TOMsGPTurbo Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 Ok guys, I've begun to source parts for Maxi's rebuild.... because I will stretch my budget I can't afford to pay for labour (all u money hungry members can push ur back button now!) so I need your help... and to make it even better I thought we can make it into a Rolla Help / Tech day.. were we all can learn how to put in suspension shocks and springs.. replace a bush or 2, put in a slave cylinder and bleed it, plug a WRX Turbo on a custom made manifold and plug up all the oil lines. I hope this doesn't sound like a win win situation for me alone... frankly it is because I get help on something I don't know.. but I think it would also be a win win situation for someone who is my shoes.. and will be one day.. And I have been advised by my boss (gf) that if maxi does not get fixed.. he will be sold sob :fuzz: So say :D to selling him.. and lets get Maxi on the road and kicking some non Toyota arse and making a name for Rolla-Club! Thank you for listening to me raving on. Tommi P.S: I will be hosting a BBQ for all members coming.. umm just quick note that I have no tools.. no car stands.. no engine holder things... umm and a single garage.. lol so I may need a little hand there too.. :rolla: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

demuire Posted April 14, 2004 Report Share Posted April 14, 2004 I'm willing to help if I am free (which is not much these days), but like Justin - don't know too much. I have *some* tools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickAE86 Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 i doubt i'd be of much help but i'd like to come along to learn a few things and lend a pair of hands :D i should have a few tools lying about the place also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOMsGPTurbo Posted April 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 Npz :D I'm thinking the only really hard part would be working out what oil line goes where on the turbo kit.. well I hope that will be the only hard part. hmm maybe also moving the air con radiator thing to fit the intercooler piping.. but i have a plan! to use a bracket lol :rolla: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOMsGPTurbo Posted April 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2004 Alright guys, I have to give back the Ford and that means Maxi will need to be fixed, I need a hand with bleeding the clutch slave cylinder and also a hand to put in the shockies and springs. I'll call around tomorrow and work out what to get.. looks like I'm going to be doing Maxi in this order: Clutch Cylinder & Tyers and next fortnight Shockies & springs Will keep you posted.
