Autos are far better and cheaper in the long run just ask a taxi driver, ive had both factoty gas and after market and dual fuel is much better, less problems, better on fuel, also if you run out you can't walk and buy a can of gas, mine uses almost twice as much petrol as gas $ wise and it runs better on gas,

I have an 06 rtv that has done 310000ks so i think i can report on this, it weighs over 2 tonne in everyday use, fuel use is 6.5kp litre or $9 per 100k all around town so about as good as a new corolla, repairs so far, 1 set of front wheel bearings, 2 sets of front discs,1 cat, 3 sets of spark plugs, 5 sets of front pads, oil and filter every 15000k and auto service every 80000k, 2 headlight bulbs and one numbert plate bulbs, a set of sway bar bushes and sway bar links, i also pulled the ball joint boots of from new and put good grease in them, its just getting a noise in the diff but apart from that everything is perfect and it still drives good, overall a great car

do you have to sound so happy about it :jamie:

How about this for $8000 KE17 5k 5 speed very straight original car and its in brissy

sorry guys, mine was at home, i can hear a piston going up and down from inside the radiator, i think i need some head studs, managed a 12 flat at 116 but the 60ft is crap so its time for a convertor

looking good, just 1 question, will the calipers fit on the original side so that you don't see them from front on???

Hey mate hows the front brake upgrade going?? any pics

4.3s are in and overall it feels better 2400rpm @ 100k, tune is checked, it does feel a bit better of the line but saturday will tell, its a factory LSD shimmed to almost being locked, hope to meet everyone on the weekend

so XT130 lca's are the same length as KE30, why is everyone chasing them, i measured a set of sr141 arms and they are the same length, whats the trick, offset steering arms ??????

is there a listing on different length lcas that fit 30s 55s etc , i have searched but can't find any info, any help appreciated

see if Des can borrow a heat gun from work, then use soft sleel wool to finish it

Before you pick a wheel maybe you should pick a stud pattern, i have 2 15x7 and one 15x4 chalengers in 5 stud, the other front is embedded in the wall at willowbank

everything on the body is stock and no sign of ripples yet, the front x menber is starting to unpick itself and on the dyno it looks like the back doors are trying to open, in the process of changing the diff gears from 3.7s to 4.3s to get it of the line better, i'll be dissapointed if its slower than the manual, thanks for the kind words

Mine has a strange rubbery smell if i take of to quickly

Save me the pain of advertising on ausrotary, rust and dent free 808 wagon, 1.6l manual, round headlight pointy front, yellow with black interior, still has plastic on door trims, was pulled apart for a project but owner lost interested, all parts catalogued and bagged, i will organise photos but this is a very, very clean original 808 wagon, $3000 PM me or 0412722199

it has done a 12.4@84mph, i'm not happy but we'll see what i can sort out in 2 weeks for jambo, its in the 60ft best with nanual was 1.6 last night 2.6 if i can sort that out the mph will go up, does good burnouts tho 6000 in 3rd =200kph

went to willo last night, not happy with the results but we think we have some answers 12.4@113 but i've lost a second to 60ft, planning a change of ratios to get of the line quicker, 3.7/1 atm for a top speed at 6500 of 307kph looking at 4.3/1 for a top of 255kph

you do your work in the bush??? is that a tree

Going by the size of that side mirror how about we call this one DUMBO, very nice

How about WTF36 if you check PPQ it,s available

neways does anyone know how strict the engineer is going to be if i cut the tunnel to fit the 5 speed? And if they will even care about the 5K? Amar i have fitted a 5k and 5 speed to a ke17 and you don't have to cut the tunnel

hope your planning a big torquey motor, beefed up rhf spring and seat runners to help with the extra weight ???

can anyone confirm the the weight of a ae71 auto sedan

it shifts manually by activating the solenoids, the valve body from MV automatics gives a more solid shift, the slow change between gears is what kills them
