  1. I'll just leave this here
  2. My mums car was hit my a older grey/faded blue (witness suspects old starlet) car on saturday around 2-3pm on the corner heading west just past tawini rd..They didn't stop and check just gapped it, so if anyone has seen a older car with a smashed up front and blue stripes I'd appreciate a heads up. Witness and mum didn't get license plates so we havent got much to go off
  3. I need to pop over and check it out. Old school drags 2015, how many liters of dex3 can we use to go down the quarter mile in 18 seconds
  4. has to be a pushrod v8 or a dirty diesel
  5. So i'll come full of dirt, dust and leaves like my truck then haha
  6. x2 do it! or just use the american plates, They won't be able to see them through the tire smoke anyway
  7. The lesson of the day is original paperwork. The ORIGINAL bill of sale is all thats holding me back from legal motoring. It should be in the mail in the next few days. Its been a learning curve but we are nearly there
  8. Got it back! Will try get pictures tomorrow when I do the mounts
  9. Just wax/clear coat it and roll as is!
  10. Do hotwires & house paint count?. It will be dome properly I just want to drive it is all
  11. Its already bad so I can't make it worse puhuhu
  12. The temptation to arc some panels in, prime and re bog it is very high. How does all the crome trim come off? I 've got a few pieces off but thats only becasue there was rust holding it in
  13. I should be getting it back this week and will slam the body mounts in, take it for a re check and hopefully be legal
  14. I loaded this up with 3 people and all their stuff for a weekend and it didn't scrape too much. Only mishap was the exhaust coming off its hanger after some spirited gravel road driving.. I finally got around to putting some sound deadening/heat resistant stuff on the firewall and the stuff actually works. for the first time since owning the car I no longer get hot feet/legs when going for long drives. I chucked some in the boot and it has quietened the road noise a bit too. Got a pic to show the bay with the wiretuck
  15. I fixed the not idling/ running like a bag of shit problem by tightening the intake manifold bolts. I can actually shift into first/reverse now that I have adjusted the linkages. I cracked out the sand blaster and the drivers floor is pretty holey. Also does anyone have a large sized compressor I can borrow? can have a 15/16A plug on it as our garage has them. My favourite part is the rain instantly sterting to rust the metal
  16. It did sweet sidewall burnouts before the sidewalls though
  17. Stock rods on the right and the new ones on the left. Lucky i'm a hoarder and have a few spare gearboxes/rear diffs
  18. Here are some pics of my super rangi turbo seutp I threw on my other shuttle
  19. I've had this (and many other hondas) for 7 years and been playing with it for most of that. Its the intrac model so has (had) abs and rear lsd. The orignal motor and clutch was toast so I chucked a sohc vtec in it. i've put 280mm mini rotors on the front with prelude calipers and its lowered on neuspeed race springs and koni shocks. I've taken the a/c and powersteering out. Currently it has a non vtec ssohc in it as the other motor is getting built at the moment. I put a midwing and facelift bumper on it Its Slightly tidier now but I have no pictures
  20. Gas mig or gasless? If gas I'd be keen as when the time comes thanks
  21. bigger shed or shorter ute. Just take the tray off
  22. oh sweet! I doubt its fitted correctly as its fallen off again and is in the boot. Yes it probably is, there are a few stickers floating around. I'll be bust this week getting ready for easter weekend so I'll crack on with it next weeek
