SLO-030

lildvl83 :P

Raven was telling me a mate of his had a 5k with twin carbs (dellortoes?) and some other work and apparantly fooled a few cops into thinking it was a rotor.

Great to see a good turn out for RC-SA.

Maybe Jack should move so you can see him with the blinds open?

Pretty much turned it into a 4 link set up. from what i can make of it, its pretty close to the caltrac setup. I will also take some pictures of Greenmac80's leaf springs we made at work. they have the Half rebound leaf fitted

Lookin good Ryan. Were the photos taken in the Kmart Karrulta Park carpark?

not if you replace the studs in your timing cover with bolts :P

I in no way endorse the infomation i gave to this bloke. he asked, i told him the results of the previous owners work. I work at a springmakers, no reason for me to be riding around on chops and flips. DattoFrog; People will keep doing this as they see it as a "budget option". Sure, its not legal, but it gets them the results they want. Custom car builders will chop coils a little to get the perfect stance. I've said it on another forum, chopping springs can be done safely. as long as they remain captive and are re-tempered before use.

Keen to see what this one reels out. your only 5mins away from me eh? :P

yep, what aaran said :P Need more c'rolla cap'n.

Lookin good man. I made up some 9mm spacers for my 38 and once the wheel was on there was SFA stud poking thru for the nut to grab on to. I went down to the wreckers and picked up a bunch of sigma studs. the knurl is right so they should be a direct swap into a corolla. apparantly 8mm longer than stock corolla studs.

as it goes around further it should get faster. the have the numbers around the outside like ...3...4...5...VTEC yo...BOOOM

I ran a 4K-H (3k head) with a stock cam and 4 into 1's. Could definatly feel it lacked a little in the bottom end but once the revs climed the motor really opened up and went (for what it was) 4-2-1 (tri-y) for daily duties 4-1 for high rpm spirited driving.

Spotted Bundy today..again. I was the guy in the white VN giving ya the thumbs up as yuo were turning off of main Rd in belair.

Yeah, the one i was after :D

Second from the top. the one under the main leaf. should get the car around level if you chop the fronts 1.5 coils Previous owner of my car flipped the 3rd and it was absolutelty dumped in the arse.

Carb sounds like a 4K-C. All the emissions stuff means its off a more recent engine. Manufactures don't make thinks more simple to work on as technolgy improves :D

as seabiscuit said, wait until you can afford it. Bet the missus wont be too happy if something screws up. But if you have your heart set on doing it now. Chop 1.5 coils off the front for 325mm hub to eyebrow and flip the 2nd leaf on the rears. with the front at 325 the rear should be around 320- 315 to get the rear sitting pretty.

Went for a trip to U-Pull-It today. Got some sigma wheel studs, Fingers crosses they knurl is the right size. also picked up a stock toyota tacho and modded it to fit in the stock late30/early 55 instrument cluster. Crappy pics but you get the point. Still needs a few finishing touches and a little mod to the front so that its not covering half of each number.

om nom nom. Lookin good.

Do you build your own engines or out source the work?

What let go on the 2TG? if the heads alright go for the 3TG. there are more and more T18's coming into the wrecking yards here = more 3T blocks.

Welcome guys. wagn, wagons = the shit :D

Spotted a KE36 wagon at UPI lonsdale today. was checkin it out. Feel the wagon love. Also spotted a KE30 speedway car on the back of a trailer on monday night. approx 12pm on Bains Rd and Panalatinga
