  1. me thinks you probably won't have to worry about running too hot. it was 8 degrees for most of the day today!
  2. This household is behind japan. They are a slim chance. I agree with slovakia, pure luck! more time with no sleep!
  3. The admins and mods of course, and YOU TE278U you know who/what/where/when and why Boo
  4. but they stick rods down the holes....sorta like a medical condition you can pick up from not so nice girls!
  5. Luckily my job knows I'm a grumpy C**t for the 4 weeks. I think Germany have it on paper with Osil. But as I said, I'm now light blue!! see you on the red eye Chobis Boo
  6. guessing about fidy bucks. Get them to give it a full clean while you're there. New engine and clogged radiator = fail!
  7. Update, I wasn't trying to start a bitch session. 'roosa. I met you in Jan on the cruise. Your head is screwed on tight, but we all follow our own shit. be cool! I've now become Argentinean. No I don't like Maradona, but I think they've got the chops to do it. What do I do in my spare time? Well if sleep time is spare, I sit up watching the cup. It's one month of no sleep every 4 years. Stoked Italy are out after the last cup thing against Australia!! I hate no one! Just some teams give me the shits! Boo
  8. definatly imported. Nah I'm being gentle to the new engine. I'll slip the new one in tomorrow and get the gaskets during the week
  9. Quick update. I finally got the cooling system sorted. I got the water pump, thermostat, radiator and all the hoses. I got it up to operating temperature, and realised the rear welch plug is leaking and.........the engine is a little RINGY! I was setting the tune and noticed big puffs of blue smoke on every rev up. SHIT. No RWC next weekend. I've got an unknown 3k, so I've pulled out the shitty one and will get the new one layed in tomorrow. Hope it works
  10. Yep, we win nothing. Yep, we're useless. My care factor is zero. At least we made it to the finals. We're that country at the bottom of the planet that nobody rates. So at least we can turn up and hopefully give some team the shits. Sorta reminds me of 'rollas. The car nobody thinks of becoming a cult!
  11. No we don't need any racists comments. Are you watching the world cup? I'm personally supporting Australia. And am barracking against the cheating French, due to the handball in qualifiers against the Irish!! boo
  12. I spy a silver fern. I won't hold that against you. LOL. I'd love to see an early ke35 front on the sedan. good luck with it!
  13. not really an answer, but take your plate to a brake shop. I had a corona g'box on a holden red motor and was able to mix clutch and pressure plates off the shelf. I'd guess there is a clutch plate out there
  14. MX32 Cressida YR22 Tarago HJ75 Landcruiser KE35 'rolla KE50 'rolla So that would be 5
  15. I actually changed the frame because I only had one seat. Took about an hour. http://www.rollaclub.com/board/index.php?showtopic=36864 see post 13 & 14
  16. 4 years :)
  17. My doors are cool. Looks like it had a hit and repair in the 80's. Drivers door is red inside, I've been doing alot of mix and matching of parts. Boot seal is very similar to corona liftback. Also the liftback boot release is the same. Cable from the drivers seat! Have you got a picture of the bars that the back seat locks onto. I've modded some from an N10 pulsar, but I want originals. Your blue machine looks the business!! Mine will stay silver. But I think it'll need a spray soon!
  18. Yeah, I don't think Toyota put their names on radios until the 80's. I've got a little mp3 transmitter that plugs into the cig lighter, so I'll hide some speakers in the back where the originals are and use the original FM. I haven't checked the tape deck yet, but I've got heaps of old tapes :) The rego. I really want to use it, but I think vicroads charges 400 bucks to re-issue the plates, even though I have the plates. My hardtop has original B/W plates and was registered 1 month before this one. That will cost 90 bucks to transfer, so economics may dictate me going with that. It's a shame because the plates are in such good nick. Maybe one day!
  19. Things are progressing. I finally sorted my water pump, 3k pump from ebay, 37 bucks delivered. Chucked on some new pads and wheel cylinders on (KE50's are not listed) matched them up with poobird cylinders. ripped out the interior and gernied the f@$k out of it. Just tackling the bodywork before RWC. When I was gerni-ing under the guards, one of those magnetic key holders fell out. Bonus spare key! Does a ke rolla exist that doesn't rust near the boot seals? Oh and I'm showing off my 1977 sound system
  20. here here!! a little bit goes a looong way boo
  21. how I've done it. Mark out 1 km exactly. yeah thats the tricky bit. Set the trip meter to 0. Drive the 1km. See what the trip meter reads. Use the + - percentage to work out the inaccuracy. I know analogue gauges can be tricky, but a very good indicator.
  22. Hey Ben, I checked centre road today. No luck. there was a new slanty, but it had a silver ferris tape deck. I looked in early 80's luxury but they all had Toyota radio/tape combos. On the plus side I saw a crown with a dial radio, that self seeks. if you ever get the chance to see one of these work, do it. they are super cool. Also had radio controls in the back of the console for the back seat! good luck, I'll keep my eyes out, Boo
  23. I have a non Vaseline hard on. Looking good E!
  24. 8 track? Did it come with tapes?
  25. Dispute. Aussie assembled 3k's came with Bosch, imports have nippon denso. either will fit into the block.
