leigh Posted October 18, 2006 Author Report Posted October 18, 2006 finished this off this arvo! Took me abit of time welding on the lower Spring seats! Both are now on the car! :D Just need some new pads! My Co driver! ;) Quote
cuzzo Posted October 18, 2006 Report Posted October 18, 2006 Arent the ra60 struts too long putting out the steering geometry.?? Quote
leigh Posted October 18, 2006 Author Report Posted October 18, 2006 I'm unsure? I got the struts for pretty much free! Only had to buy the disks! So i thought it was worth a shot! If it doesn't work out, won't have cost me much! Quote
SLO-055 Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 i reckon all you'll find is you'll have some positive camber. easy fixed Quote
leigh Posted November 12, 2006 Author Report Posted November 12, 2006 (edited) Didn't get alot of time this weekend! Got called into work :D Not fun when traffic light polls are level with the ground! ;) Turned the motor over today! and started making up a jig so I can make the Lower control arms longer! Thanks for the info Shane (OKE055) :) Also got a set of cheap King springs to go in! :lol: On the down side the 3k in my wagon is not looking to healthy! Starting to spit oil all over the fire wall! :D Edited November 12, 2006 by leigh Quote

leigh Posted February 10, 2007 Author Report Posted February 10, 2007 Well, thought i had better update this! Lots been happening lately, have moved house (so now i live at the same joint as where my coupe is and don't have to drive to get there like before) ;) , my wagon now has a new motor, carby, radiator and diff! Was getting very tired! Now on the coupe i have completed pretty much the back end of the car! waiting on some new sway bar link pin bushes and she will then have her feet on the ground! Installed a new radiator out of an AE92, fits really well! Got pretty much all the wiring sorted apart from 2 wires that come off the dizzy!?! Not sure where they have to go! Recovered all the panels inside to cover the not so nice white vinyl! Quote
jamesrolla Posted February 11, 2007 Report Posted February 11, 2007 looks great man, making good progress, you might have to move your radiator up a bit though or you might have problems with it been to low?? Quote
Taz_Rx Posted February 11, 2007 Report Posted February 11, 2007 Yeah, you need to have the cap as the highest point in the water system. otherwise you'll never bleed all of the air out of the system. another option would be to put some sort of bleed nipple on the thermostat housing. Quote
leigh Posted February 12, 2007 Author Report Posted February 12, 2007 ah! thanks guys never thought of that! Ill fix that tonight! Quote
