Sometimes its hard not to make these.

150K on restoration and they couldn't find any matte black paint? :laff:

overrated, cool fender mirrors!

Might make it if there is some interest, ending 10 mins from my house is nice too :laff:

Nah just wondering if someone had put a thermo on as it might not be kicking in. The heater hoses shouldn't be causing a problem, though it may pay to pull one off and flush it. Possibly you have flushed your system but not them and some build up has come out of them. But in all honesty it sounds like a radiator problem. Only other thing I can think of is to find someone with one that works and swap them over and eliminate the possibility that way. Where are you located, someone here may be willing to help Maybe try putting a wanted ad up on here and you may be able to get lucky. Worse comes to worse I think you could gets your reco'd for $80-100 ish (i think, I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm out) which is 1/3 the price of a new one. Or shell out for a freshy. Depends how far you are planning on going with your car. :y: Reed

Disconnected heater hoses should be ok unless they are plugged up. Are you running a radiator fan off the engine pulley? Or is it an electric thermo fan?

take the radiator out and flush it really good, put a hose in the pipe with something wrapped around it to create a seal and blast the insides out, rotate the radiator on the edge flushing on the side uspide down etc. Then repeat for the other hole. Leave the radiator cap on. Also take out your thermometer and put it in a cup of hot water and make sure its opening. While the radiator is out, reverse flush your engine, same as like the radiator, flush through the top hose then the lower hose. Make sure when you refill the radiator the car is flat or nose up to prevent air leaks. Try all that if its still running hot prob time to reco the one you have, or find a good 2nd hand one. EDIT: If it hasnt had it done recently you may as well do the oil / filter while you are at it. Good luck. Reed

maybe ask on here??? http://www.boatkb.com/

i owe 4500 back in NZ.

So much easier to use crowie55 money :lolcry:

Looks overrated, so jealous. So cheap. So lucky...... bastard. :laff:

Ha ha ha was this from the link I put up? If so, score got a good home, if not, score got a good home!

Chrome ones = awesome.

Curious...what king of engine? I've seen diesel ones from your part of the world. 4Kc, 4Ac???

Mission. Thought about grinding it in the car......:laff: Decided to pull finger. Wish I had some paint to tidy it up.... meh

Yeah cheers Justin, was pretty straight forward after all. Apart from the spring, but I'm resourceful and never throw any bits away. Was driving home and went to snap third :blinks: I dunno WTF is going on there :lolcry: Looks like someone extended it??? Oh well I'll file it down and have a shorter one :cool: Last thing I expected!

Fitted the fuel/boot release. Fuel flap didnt have a spring so I rangi'd one up. Works overrated! :laff: Rangi Spring

Where the expletive are the levers meant to mount? Figured it out, :y:

There is no short stroke shock that will fit in the ke70 strut, I'm pretty sure its a 49mm diameter not 51. Hence why everyone converts to ae86 or xt130 struts.

+1 pics please.

Nana visor FTW. :y:

Its taking up to 3 days to receive a picture message from my phone to my other phone, both on the same account. (Vodafone). One good thing about the shit weather in QLD, no cyclists.

My boss pays utility rego on his 3cyl Suzuki Mighty Boy. The same as his Isuzu D-Max. :blinks:

Nice wags but a bit pricey I bet
