  1. try the wreckers for something cheap if not its only small should fit in your pocket....... could go electric like my car but will cost more and there is more fiddling about..... also try other parts distributors eg. bursons, global autospares, cheapa autospares etc etc etc a 4k fuel pump shouldnt be $160...
  2. mate had a silvia a while back it was worked by Nizzpro and the plates were {09RIP}..... as for zero grip...lol it sure didnt when you put your foot down
  3. i work in at southport prestige....... thers a new DBS aston gettin about with the plates 'BALLS' makes me laugh cos it sure has some big ones lol
  4. which car the white one or the green one????? the mesh or the MK1's...... imo there both top looking rims lol.....SSR for the win!!!
  5. may aswell get the radiator checked aswell.... mate had this sort of problem the other day in his mazda..... some guy said it was the head gasket... we didnt think it was so we replaced the thermostat, radiator cap and flushed the system....... car hasnt gone over the halfway mark on the temp since... JUST CHECK THE WHOLE COOLING SYSTEM TO BE SURE....
  6. yeah ive got the basic idea in my head... i was gonig to mod an ac braket and use the additional pulley you get with air-con on the crank to run the sc..... ive already got a descent 32/36 downdrapht weber...... I'm running a low pressure electric pump at the moment so ill proberly just have to fab up a hat that bolts onto the weber....... so with the carby situation..... because you have more air passin the emulsion tube it will obviosly be drawing more fuel into the system so intern i will need to pressurize the fuel bowl mre to cope?????? also with the boost passing through the carb will i be getting more problems????? eg.. seals... getting to hot or getting to cold???
  7. Hey all i was considering buying a new rolla then i thought f@$k that i already have a descent enough one so why not make it better....... i was gunna go down the 4age road but its pretty damn common..... I'm planing on re-building a 4k this year with all the bells and whistles...... My question is what is involved with doing a blow through supercharged set-up for example lowering the compression, choice of carby, lumpy cam not lumpy and fuel set-up?????? and how hard would it be. Also to those out there who have done it what sort of price am i looking at????
  8. hey all aint done much with the old girl really..... well rudds money is comin soon so i will be painting here soon.......... hopefully lol.. a may even be continplating on a new project...... :party: anyways ill get some shit done to it and get some more pics up....... :dance:
  9. hey mate some dick ran up my arse and bent my chassis..... cost me $150 to get it straightened..... but mine was only out like 2mm max..... all depends how badly bnet it is.... and I'm sure your car is worth more than $150 hope this helps luke
  10. caliper kits are pretty cheap..... and if its seized you may be able to work it lose then take it apart and clean the bores of the slides and piston.. if you not very handy on the tools I'm sure the brake shop wouldnt cahrge to much>>>>maybe lol......... if not get a workshop manual for the car and it should pretty much give you a step by step.....
  11. your piston may be seized causing the inside pad to stay on the rotor after your foot has come off the brake....... and then it could also be your slides which are seized which is causing the outer pad grab..... best thing to do is pull the calipers apart and have alook to be sure.... may have to get a caliper kit...... and do some light honing........also use alot of never seize on the slides :y: hope this helps luke
  12. Get a container and fill it to the brim with all the jdm goodness lol..... wont cost too much..... Just think of the love you'll receive from your fello rolla drivers :D

  15. most people get 32/36 webers...(i have one on mine and it works good just need someone to tune it for ya) you will also need an adapter plate......from memory you can use one from a gemini...... hope this helps and good luck with it

  24. hay mate check your fuel lines anyway you may have shit in the fuel tank(it is 20 odd years old).... also check you have no air leaks from your inlet manifold..... maybe get your carby re-jetted/tuned may have blockage..... just a suggestion but this is what i would do and have done before to solve a similar peoblem hope all goes well
