OK, just rang RealPort Trades and they supply for both commercial and private sales, normal 3mm² 30m rolls is about 10.50 a roll and 100m rolls are $36.50. But the trace wires (white/black, red/black etc) only come in 100m rolls at $36.50 a roll 5/, 7 Streiff Rd, Wingfield, SA, 5013 Phone: (08) 8260 6355 I'll post this in the SA's recommended list, Haven't bought from them yet but the guy was really helpful over the phone

Automotive Wiring
Thanks man, i messaged my old boss and he said Realport traders on the corner of south and grand junction road supplies my old workplace, but i don't know if they do private sales. Will give them a call tomorrow and one of us should have atleast one supplier

Side Draft Weber Manifolds
Yeah they do linkage kits as well, was looking at some earlier today because i bought some from ebay and it was a pretty dodgey kit. See if this works: http://www.redlineauto.com.au/products/cat...y_list/ACEMIMKE has the link to botht the kits and manifold, but doesn't have pictures of the linkage kit.

Posting Of Work Available
Hey, didn't know where to put this so i'll put it in here. I really need to ask a moderator or someone like that, but i'm starting uni this year and have a trade in auto electrics, for part time work i was thinking of posting my details so that i can see the amount of interest i would get in doing auto electrical work. Because i'm fairly sure i can't just post up my information, something to do with advertisement or something like that. Reading this back i don't know if it makes sense but you should know what i mean. thanks jono

My Ke
I've been reading quiet alot of these posts and seen alot of this sort of thing going on. Can't you lock the topic and privately message the person in question, this way heaps of other people won't be able to give their opinion. This is a forum, people come here for help, not on how to spell and how to be grammatically correct.

Anti-hoon Laws In Sa
i think you might of quoted the wrong person, but yeah that road. If your into semi legal off roading theres a nice little spot near Hahndorf, see if this works http:// http://maps.google.com.au/maps?f=q&sou...016512&z=17 Oh and after reading SLO's last post, nothings going to change with or without these instructions. If they said we'll shoot you on site for accelarating at a certain rate, people would still drive like knobs. So long as its safe you might as well help people out

Anti-hoon Laws In Sa
And what happens if you come across a cop that's having a bad day, it does happen cars just pulled over and defected....but then again why do people act like shit heads on suburban roads, and why do burnouts they don't achieve anything. Go out on the freeway for 10 minutes and turn onto a country road and go hard. I agree with you, we do need a place where we can go, but you won't get it for free. Think of the insurance cost, in Rovers (older scouts) we have a "sandblast" which is like a cheap mans rally and there are so many rules to deal with insurance.

Stiffer Strut Inserts For Ke30
The comfort shocks are 15% aren't they, the next ones up are 30%, thats all I know about inserts. People talk about changing the fluid and everything over, but don't know much about that

Upgrading Ke70 Headlights
You can get straight changover units from places like sprint auto's, i got some for my 35 for 20 bucks each. whacked some of those super white lights in them and now they're about 7 million times better. Providing you get your headlights aimed....
-
Ke70 Accessories Wire
Thats not a wiring diagram, thats some sort of electrical block diagram that looks useless. Put you test light into the end of the cigarette plug and see if its on all the time, if its ignition fed just use that, the acc wire that goes into the radio doesn't suck any current so no need to change fuses or something. If someone has a wiring diagram i can tell you the exact colour wire you can use and where it is.

Ke70 Not Starting
Take it to battery world and they can do a test on it to see if the alternator is charging, yes a voltmeter will show 13-14v but it can still fail under load. They will run a load test and all that, another thing is the battery in my car was doing strange things, it would start easy and at the end of the day i wouldn't be able to start it, even after 3 minutes of driving it wouldn't restart. batteries can be very weird, do you know how old the battery is, if a battery has been drained then charged then drained and then charged again a few times it will damage it and you'dd have to replace it. If you take it to battery world and they say its the alternator, rebuild it yourself, cost me 25 bucks or something to do mine by getting the parts from an auto electrical workshop. After you've fixed it i suggest changing the main earth lead over to a new one, charges better, starts better and charges better. Hope this helps Oh and another test is to test the voltage at the battery, then at the alternator if there is anything more than 0.5V difference between the two, replace the wiring from the alternator to the battery

Wheel Nuts?
Got the same wheels, and had to get the same nuts, the one with about 20mm of metal before the nut. When you go to the wheel place makesure they give you the washers aswell, otherwise that metal bit will be too long and hit the hub and not tighten the wheel on.

Ke30 Ke55 Brakes
Can you buy the girlocks from sprint auto's or something, or is the only option of getting them from another car?

3k Running Like Crap
A full engine rebuild fixed my ticking sound |blink| and +1 for thicker oil, Castrol have a 25-50w sport edge stuff. Works awesome, even reduced tapet noise on my pajero, and a guy at work swore by it increased oil pressure in his MG
-
Window Rubbers
Well the window rubber fitted perfect, unfortunately though you can't get the original strip so you have to use this other stuff they can supply, looks a bit dodgey cause the bead is round and the corners are flat. The picture below shows what i mean:

Rear Swaybar
Just a question, are swaybars worth it for the 200 or so you pay for them?

My Ke55 Hardtop
Wow...i wish my 35 body was like yours when i bought it, would save so much work. Oh and another difference is the front brake calipers are different from a 35 to a 55. 55 calipers are skinnier and bigger braking area. found out the hard way when i tried to fit dragways without a spacer ;)

Upi Spotted
Not the right section (i think), but saw a ke30 for sale on south road just south of the goodwood road intersection. he's selling it for 1500 and has had only 1 owner, didn't stop to have a look but looked pretty clean
