I was gonna put a set of simmons b45s on but I like the bling factor with these 17's. lol. I'm pretty happy with the paintjob too! :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Posted September 2, 2007 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 the wheels are major gay. but thats ok since your from sydney, and wheel sizes begin at 17" for you chaps :cool: with width stopping at 6.5" seriously though, no larger than a 15 on a k-series. the car will handel better (less rotating mass, less unsprung mass.) You also have to have the car jacked up so high so that the wheels will fit under the guards. Get some dish, it's an old school car so use old skool rims. this is my TA22 You be the judge jordan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anywayz I'm not about to go hooning around the streets like i'm on a freakin' race track or something I wanna keep my licence and my car in one peice so what do I car what it handles like It's my ride and it's how I like it. Personally I don't like the old school look, I like new things new look new music If I was to guess you'd probably drive around your old school car listening to old school gay music like Metallica or something like that. but I'm not about to jump on someone's thread and slag em about their ride or where they're from, seriosly dude not cool!

Mickoolz Posted October 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Bit of an update, I took her to get Engineered last Thursday and all went well, drove out there no problems! It was a smooth ride, very pleased. So he inspected the car and was impressed with it all so he sent me for an Emissions test on monday and it failed, The mechanic said the reading needs to be on 2% and it was on 8% so he needs to do a diagnostics test on her to see why she's running rich! I got a call from him today and he said that the fuel return line is too small and that it needs to be 5/16" instead of 1/4" which i'm hoping will bring it down a bit but I don't like the chances! I know when i got the motor off thriller there where a few vaccum hoses plugged up so I think there's gotta be more to do anyways. See how it goes, wish me luck!

Sweet as mate. I got her back today and it seems to have fixed the problem, looks like the return line was way too small and because of that the fuel was mixing with the oil. She runs heaps better now. Now its off to the auto electrician to sort out my ghost in the wiring, lol. Can't seem to get my dash lights and tail lights to work. I've tried everything, checked the fuse, checked the earths, check the resistance in the wires????? Can't figure it out so it's off to the pro's. The only new chrome work on her is the strip around the windscreen rubbers, is that what you mean? All the rest is factory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
