Im looking around at a few surfs etc, is there any other engines I should stay away from?

Cool cheers! Will dooo

Im looking at buying a hilux surf with a 3l petrol in it (3vz) I was just wondering if these engine are very good, reliable etc. I remember someone telling me ages ago that one of the engines the surf came out with were shit and to stay away from them. Just cabt remember which one it was. Cheers

Algud sussed it, just put new holes in bosskit

Ive bought a momo bosskit for my nardi steering wheel and the holes dont line up (as you can see in pic below) whats the best way to go about getting it to fit? Can you get adaptors ir anything?

Aw yeah haha sweet cheers mate

So I told myself I was going to stop spending until after new years. But the other night I decided to bid on these at last minute.. They are 14x6.5s, may look at getting wider lips in the future but im just going to use them as they are for now. Id quite like to polish the centres and lips. I have never done this before so was just wondering what the best way to go about would be? what to use etc. Also they only have 2 centre caps so if anyone has any id be keen to buy some http://oldschool.co....85-sigma-wagon/

Ok sweet cheers mate

Cut the sigma front springs you mean? And will I need to get the rear struts shortened aswell?

Small update haven't done too much to it yet, so far I have put on some roof racks and fender mirrors. Havent taken it for a warrant yet. Will be happening in the next couple of weeks, then time for low! So far I have only really considered compressed springs and shortened shocks to lower it. If you have any other ideas (suspension out of other cars etc) feel free to let me know

Alright sweet will let you know when ive got the 15s on J-W-G And your right fuel, it is an express. Its also registered as a light van. Its got rear seats and belts, although I suppose they could have been put in at some point during its life

Yeah most probably mate, you after some?

Discuss here ://oldschool.co.nz/index.php?/topic/40931-michaels-1985-sigma-wagon/ So I have been on here for a while now, reading through all your guys build threads etc and I figured its about time I started my own. So here I have a 1985 Mitsubishi sigma I got it about 2 months ago, and it was running like a sick dog when I got it. But have since replaced the spark plugs, distributor cap and rotor, new air filter (didn't have one to begin with), and pulled the carburetor apart and cleaned it as one of the jets was blocked. While doing that I found that the automatic choke is rooted so have just tied it open until I can find another carb. Also gave the engine bay a bit of a tidy up. Now shes running like a dream, just needs to be warmed up for a couple minutes in the morning due to choke being held open Only other thing I need to replace in the engine is this heater hose that goes to the waterpump (in pic below) as current one is rusted and leaks a bit of coolant. The hose comes around from the back of the engine. Let me know if any of you have a spare one yo Only other things I have really done to it so far is install a dash cluster with a rev gauge and a digital clock which 'Damien!' off here picked up for me whileago when he was getting some parts Old one.. New one and clock.. So the plans are to slam it on white 15 inch steelies (already have) with low profile tires, run some hub adaptors to pump them out to the guards abit. Fender mirrors (already have), roof racks and a woodgrain nardi. Wof expires soon so will get a new wof sometime next month before I start doing anything, just to make life easier. Then get her already for summer cruising!

Let me know what you think/ ideas etc

Alright cheers that's good to know!

Alright, so about a month ago I was driving my skyline and the windscreen started fogging up. I wasn't far from home so I drove straight home parked my car up. Let it cool down then checked the water and it was low. So I started topping it up and found that it leaks out of the frost plug (onto the gearbox, which caused steam fogging up the windscreen) So I know that the frost plug needs replacing, as it has come out a bit. But im just wondering what would have caused that to happen? and if it would have caused any other damage to the engine?

righto, so I have a 88 skyline which has an rb30det in it. The frost plug has cracked on the head so it needs to be replaced. the gap between the head and the firewall is not very big, so looks like the engine will need to come out, or pulled forward to replace it. I don't have the knowledge or tools to do this myself so was wondering if theres anyone out there in the south Auckland area that could do it? will pay you of course lol cheers Michael
