There is farm animals to see, tractors and diggers to sit on, paddocks to ride motorbikes in. If you have an old car bring it as well for a park up on the lawn. Mum wags can go on the other side. . will be small bike hooning on our track, see details Address is Good Grub n Grill aka Mark’s place. 176 Belk Rd, just past Tauriko. https://maps.app.goo.gl/85DpuW7oXFePUMiK8?g_st=ic Discuss for ideas & peer pressure.

TD27 would sort your misfire. /ling

I’ll do some more admin when I’m home but been talks of alternating meat locations between Tauranga and Whakatane.

That’d be ace. Do a bit of a drive somewhere perhaps.

Let’s do 24th? mod change title pls

Yeah not a bad idea thanks for the reminder. Any nights work best for anyone? I like Tuesdays. Burger Fuel Bethlehem comes to mind, decent carpark and a few other food options if not keen on BF.

How many pairs of sunglasses did you wear?

This is fake news

@Thphantummay know.

Drain tap and mess from old small one and then still found room for air horns. Good stuff

Finally found time to install mine today. Top quality bit of kit! Big upgrade over the small one I had before, couldn’t drain it easily so it’d overflow etc. /wheezy +T TD27 life. Mounted to the inner guard with rivnuts and some spacers so the wiring loom can run behind it still. Drain pops out under the guard with a tap. So handy! See the mess from the old one Just needs some hose clamps and oil rated hose. But running rad overflow hose and no clamps hasn’t failed yet lol. 10/10 top notch thank thank @Raizer

@Geophy& @Dogwatchdo

Nope lol. Factree base model wheels.

I’d lend you the rear wheels off my L250 Mira for drag runs. 12 inch skinny boys

Sunroofs suck. They always leak and create more rust issues down the track. My 2c.

couple of shitboxes ready to set up camp.

I also did turbo diesel stuff this weekend, plus T’ing a TD27 Nissan Datsun D21. First time playing with turbos, almost at the stage of @Raizer’s exhaust work ^ Acquired box of turbo bits from a Terrano, top end gasket kit and the desire to go up hills in not second gear. Unfortunately upon removing NA manifold (after fighting a downpipe stud for hours and cutting it off) found the two rear studs were actually bolts, m12 fine thread not the m10 coarse like the rest. One was actually missing and the second barely in there, hence the exhaust leak onto the firewall I hadn’t really noticed. however luckily @mo999was coming up to visit so brought along a really nice Wurth Timesert kit took a bit of effort to drill the broken studs out nicely as they’d been attacked before but got there and wound in some M10 inserts, they were a little long so just flappy disc’d them flush. The tap in the set cut the cast head really well. Used a nut as a locknut so the insertion tool wouldn’t bottom out and ruin the end of the insert as it was broken off unfortunately. Got an oil line made up after chipping out the wrong part of the oil filter housing to get oil feed for the turbo. Same shop was able to supply a bung for the fitting I took out needlessly however. Factory fitted drain bung used here too, had a fitting in stock for this. Sunday Mitre10 / Repco trip for bolts that work with the new inserts and longer ones needed for turbo manifold. turn key and it goes! Makes all the right noises even. Just need to get the correct silicone intake hose as the one I grabbed was too big and wind up the fuel pump a little. Then exhaust…
