  1. Does this thing get around toowoomba?
  2. Haha, you been through 2 44's of it already?
  3. ^^ :y: Bit of a tooly thing to do unless you are running 9's down the quarter.
  4. Mine arrived today, looks awesome on the Lantra, id rather it was a corolla though. Might try and put a pic up.
  5. Were'nt ther only a small number of these made? Ive never seen one in the flesh before. Hell yeah with the 1jz!! And whats the name of the company in NZ you get your wheel barrels made up? Ive only talked to places in America and England. Thanks, Luke.
  6. Awesome, gonna be a sh@tload of fun, please keep posting! (i said please, so you'd better).
  7. Ive also been quoted (a few years back) $1300 for a set of Koni adjustables, never went through with it though.
  8. You should be able to track down one at repco etc relativly cheap. Have you looked around?
  9. It works off an exhaust valve, or butterfly valve in the exhaust before reaching either of the turbo's. Watch the vid, it explains it well. Once the smaller turbocharger is close to its limit or a pre determined boost setting, the valve will flow all exhaust gasses to the larger of the turbo's. Once the boost pressure drops from the larger turbo the valve starts to open and flow through the smaller turbo. I prolly didnt explain it very well lol. Anyway, back on topic, itd be cool to see a twin turbo 4age, twins or compound, either!! I think some setups just have the wastegate fully open on the smaller turbo once the larger comes on boost. I'm still researching a little.
  10. After my history with AE82's, its soooo great to see you guys with such an awesome lil car. You have done the stuff i didnt get to do :(
  11. Yes, i know. But you may be able to afford to buy a nice street/daily whatever, and buy a cheap shitter and spend fack all to get it handling and going sweet. If you can only afford to mod your daily street car, don't risk it on a track, all sorts of things happen! My mate had it happen at willowbank, his only car, huge ego, too much boost and a big bang. What I'm getting at, why would you invest so much in a streeter, then take it to a track where its almost certain to break, or for you to crash? I'm not sure how to type what i think atm, too many thoughts.
  12. Ok, i get that. Still, if he could afford to buy and mod a liner, why not just build or buy a track car? Hope he was insured!!
  13. I understand the GTR fascination, but...um...why are we looking at a wrecked skyline? Why was it posted? don't want to be rude, i just don't get it. We can all see these at wreckers, and streets where fkheads that can't drive decide to race. We saw one bloke 2 months ago in tbar wrap his R32 around a pole, wow, what a mess. Still don't get it........
  14. I'm honestly suprised your gearbox has held up to this already, still got a spare? Are you gonna up the boost a little with the injectors? Whats happening with the 2jz, been wondering about that! Luke.
  15. Spot on! First thing i noticed. But why so much fascination over a crashed liner? Just curious.
  16. Awesome job, really sounds like you know what you are on about! :y:
  17. 2 very nice looking corolla's mate, any other suspension mods on the AE92?
  18. Done!! Once i get it, on the Hyundai it goes!!
  19. Is it going to be a sin to put my sticker on my fiance's hyundai?? Or will it help show that i hate the piece of shit and wish she bought a rolla?? Hmmm :hmm:
  20. Is it in an AE71/AE86, or a fwd corolla? Either way, extractors + zorst, a weber if you can afford it, look at a cam grind perhaps. Like Des said, if its a points dizzy, pick up a cheap eleccy one. Might get a little more poke, but gotta weigh up the costs, and if its worthwhile. Good luck.
  21. Nice job bud, been wondering about this car. Need more updates haha....
  22. :y:
  23. Holy bloody hell.... People have balls to build shit like this haha, love it!!
