Probably the front Iron has cracked by the water jacket. It’s a common weak point from casting. That was the cause of my first rebuild.

I went Link Can Lamba sensor in mine. Yes pricey, but 100% worth it if you are spending anyway.

Dem plates though…
according to car jam that’s a 26b monster J port quad turbo. Noice!

Howdy y’all.
it looks like we have ski guests that weekend. So I haven’t voted as I am a maybe. Our friends haven’t actually booked theirs tickets yet so they might pull out. Which means I would be a last minute yes.
Hence why I haven’t voted yes. I’m probably going to be a no. Sorry team.

Thanks for the regular updates. Often people ask for help. Get it but never say what worked and what didn’t!

I’ve just started building USS Voyager. It’s not 1/24th scale but I’ll punish you all with my terrible slow progress anyway.
You’ve been warned!

Indicators were working perfectly.
Add radio, now they don’t work.
I assume you removed the radio to check that they didn’t start working again? (As that is old car 101 when it come to electricery)
Step two is check that all indicator bulbs still work and none tripped out about getting sounds. Check the simple stuff first.
Working then add something then not working sounds like you have shorted something out. That can be hard to track down.
As previously mentioned, look for new/odd/weird wires and connections. They are where the problem will likely be.
Add British car and Lucas electric bits and the ‘likely’ becomes a lot bigger. (Anyone mention oil leaks?)
Please do report back and let us know what you do try and what obviously doesn’t work.
Good luck and drink beer.

The most important first upgrade for one of these is a couple of lumps of 4x2 under the end of the bench seat on the drivers side to off set the years of sag.
Also…
ROAD PACER!
Just saying. This would solve all of your 202 problems.

TWINS!
Barry is the second owner and we had a great Barry chat. A+ would trade again.
Oh, and he daily’s the F out of it.
Barry’s mate showed up in a Kei truck with a 2” lift kit and bigger wheels. When I’m in my 80’s I want to be like Barry’s.

Potential interest in a Hanmeets. Would be bringing my work car though as (free gas) it was a long slow drive to chch in the little red Mazda and would be a nedzillion dollars to bring the 7. I would get to visit all of the gas stations though in the 7…

If you go for a hoon to Hyper Drive they will (probably) have all your roof racking needs.
Our surf was the shape before but (apparently) the viscous fans on these is a weak point. More Barry surf’s might know more.
A nice set of Reccaros buckies will look good up front.

If you want big horsepower with zero torque, might I suggest the humble 13b?

1 year wofs for cars that are 10 years old. This is a rolling date.
6 months wofs for everyone else. While we are responsible motorists, you only have to look at the state of some of the cars and vans driven around here that shows there is a blatant disregard for maintenance when it comes to new New Zealanders and tourists.
