love ke70

thats what i said soulsearcher :hmm:

feeling overwhelmed by the whole project? let it lie. you'll just get to the point where u want it done, and ull be back into. forcing yourself to do it when not motivated leads to cut corners and an end result you know could be better. well...it can always be better, but u know what i mean... cheers, andrew

baking soda. it explodes when it hits the surface and cannot be reused but it also dilutes and washes away

soda blasting may be a better bet...

prime it then bog it. it really couldnt be simpler. then high build prime the whole thing.... show cars arnt made from metal...

another option is heat them up and quench them with a wet rag, can sometimes pops dings out...don't count on it though...

bog :D

does it cost to spectate?

brings back 1g memories hahaha. i guess at an unloaded 5000 rpm it wouldnt be as loud as we normally experience when flat footing it at 5K

i got a charcoal cannister u can have if u need it....or at least i should, dunno where the f@$k it is at the moment to be honest

i think I'm gonna be f@$ked, especially with the bigger turbo :D I'm excited though, maybe ill pass, can't wait to get out on a track, any track, and then lakeside :hmm:

pity sex des? a new low :cool:

but if ur lookin for an avenue to sell it off cheap... :cool:

:cool: itll be alright mate, i know ive been there too. i demolished the motor twice before getting the car on the road due to malfunctions. it does get better 8/

depending what I'm doing i might hit someone up for a ride, my car wont be on the road for this :cool:

until the white goes yellow...

paint it :cool: do it before its rego'd but after everything is sorted. nothing worse than driving around, and people saying, nice car, but would better with some fresh paint. full colour changes are a PITA, so be prepared to pay alot for it, or spend stupid amounts of time doing it. I'm doing mine now

just don't paint them :cool:

well, how do you know its the head thats f@$ked? and not a compression ring cracked, or a scored bore, or any other array of things? why do you think his motor is on its way out and not just aged but still good? i drove a 4k for around a year with a leaking headgasket, and used to scoop the foam off the top of the coolant every so often out of the radiator to make myself feel better. it had a slight lump at idle, but it still drove fine. the mechanic is right, its not worth spending 1K + to rebuild a 4K which is only slightly down on compression in one cylinder. its obvious this guy doesnt have alot of an idea about whats going on inside that engine of his, so why go scaring him that his motor is on its way out, when really, its just a lump at idle caused by a slightly low compression reading on one cylinder, this does not mean the motor is going to grenade itself. one day, yes but when is anyones guess :sob:

sounds like your a f@$khead mate, go get an idea and stop tryna to make yourself feel better about how much of a dick you are by putting other people down

2* wouldnt make f@$k all difference. doesnt sound like he did much at all...

go to a specialist automotive paint supplies store and start asking questions. sounds like you ahve jumped into this without alot of research, maybe search on google, spray painting car at home, rust repair, etc. save you making a pratt of yourself and/or getting ripped off. cheers

there motors with a lot more than 190 KW pullin rollas around mate :hmm:

happy birthday mate :hmm:

nope, like gregorys workshop manuals, tells you how to do things, and how to diagnose problems etc, can get the from autobarn or supercheap etc may as well start with the basics on this, change spark plugs, leads, points, dizzy cap, rotor button. its either electrical or fueling, the electricals is the easy side, fuel is the fiddly side, and u ahve to be relying on good electricals to get the fueling right, it can just be leads or spark plugs breaking down, or points pitted to the shit house.
