Gang members also have access to the information, you could try your local motorcycle club? ‘Significant breach’: NZTA employee passed on personal details for drugs | The Post VTNZ conducts review after privacy breach by Head Hunters' ghost unit - NZ Herald

Can't find out owner nowadays unless you are popo etc.

Id have to do something with the intake as the ports are different?

Here https://www.nzta.govt.nz/vehicles/how-the-motor-vehicle-register-affects-you/who-can-access-register-information/ but also I wanna do a plate check/car jam before buying so mostly idiots idioting

Still can find it…. can opt out of being searchable from memory

Why do people blur their license plates in photos when selling cars? Is it still necessary to do this, or was it only really a thing in the days of being able to find out the owners info through the post office?

FYI FD irons and housings are the superior items, Irons more meat to port for one.

I'm sure even you can save 135$

They run waste spark with an ignitor

It's not the transport, it's the accom. I tent because I'm a cheap arse

@Mof just do this.

MX5's can fit car engines np! Such a practical car.

fuck yeah, off the the riverhead tavern in no time!

It's 4 months away. Better start saving

Ride the bike up/flog a ride

Don't be a fgt

How it started ^^^ vs how it's going So I mentioned to Dad that we needed to get the leg off to see if the driveshaft was rusted. I didn't mean now. Dad decided now was a great time. So we've spent however long it's been between that post and this post pulling it apart. We've split the top of one flat head machine screw, broken a bolt, scooped out a couple of cups of this weird shell/grease mix, poured the driveshaft out as a fine powder of iron oxide, and now we're trying to work out how to remove the machine screw with the broken head to release what I'm gonna call the pinion gear.

Since day one of ownership the Moke has always whiffed of fuel when parked in our garage. At first I attributed the issue to the cork gasket on the fuel cap which was badly shagged. I ordered a new one from Minisport but it made no difference. I began to notice that the smell was particularly bad when the tank was anyithing above about half full. We lived with the problem for a good while until one day I decided it was time to do something about it. Crawled underneath and removed the under tank cover plate for a quick look see. Sure enough there were signs of old fuel drips on the inside of the cover plate. At this stage I suspected the problem to be the sender unit rubber seal that sits on the side of the tank. So out came the tank and I removed the sender unit and replaced the seal. Sadly still no luck. In desperation I decided to drop the tank one more time, then filled it up with fuel to just past the sender unit to see what would happen. And .... a slow leak from one of the spot welds that hold the tank sender locating collar in place. I ended up chucking some JB Weld over the spot and that solved the issue.

I am also in the same boat, except I don't know what

Because me and hannah are broke after a summer dealing with you know what. I want to come along and hopefully it might happen but right now it's not the most important thing in our lives. I am however superstoked for everyone that its going ahead.

Those could fit the bill, are they run individually or in a wasted spark config and what are you wanting for them? Maxy is a bit of a hoarder/hotrodder/tight ass so I'm pretty sure he will scrape something out of somewhere, but good to have a backup plan.

Ok soooo, I have a v8 Corolla project that's been off the road since 2010, a Lifan go-kart project, and a couple of later model Corollas sitting in the driveway to tidy up and sell among many other things so I decided that grown-up thing to do would be to buy another project. This one is 2-stroke, something I know a whole lot less about, and as old as my Mum. Dad is a boatbuilder, so it was much easier to get him on board for this project, and he's even let me store it in the woodworking shed. The guy selling it priced it based on what he'd seen a fuel tank listed for on TradeMe. The motor turns over by hand, but the prop doesn't turn, and it sounds like it's a shaft rust issue. I'll dig into it at some stage, but for now creating a thread on here was much more exciting than actually working today. I see the Seagull Barrys race them, so it might be a good chance to buy a silly little boat to put it on.

Soo i did some backyard hardness testing with various tools and the housing with the BIG wear marks or step wear whatever you call it is easily scratched with relatively soft metal, slightly harder on the unworn surface on the outside but still scratches, another plate will not scratch at all with the same tool (screwdriver), (not very scientific haha), but the plate that scratches easily and is worn, shows signs of having been sanded or something in the past. Need some hardness testing tools for potential 2nd hand housings to check them. This leads me to believe someone may have surfaced one or more plates and ultimately removed some of the surface hardening, i could measure widths as well and other things but it still remains that ill need new plates anyway due to the cracking and exessive wear, potentially i could save one but ill see...Im no expert, maybe not even an amatuer at rotarys, but this is how i make sense of it ...

I have some VR4/Evo coils if you wanted to run them

The ECU has arrived, consider me impressed. The micro USB is a bit janky, but that's neither here nor there. It's been fitted with a VR conditioner and configured to suit the Toyota 24+1 trigger setup. It connects to TunerStudio which I'm quite happy to see has Mac support. Now I just need to resuscitate a laptop, as I don't think my Mac Mini will work very well in the car. I went and saw Max on Sunday and we stood and stared at the two disassembled dizzies for a while. The guts of the 4AGE dizzy are too big to fit in the 2TG dizzy, so it sounds like there is going to be some sort of choppy choppy sleevey sleevey action going on. We're looking at potentially cutting the 2TG dizzy off at the red line, turning the blue section down and turning the base of the 4age dizzy down to be joined with a sleeve and joining the two dizzy shafts somewhere in the mix. Max also pointed out the oil port on the side of the 4age dizzy for lubrication and told me he was gonna lie awake at night designing something in his head. I guess my next step is to start stripping the 2TG loom down and working out what I'm keeping, what I'm removing and what I'm adding, along with what is already in there that can be reused. I'm already planning to run the map sensor and IAT sensor off the AFM wiring having done this previously on a Silvertop to Blacktop 4age swap, and I know I'm gonna need some more injector and ignition wires.
