Nice car, I had a UNO n/a a while back and it went so well for a 1300. Car was very plain and cheap inside but handled so well and the engine took everything I could give it, and it got a lot. Had so much fun in it. Had a tempest to but that was a bit boring.

You can borrow them if you want to look cool. Think they would be even better on you being the height and width differences, could be a real hipster

i minced a few lambretta clutch baskets on the TS1.

can't remember what the one in it now is but its lasting well.

does it get used - hard to mince them when stationary :crybaby: :crybaby:

Agree drop tanks look shit. makes sense if stock tank has had it. I prefer a clean boot though.

have to agree it is one sweet 2. Miss mine

Why the tank in the boot instead of under?

Yep, check battery and charging as you know there was an issue with the battery and things started from there.

Sweet car, im doing a 1980 1000 at the moment.

Stripping the whole lot and only have the subframes to go before panel and paint. I have rust in the same spot as you in the bottom outside of the foot well. I like the idea on the white steelies, im toying up with going with mini lites or sticking with the steels and the chrome/polished caps. Steels I wont need arches but minilites I will so need to make a decision I guess as I will go with group 2 and have them painted body colour

ill put countersink cap screws in the gearbox mount and it will go another 4mm or so but it is literary sitting on the ground.

Sure you want to do that?? At least you can get to them

And especially if you keep running out of paint ..... or getting interrupted

I've lanesplit past bike cops on the motorway heaps. aslong as you're doing it safe and withen the law then they wont/cant do shit

Haha, well of course if you are doing it safe and within the LAW they can't do anything

Is it the 172cc Villiers engine. Also what condition and the girder forks in i.e. bushes and friction discs?

what a bunch of smart asses on the audio

Put yourselves in the cops shoes, they have to deal with drunken asses on New Years, they have some fuckwit raping a 62-yr old lady that they all want to be out there catching, but have to deal young kids hooning around in cars pissing off the general public (not saying you were but a loud car does piss people off).

Then for the other guy you had $4000 in fines already and in a known boy racer area - did you think he was going to shake your hand and say "my what a model citizen you are".

I dont condone their behaviour but maybe they are just sick to death of little shits being little shits

You might want to ask a lawyer about section 22A(4)(a) of the Land Transport Act - this seems like an out to me if you didnt go over the speed limit and did nothing else wrong. http://www.legislation.govt.nz/act/public/1998/0110/latest/DLM434542.html

(4)In this section and in section 96(9), the operation of a motor vehicle in a particular manner is authorised by law if,—

• 
  (a)in the case of a race or an exhibition of speed or acceleration,—
  
  • 
    (i)the speed of the vehicle is within the applicable speed limit or speed limits; and
    
  • 
    (ii)the vehicle operator does not contravene any enactment other than this section that applies in relation to the operation of the vehicle; or

"Better get a lawyer son, better get a real good one"

Nothing will run on water besides a steam engine.

Not quite true

Thats a sweet Premiere alright. They are big land yachts. I like it when you park next to a landcruiser, cherokee etc and you can see the front of the car and rear half of trunk behind the suv's

Looking real good, getting through it when you arent interrupted....

Cool car, always loved them. I like the white wheels.

hahah, understand

what are the front forks off? you thought off going back to girder?

I thought it was an A30

Can't hurt having that extra volume to be honest..

Be careful in this regards. You want the engine to sit at its operating temperature which is controlled by the thermostat. With too much airflow through the radiator the water in the rad gets too cold and then when the thermostat opens up the engine cools to much which closes the thermostat and the process starts again - you will see the temp go from operating to cold to operating to cold etc etc

Im going through this currently where I will have to block off the lower portion of the rad to get temp to sit at operating temp.

When rego exemption is going to run out nzta send you a reminder, got two today.

Spotted in Orewa on my way to mcdonalds, so cool! factory bugeye, faded paint, spotties and racks! And driven by a man in his 60s.

The car in the background is worthy of some photos too
