Sounds like piston slap to me. I had a 4A-C that would knock around 3000-4000rpm.

I second AE70's motion. So much easier to pull it out as one unit.

Pay craig's flights and he'll have it going in 2 hours no worries :jamie:

My plans are for a twin SU supercharged or turbo 4K. Not sure if it'd work well or not though but willing to give it a shot :jamie:

Well, it can work. You just have to get the throttle shaft seals installed so it doesnt leak when under pressure. Do some research on the MG Metro Turbo and you will find it is a blow-through SU turbo set-up :)

Haven't fitted it up as of yet due to lack of funds. You'll need to change your brake master cylinder to a bigger bore as well and you can't run anything smaller than a 14 inch rim on them. Basically, I'm going to attempt to use the KE20 LCA with the RA60 steering knuckle and strut, shorten the strut 40mm, put a 20mm spacer in the bottom of the strut, put some AE92 short stroke struts in, weld on a coil-over sleeve kit and get adjustable camber plates and that should do the trick hopefully. That upgrades the front brakes from 200mm Solid Discs to 258mm Vented Discs. For the rear I'm gonna shorten some KE30 axles for now, and put KE55 drums on which will upgrade the rear drums from 200mm to 228mm until I get a decent diff sorted out.

RA60 celica strut is my choice of weapon :)

Chuck that in the wiki when you get a chance Cameron. Handy bit of information there.

See JiP, thats the type of person he doesnt want. That there would scream to me, "can't trust him".

mmmm, capri *droolz* I still plan on getting one at some point. V6 model k thanks. :)

Definitely not a fan of either cars. *shudders*

I had a slight incident with my bonnet flying up. Repaired most of it yesterday, just gotta get my body repairs fixed and i think i'll be securing the bonnet with wire for the trip just in case it decides it wants to fly up again.

Gee, you're game. Haha. Hope you do find someone up there or close-by to fill in for ya while you're gone. :)

You were here and didnt let anyone know? Shame, shame, SHAME! :)

Got my new parts. Decided a pair of bonnet hinges was in order and the bonnet support mechanism. All up - $50. Bonnet is twisted though :)

Its proving to be a bitch. Trying another wrecker now. I'll let ya know how I go.

I swear I'm having no luck with this freakin' car! Today my bonnet decided to unlatch itself and now its rooted. Bent corners by the cowling and I can't get it to open up. :) EDIT: Got it open! L/H Bonnet Hinge is also bent.

Ahhh, Deafening Silence. I know Stew and Josh :)

And your mates band was called?

He's after the piece of metal that goes between the steering rack arm and the tie rod end. And for the love of god this is the last time I look at a topic that doesnt state WHAT THE PROBLEM IS! How about you edit the topic Tmac101 to say "KE70 Steering Rack/Tie Rod End Issue" or something to that degree?!

Damnit, I knew what I meant :)

What Clint said. If you do something that is going to cast a spotlight on this club, I'm sure the founder of the club wouldnt be too impressed that you've now given the club bad rep.

You've almost been watching too much Fast and The Furious, Casey

Well, I was at that show at the lizard lounge. :) If you stayed until A Red Dawn was on, you would've seen me up on stage filming for them :P

Yeah well, I'm currently not working :hmm:
