Laws And Rights
There is always 2 sides to a story and we are only hearing yours so you must be doing something to shit them off. Like Reed said their house, Their rules. If you call the cops on them i reckon your going to open a can or worms that's going to kick your arse, Then burn your car.

People posting for sale adds and not posting any details about the car, A link to a build thread or another website isn't a description. If your not going to take the time to post a proper description I'm not going to take the time to read it.

Random Photo Thread
If some one did that to my corolla or falcon there would be 2 broken windows and 2 cars rolling down the hill, Or a tow bar through your bumpers.

Ke17 Sleeper Project
Buy the kit, Measure it all up and take to it a boiler maker or someone that has exceptional welding skills and pay them to weld it. Would take no more than 1 hour.

"dodgy" Mods Youve Done To Your Car
Drove an EB falcon wagon about 15km with no exhaust at all, Straight out of the exhaust ports. The noise and black smoke was insane. Also it had a slipping clutch so had to get a run up to make it up the hill in my old street. I had a Mazda 323 panel van and i seized the 1500 so i found a 1400 for about $30 and fitted it. The bastard wouldnt start as the exhaust valves were sticking open a little so i whipped the tappet cover off and bashed the end of the valves with a plank of wood till they were free. That crunk o shit used about 10 litres of oil in 300km. Used fencing wire to the shifter in on an old sigma. When it 1st came out it was stuck in 2nd so i found out it does 120kph in 2nd.

Blowing Smoke
Yep, Change the oil and filter if you haven't all ready and just drive it for a few hundred km's and keep an eye on the smoke. It may disappear or stay. Our Ke11 use to blow a little smoke and it only had been driven a handful of times in a few years. Fresh oil and some spirited driven fixed it and now it doesn't blow anything. A 41 year old 3k that doesn't blow smoke is hard to believe, i know.

Tyre Fitter Traineeship
I did tyres for a while and you learn to use your body weight pretty quick. Learn how to do suicide and split rims properly, Suicide rims can kill you if you f@$k it up.

Ke17 Sleeper Project
An electronic dizzy with a decent coil, leads and plugs etc will hold more revs than what a K motor can handle. My 41 year old 3k with a new electronic dizzy revs to 7400rpm then valve bounce kicks in. Also does 110mph.

Why do you want to go to a coil on plug setup ? what advantages do you think it will have ?

What Grinds My Gears.
Instead of looking down on that bloke why didn't you give him a break ? Buy the bloke some canned food or something or even better give him that high horse your riding on so he can have a 2nd chance at getting that job that you went for just out of school.
