January 30, 201214 yr Author comment_581059 Yeah i think i'll definentally be after yours sometime soon, These will do for now though, sick of freaking exhaust mani leak :glare: Report
January 30, 201214 yr comment_581061 Well it only takes a small warp to make them leak....... Have you put a straight edge over them in all directions? Report
January 30, 201214 yr Author comment_581063 Nah, I pressed them back into shape, sat them up against the head and all 3 mateing surfaces are flush, not even a 1mm gap anywhere, i've got a nice fat gasket for it so i reakon it should all pull down relatively well :hmm: Report
February 2, 201214 yr Author comment_581723 Extractors are on! Took almost a whole day to fit! :glare: They wouldn't go on, hitting the body so i had to cut them off a bit past the collector and weld a new lower section on to fit the ke10. Got them on and they fit beautifully! Clear the body, pitman arm from lock to lock, starter motor and everything :blush: But then, The inlet manifold wouldn't fit inbetween the flanges :glare: So *carefully* i shaved down the sides of the flanges enough for it to fit beautifully. All's bolted up and running now :cool: Report
February 2, 201214 yr Author comment_581724 Oh! Also pimped out my windows while they were out, The hardtuned one came with my hoodie so i just stuck it on. Waiting for my datsun one to come in the mail :lolcry: Report
February 3, 201214 yr Author comment_581957 Couldn't do too much today but started trying to sort out some stance. Jacked it to 2" lower and that's how it sits. With 175/50's and a mild roll i'll be able to go 4" lower with ease :wink: As far as the front end goes, 165 or 175/50's will allow me around about the same lowerage. Should sit alright :cool: Edited February 3, 201214 yr by Jono.C Report
February 3, 201214 yr Author comment_582042 Cheers guys! Yeah it's ready for paint besides the roof. Once I finish that the guards and roof will get some paint, and on the right day the whole car will get a further 3 coats all over or so. But for now I'm still just buying tons of stuff for it :P Report
February 6, 201214 yr Author comment_582490 So i've been thinking about this, The 5k will be fun but it's not going to do everything i want to with this car. So i've had this idea in my head for a while that i've been trying not to do. But after talking it over with some mates lately, It seems idea. It's not toyota, it's turbo, and most people hate them :lolcry: Will start work on it after the car is rego'd with the 5k, i'd prefer to leave it til then so i can do it properly and do it right.
