  1. While I was busily occupied Matt and dad were assembling and mounting the front bar and fitting the locks / regulators / glass etc. to the rear doors.
  2. After I finished the headlight frames I started getting stuck into the front dash/body harness. Someone crazy mofo had cut off the wiring connectors for the dash cluster which pissed me off a tad, Had to sit there and solder each individual wire back on. (Not fun when there are about 5 sets of wires the same colour). Managed to get the whole harness ready to go back in next weekend..
  3. While I was busy with the headlight frames Matt was busy fitting the front brakes and new brake lines. He also started to test fit the new radiator now that we have the new hoses.
  4. During the week I took the front bar mounts to work and sandblasted / undercoated / painted them. Also took in the headlight frames and sandblasted / undercoated them too. Yesterday finished painting the headlight frames and put them back together. Next week I'm pricing all new Hella lights for the front end (Hella 6505 and 5612/100) and apparently Matt has new chrome rings to hold them in place..
  5. I recently had to fix Teddy's set because they were doing the same thing, Had to chop another holder and pop rivet a piece on to fix it all up..
  6. Wow, This is very impressive..
  7. It is a problem we are aware of, It has to do with images being hosted on the american server as opposed to everything else on the aussie one. It has a delay with how long it takes to update it and its a pain in the arse..
  8. Ouch, At least she is in one piece, Cars can be repaired..
  9. With a paperclip or a piece of wiring...
  10. Good to see you found the FAQ, A lot of hard work has gone into it... Welcome aboard ;)
  11. Here are some photos of the latest progress, Spoiler on, Rear bar on, Rear Lights In, Rear Light Wiring Harness In, Rear Fuel Sender / Numberplate Light harness in, Firewall rust patched, Side Air Vents In, Rear Door Chrome Moldings etc.
  12. Matt was telling me today, Sounds like she goes real nice :cool:
  13. Last weekends update: Got the front brake calipers painted ready to go back in and the engine bay body harness back in.. New Koyo radiator has arrived and new radiator hoses are coming..
  14. Looking foward to my $800 so I can buy myself a rollcab..
  15. Recently I've been buying the Super Works spanners from Supercheap (Supercheap Brand) The chicky that served me last time actually told me their gold series comes with a lifetime warranty.. I myself have a 25 Piece 1/2" Kincrome socket set I bought myself for work and have not had any issues with it. http://www.kincrome.com.au/web/catalogue/s...rtnumber=13417P All comes down to how much you feel comfortable spending at the end of the day. Have a good look around and see which socket set is going to best serve your intended use.. Also Nick would have some good input on this subject as he is the tool man :yes:
  16. The reason I said that was because I've seen the hat on a Datsun A14 engine before, From what I understand it may have come out on Bluebird TRX's..
  17. What makes you sure they are for a K motor in particular?
  18. Yes "in time" but its going to last ten times longer than the first bash and bog job it had.
  19. Rust is not going to come back through that fibreglass bog...
  20. Yes it does increase HP, It stops oil pooling in the head and also gives a lot more clearance between the engine and the strut tower.. And the turn is not that great that you need to redrill the bellhousing..
  21. Another youtube video..
  22. I only have the reverse light switch connected on my box..
  23. Here is an actual picture of the engine bay with all the goodies..
  24. Means it has the TRD upright kit fitted to the motor (Brings the motor into a more upright position) Also different intake manifold for the twin carbs..
  25. Thanks for your input guys, but it looks like the new gasket, replaced bolt and loctite has solved my problems..
