Clapped out

In my opinion, if you keep driving it the way it is, obviously the worse it gets.................the more damage................and the more it will cost. Smart thing would be to drop the box, pull the inspection plate off and have a squiz inside and see what your up for. Check all aspects of the box and go from there, just my 2c, cheers phatke30!

Ask a mechanic or someone at an engine reconditioning place. cheers phatke30!

I'll take it easy on ya then, lol! tried doing a search? its at the top of the screen. if ya can't find anything in your search, then get back to us and I'm sure most of us are willing to answer any questions you may have, cheers phatke30!

Twas a great night! yeah i would have to agree, the food was a little 'hows it going', dougy was searching the menu hi and low to see if the waitress's were in there. lol! don't blame him, Thanks to all the people that organised :dance: cheers phatke30!

17x7's do fit under a ke30 providing the offset, your rooted if ya don't know the offset before buying wheels! A person i know up here has a set under their 55, cheers phatke30!

See you all at aspley maccas, cheers phatke30!

Nice, very nice! cheers phatke30!

Glad to see you saved those seats jon, they've been sitting in that rolla at the wreckers for as long as i can remember, should have grabbed the rear seat too though you don't have a use for it, cheers phatke30!

Where abouts are you located buddy? might be able to give some leads where to get one if your in queensland, cheers phatke30!

This is a common problem with the aftermarket intake manifolds, i'm assuming its fouling/touching where the bolts go for the manifold/extractors? if its a redline, and never been on a car before, there is a lot of cutting, machining to be done, have you checked the manifold face thickness (where it bolts to the head) as opposed to your extractor face thickness? you should be able to get away with the manifold you already have, sounds like you just need to persist with the manifold to get it right, if possible it would be great if you could post up some pics so we can all get a better idea on what's going on, cheers phatke30!

It's always a MUST to disconnect the vaccum advance (vaccum hose) to the dissy when timing an engine, gives a more accurate reading, cheers phatke30!

good point, ???????????????????? cheers phatke30!

bus's always beat me.

another pull out! Whats going on? There won't be anyone going to the dinner if this keeps up........... :dance: And jippy baby.........................he he, cheers phatke30!

Just over a week to go...........................

I thought that too, front wheel drive offset, cheers phatke30!

Looks like that trd cam would also need matching gears and chain to suit aswell, cheers phatke30!

every word you said..........so true lol! cheers phatke30!

+ homemade throttle bracket and jets to suit the carby, cheers phatke30!

Majority of/or almost all ke55's have either auto crossmember bolt holes or either manual crossmember bolt holes, but not both! cheers phatke30!

Hi fella, this has been discussed since the dawn of time, did you do a search? This should have been under general mechanical mate, anyways the pcd is 114.3, cheers phatke30!

Just hope we don't pass any sheep innocently standing in a paddok........................... Glad that your a definate comer, oh and dougy, you coming with me or driving one of your own rolla's? cheers phatke30!
