SLO-030

From what i've heard the 5K rods are preferable. Not 100% tho.

Yea, i knew about the springs being different. Thought they all came with the boosters? hmm. Almost got the new exhaust done. Just need a sleeve and some flat bar to make some mounts up.

I almost had my KE30 run off the road by some soccer mum in a landcruiser. Got the usual "huh, i was too busy doing my nails and making a sammich" kinda look. Grrrr.

Cheers mate :wink:

No worries mate. I had a KE25 once. Don't sell it, whatever you do. I made that mistake.

That one caught me out a few times. Not anymore......I love nail studded baseball bats!

bass4you, if you havent already, may i suggest having a look on www.proutes.com Some nice tonners on there, and a few events here in SA in the up and coming months. CHEERS Ryan

Hahaha, getting there. Just the bodywork to get sorted. Other than that i have 99% of the rest to go in. Managed to score a minty fresh windscreen and some front door windows including some tinted ones from Luc.

I have no spare time, Working on the cars and sleeping is very important to me....:wink:

Yep yep. Once all the panel work is straight and ready for paint, the whole lot will be final primed (2 pak primer + 35% thinners) then gone over with 600 on most of the body and possibly 1200 over the top half. Any more suggestions?

Good stuff man. Lovin ya work!

Pics Pics Pics Pics Pics Pics Pics Pics Pics Pics Pics :blinks: Did i mentions we need Pics Tally? :lol:

Looking good man. Were the 2 screws in the B pillar trim the only way of securing it? Mine just has a neat fold in it.

Sorry Evan, Couldnt resist. :lol:

Lookin good mate. Have a feeling i've seen this around the place, somewhere.

Did you get a pic Ev?

Easier said than done. sump will have to be dropped. assuming there are still studs in the bottom of the timing cover. Does sound like the only way it could be happening. spewwin'

yea, there is a welsh plug in behind the timine cover!

Lookin good mate. Top Work.

$11 for 2Kg of pellets or a 2Kg Brick. got 2kg of pellets and a brick. did a full car with a fair bit to spare. Pellets are preferable.

When we did sound deadening with dry ice, spread the pellets out. Wait 10mins and give it a few hits with the hammer and it just comes off in big chunks.

Alrighty. Went and had a talk to the friendly guys down at Lonsdale Auto Paints today. For 4L of HSV Racing Green it is around $264. For 4L of Poison Ivy Metallic is $406. The difference in price is due to the poison ivy has the Zirconium Pearl tinter, that alone is about $100/L snd there is almost 1L of the zirconium on 4L of mixed paint.

Cheers Josh, I have found a paint shop that can do it. But its almost $500/4L. Only comes in Basecoat as it contains Zirconium Pearls or something. If there isnt much difference in pricing, i'll go with the Poison Ivy. Just Love the colour.

Oh Shit!, what a shock. Condolences go out to all Phil's friends and family. Ryan

Yea, gonna go have a talk to the local auto paint shop friday hopefully.
