everything i use from the wreckers, dudes buy new tyres then their car breaks and they just take them to the wreckers haha
  6. go to the wreckers and get about 10 tyres for under $100 haha
  7. awesome mate, would be cool with a hot motor and some mags :P
  8. hey, they just have a spring above a diaphram, i think with a set of gsx 750 carbs it would be good, but i just don't have the time or money to play around with them for now, but on day i will probs try to do a better setup, but for now i just wanna be able to drive it haha, i think i'm gonna save up some cash, get the cam reground, the head shaved and get a headgasket, then i might look at doing carbs, but of course having a racecar drains the bank lol
  9. thanks mate, i can't wait till i have it looking 100% how i want it, it's getting pretty close haha
  10. hey, thanks, cool i'll check it out when its up, i put the 12r head back on today, i ported it and gave the valves a re-grind, and i gave it coat of silver, i'll get it shaved and the cam reground one day when i can afford it haha, and maybe a weber, the bike cars were just a pain, it didn't start on its own, and didn't run right, so its just easier haha
  11. yeah i painted my ke70 with dulux household enamel, dad painted heaps of cars with it and they still look good ten years later :P
  12. Hey, sorry haven't updated since winton, couldn't be bothered haha, car went ok, injectors blocked up half way through race one, i did the next 2 races with it running on about 4 maybe 5, i got a 1:54 in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd race, then at the end of race three the power steering pump died, i fixed the injectors then went out and did race 4 with no power steering at all, i got a 1:50.0, i didn't bother going out in the last race as it wasn't worth the risk haha, i had fun in the morning practice coz it was wet so i couldn't help my self lol, there was a 5.7 ltr 6 spd vt ss it got a 1:55 lap haha, i got third again, i really need some better tyres and a bit more go haha, and i need some lower springs for the back, i'll upload vids during the next week haha :P it was a fun day anyways
  13. it is, apart from the early starts haha
  14. hey mate, this thing is awesome, i have a 1970 corona with bike carbs on it, they were cool and worked ok but the carbs i got were a bit crap so i'm just building a new head with a weber or something like that, i might do it again one day with some r1 carbs as the ones i have were off a 250cc bike i think haha:P
  15. hey mate, looks so tuff, i got a 1.49.3010 in my vt last sprint round, i've built a roll cage and put better diff ratios in it so hopefully it will go faster not slower haha, i'm racing in the sprints on saturday i'm exited :D i can't wait to get some semi slicks its gonna be awesome
  16. oh and i also changed the fuel filter, the old one had so much crap in it hahaha
  17. G'day, got the cage done and painted :D made some door trims for the front and use vl door handles so they sat in a bit more flush, haven't done the back ones yet, dunno if i'll do them before winton, got a 5 point monza harness, and mounted a race seat i got for $50 off a mate on some ea rails i chopped up so the seats a bit lower, also got padding for the cage and made a little pad to go on the steering wheel bolt haha, tell me what you think, i have a race a winton on saturday in about a week :D
  18. and here is race 4, i have a toyota 86 in front of me for most of it, i think it had semi slicks on it :D there is a bit of drift action by me on one of the corners in the first lap haha :P
  19. hey, got the cage done yesterday, iv'e decided to add a few more braces though haha, it looks the goods i think :D i think it came up ok, gonna put another diagonal brace from the top left of the main hoop to the bottom right back stay, also 1 straight bar either side, from the windscreen bend on the lateral bars to the floor mount, and a diagonal brace in the roof :P
  20. yeah, i used my mates mig, i should probs do a course but pfft
  21. G'day, i've got most of the cage done, had to make a tube bender, cost $100 to make, worked awesome, the other bender just kinked the pipe haha, all i have left to do is weld the backstays and harness bar in, and 2 small corner braces, a few more bits left to do then i will have to get some paint, cost me about $1000, brown davis charges about $4000 to build a cage, what do you all think? :D
  22. my dad had one on his ke20 like 20 years ago haha
