  1. ok, then like i said; go sr 20 just for simplicity
  2. this carb is off a Fiat 124 Spyder
  3. sorry, had to dig this'un up as i know a lot about these carbs. easiest way to tune a dft/dgv/dgav is to; turn your idle up to when it starts to miss, usually 1,200-1,800rpm turn your a/f mixture in or out until it smoothes out. if you went in, you need to install a smaller progression jet if you went out, you need a bigger one :angrybird:
  4. my last head was ground down to that point; i had to run 91 octane, retard the timing 12*, it used oil, smoked, ran like shit and STILL pinged. i found a virgin head and am much happier. oh ya, that was my original '69 3k head, it cost me $200 to have it rebuilt and i only used it for a week anyone want it?
  5. that page doesn't take me anywhere, jamie so the 1g-gte is an inline 6? if so, i'd got sr20 just for ease of conversion, parts availibility and drivibility
  6. hey i've got a first gen. corolla manual (up to '70) i bought of ebay hopng it would have lots of info on body and suspension. it focuses mostly on engine/trans. it was printed in austrailia and that's where i bought it. any interest at all?
  7. oh, and ancullen; Ron Jeremy is my freakin hero!!!!!!!
  8. hey, i LIKE shit beers; gimme a lucky lager any old day of the week!! too bad i can't find it anymore. where i live, you cannot buy alcohol. you have to drive across the state line to get beer and it's only 3.2 percent. i was making a play from Monty Python
  9. again i apologize i just value my car(s) more than human life....... :angrybird:
  10. i believe that was "penguin"
  11. "how much for the women? your wife, little girl, sell them to me, sell me your children!" another stupid movie quote
  12. another case in point; the night before i left my psyco g/f, i caught her f@$king some guy in the back of the jeep i paid 3,000 for. i wanted to kill them both, but instead i broke all the windows out of the truck she had the balls to try and sue me for the glass....... f@$king c**t p.s. she's now in jail as we speak 2nd dui in as many months...she called to say it was my fault because i left her i apologize for the offensive nature of these posts, i just feel very strongly that revenge is in order if someone screws with my car
  13. unless they f@$k with your car first. i agree that the person's car has nothing to do with whether or not that person is an asshole mess with the car, it's open season case in point; when i blew the original 200,000mi engine in my cricket, i parked at a local 7-11. i told the manager what was up and asked if i could leave it there until i got a tow he said, sure but to get it before 11pm, cause he would be off shift and it would be towed i thanked him and left. this was 8 am 4pm i went there with my dad and it was gone, i went inside and he said it made his store look like shit and was tired of looking at it. so he had it towed away. bob locked himself in the office and called the police(maybe 'cause i threatened his life) called the towyard, he towed it at 9am, 1hr after i left. i went there 9pm, drained the oil from the crankcase, cut the oil sending unit wire, drained the diff oil into a 5 gal bucket. next day i went to get my car and saw bob's truck on the side of the freeway....i never saw it again i feel no regret, he deserved it
  14. excuse me for sounding like a moron; but what did the 1g-gte come out of? i know out here the sr20 is supposedly the shit, if you can't go rotary (drags anyway) i don't know anything about the 1g-gte
  15. MY head's been ground to that point...the rockers had to be shimmed 'cause the pushrods wont fit under the rockerarms i will be changing this head soon XANY; could you tell me the lengths of the respective pushrods (datsun a12 to 4k) maybe i could just do that for now
  16. you should pour the brake fluid carefully around his/her windshield front/rear seal; it will eat the paint, attack the metal and dry out the seal. they will NEVER get it to stop rusting, and never get paint to stay in there
  17. amen, brother :angrybird:
  18. hold on a minute..... i know we got the k40 and k50 but i have seen a k51 from a starlet (what i'm using now) and a k61 (5 speed)from an EFI starlet....it has evenly spaced gears. the k61 has a totally different bearing retainer than the k50,51
  19. i was just thinking that, nick yes you ALL talk funny, drive on the wrong side of the road, invent wierd words for normal things, have AWESOME cars, and drink wayyyyy too much "fosters" (austrailian for beah) absinthe is highly illegal in california in any form, it is perfectly legal in oklahoma, but without the wormwood.......you guys are skaerf!
  20. i had a car with the plate that had "trd" in it.....and yes, it was a turd.... my buddy had a baja bug with "yip" in it; if you read that forward then backward it read "YIPPIE"!!
  21. RE: wayne's world; driving to the airport w/g/f; bohemian rhapsody comes on and i do the whole w/w thing g/f is laughing and calls me a dork.... i don't know what she's talking about :angrybird: ..... DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I ASKED FOR GREY POUPON BACK THEN??
  22. "i got a license; that means i can drive a cAAr" "did you bring me a monkey?"
  23. the ones i bought will fit right onto the stock exhaust; the collector is a clamp fit with a length of formed pipe reducing it to whatever the stock size was. you have to cut your original pipe down by the trans mount and clamp it on i threw mine away as i already have 2" pipe
