  1. Thought I had crossover pipe all sorted so did wee trial fit today found it ends up straight into sway bar mount. Fuck it re do it all. Turned out nice had a good few hours asphyxiating my self with argon loved every minute. Engine is now sitting at the perfect angle I can see it in garage from dinner table.
  2. Thanks I'll see where it sits in car as closer to firewall = shorter wiring back to controller and ecu. Wonder if turbulence from wastegate will be an issue.
  3. Sorry to Semi-hijack where would be the best place to fit the sensor on a turbo downpipe? Bosch type not 100% what ive got yet. Pipe goes straight down from the blue cap.
  4. If I can't figure out how to narrow the track out back I'd happily cobble some flares together to look like this using scumbag holden adventra parts. Only need 15mm to get tread under car 25mm to cover rim. 275's are slightly stretched on these 10" rims a 315/30 would fit with flares
  5. Are the thrust washers (in engine) shagged? Check endfloat of crank I battled clutch problems for ages because I didn't want pull a running engine out. They can fall into sump if your real unlucky engine will run fine for a while but you will add a couple off mm to your clutch stroke. See below not much too them
  6. What! You mean these brakes might be bad too.
  7. These might may just stay in Taiwan for now. So cheap yet not cheap enough to risk been garbage.
  8. The ones on trademe are these, how can you sell stuff that's bogus in nz?
  9. Been looking around the marketplace for new springs and shocks for my VY COMMODORE guessing the algorithm noticed. I'm not looking to slam my car but some flexibility would be nice if it were adjustable led me to finding below Maxpeedingrods coilover setup incredulously cheap! It will be road legal im not about TikTok views so needs to get thumbs up from a certifier down the track. But seriously is this a scam or manufactured from Taiwan grade cheese alloy. All the parts are infact commodore shaped and instructions do list what they don't fit indicating they have some feedback.
  10. Back off again till I find some Ford Ranger flares or something. They'll work im just not going to commit automotive butchery today till I think about it a bit more.
  11. My stupid wheel nuts I bought for drag day actually look alright because the wheels are so deep.
  12. Well I wanted 275's out back they fit around all the moving parts but poke out a lot I can get a bit of pull on guards to cover them. But might see if I can find narrower rear arms as there surprisingly is heaps of room on inside. Looks pretty hoony
  13. Yeah these are made by Ronal, ive always found a factory made set of rims so much more hardy with potholes and shit roads. And spokes that go to the edge although not as cool as a lip are stronger again.
  14. Been a while I very nearly got knocked on a WOF before drag day as my rear tyres are down a bit on tread some life left but not much. I bought some 275 tyres to see if they might fit as I want meats out the back. Fluked these BMW X5 m Spec rims in 19x9 front and 19x10 rears off market place today for basically scrap value. They should look mint! Can also chuck a 255 up front as well. Turbo stuff not on hold as such just doing my bit with small stuff like catch cans and power steering reservoir and radiator over flow relocations. Meanwhile its nice driving it.
  15. I'll keep it in mind for an option but I've just put a wastegate right where the inlet is there and tge plumbing where the coils are. Might work better for someone converting a hilux or something. Cool to see how yanks set them up though.
