You have to differentiate between hate and opinions. i did come across as narky but oh well. plus if you "HATE" skylines and silvias i wouldn't expect you to get far in serious drifting.

 

Yes I "hate" skylines and silvia's but each to there own, there is other cars in the world that can and do drift perfectly fine :) I.e a chaser!!!

It's getting there slowly dave I have only just started working again, and all it needs done is ball joints, exhaust, and a spot of rust fixed, so it's not exactly cause i'm being slack, just when your not working it gets hard to buy shit for a car when you got no money!!!!

 

Further to the above alsowhere is the Rolla?

 

The rolla is long gone and wont be missed....... Much :P

I picked up my exhaust last week and fitted it up during the past week, I still need to get the over diff section or 'tail pipe' re welded onto the rest of the exhaust but here is what it looks like

I decided to change the spark plugs aswell hoping it would fix the rough idle, i found these.....

looks like all but one have been in the car since brand new hahahaha :bash:

 

I also pulled the strips off the doors for a cleaner look, but have run into the shitty glue crap that they use to stick them on

And last but not least mini spool for the xr6 diff :dance:

 

so the list sits as...

 

 

It got knocked back on

 

1. Lower ball joints rooted (i bought new ones today just need them fitted), - replaced whole arms and both ball joints

2. Indicator lense missing(typical late e series), - replaced

3. Brake pedal rubber worn, - changed

4. Surface rust on bottom of the p/s door sill - still working on it

5. Centre muffler is farked ( good excuse for a new exhaust) - sorted with a full 2.5" zorst and paceys

6. Steering wheel is starting to fall to bits - still havn't changed it as i don't have torx bits :banghead:

7. Steering rack is weeping (i have no idea where though) - still havn't found where it is from

8. Has a rough idle(possible coil packs cause it runs like a bag of shit from 40 to 60klms) - sorted by changing spark plugs

so was changing the steering wheel today and in the process the head of the rubber mallet i was using decided it was a good idea to go for a 10 second flight to the passenger seat bouncing into the windscreen and leaving a nasty little crack from top almost to the bottom

Getting there slowly mate. Trust me the cheap car to buy without rego hardly works out cheaper by the time ya get rego. I've replaced so many things on my ute to get it up to rwc spec. Would of worked out cheaper to of bought one all ready to go.

Yeah man all it needs now is a windscreen and the tail pipe of the exhaust welded back on and bobs ya uncle haha
