is $1450 expensive for a 7k?? I havent seen a whole lot of them about and therefore unable to determine a price, it was a carby one as well... or would I be better off going for a efi one?? I spose i figure this will be a much more straight forward conversion into a ke20? OR do the engine mounts still need to be modified? Just figure a 4agze will be alot more messing around... as I would be thinking of putting a turbo onto the 7k

Yea they did an alignment but thats about it, I'm guessing it needs a bit of a grease, Which I wil probably do myself this weekend coming up... Ben crazy busy of late =\

I usually find myself buying whatever is on the menu at work as we have our own cafeteria at work. This is getting quite expensive though, So I will start back up with making the Salad sandwiches next week I think.

Shagged gearbox? drove it to hard ay :P haha hopefully you tweak out all the issues and she is running sweet soon, thanks once again for all the effort the you guys put into this trip, it doesnt go unappreciated =]

Yea I have driven up there many times just not recently, so i recon I will suss something out soon and see if we can get some people keen for it

Na it would all be fine now, I might get my car fixed up and go and take a trip through there and find a reasonable course for a day trip cruise

Some great photos there man, was good meeting you as well, now we just all need to get a cruise going up the Grampians way haha

hahaha yep, iv been driving like a granny lately =[ just gone super sedate haha

Not to sure yet, will most likely give it a good clean up then sell it off. But I could still be running it for a little while yet, But all i know Is I want more power =] and before the next GORC hahaha

I think we all hope to see it soon =]

Hhahaha yea well, I'm thinking I will take it to a local guy here who is afamily friend and just get him to do a complete assesment and go from there.. once i get everything soughted out I will look into a 4age conversion

Ok so after the cruise I seem to have some squeaks in the rear leafs :glare: I'm thinking maybe they were not done right when I got it lowered... and also got a bit of a noise in the left front wheel when turning, and its really bad when doing a much tighter turn... Gosh I wish I knew more about cars so I could diagnose these issues myself On another note, over heating is no longer an issue, temp gauge did not go over the first line at all... So i am pretty happy with that

Looking great guys, really liking the process... can't wait to see the finished product

Thats an awesome shot, It was one of my favourite cars on the cruise!!!

Yea i know =\ i got to my car and it was further then I thought, so thought I would just leave lol

Hey guys, thanks for a ripper of a trip, my first cruise and it was great to put names to faces, and names to UID's :P I got a few photos just on my phone, I will upload them when I get home from work, but here are 2

Woop woop soooo pumped for this!! Really should go home soon and get some sleep haha, nothing energy drinks can't fix, oh yea and my endone tablets haha The only issue I have is bottoming out cos I'm low, but I do not care hahahahaha Car is all washed and looking sexy :) so will be giving it a quick run over at the meetpoint to make it al shiny for photos :)

Sweet!! The only issue I have is being toooooo low haha but that's ok :)

haha thats me =/ lol I'm going to stick to my seat lol

Heatin issue soughted!!! had a choice of 3 radiators in the end, put the one in from an ae71 and it has cooled the car down heaps!!!! doesnt even move from the first line and that was after a good 30minute drive at 100km/h and its a fairly warm day here, so I will be all sweet for the trip now =]

Ahh yea sweet, I find ,mine is a bit rough after going 2 inches but it looks wayyyy better!!! Cooling issue is all sorted, it doesnt move from the first line, and that was after a decent hard long drive =] So I am pretty happy with it

Ok fixed the over heating issue, got a radiator off of Clown and it works a treat! barely moves from the first line =] and that was for a decent 30 minute drive at 100km/h so I amm quite happpy with that... =]

Nps I'm bout to head to karova so I'm in town at the moment

Well the manifold was as loose as a goos, the 2 middle bolts were need to be screwed in around another 10mm :blinks: the leak is still slightly there but it is a million times better, I couldnt get any form of spanner or socket into the end bolts :glare: so I didnt actually put another gaset in it, my dad and I just couldnt get the 2 end bolts out! So it is still leaking a little bit, but no where near as bad, and my dad thinks it should be fine, It is also ideling alot alot alot better... Still need to suss out the over heating at the moment but I have all day to do that, so I should be sweet.. Thanks heaps guys for all your help

Cheers mate I just sent one back, will let you know how I go and if i need to head on down tonight... This forum is like a family, gotta love it!!
