roger roger, would the first pump not create cavitation issues to the second pump, i have read a bit about this with the use of facet pumps before high pressure pumps

dredging this thread from the dead as swapmeaters have convinced me to PI my trumpet (and remove 2.5 coils). Im trying to do it on a jewish budget without being shit and too hori, you lads talking about 2 pumps in series, you reckon this is legit? im no fluid engineer, rookie apparently is but i wanna make sure this is gunna work before i buy parts etc.

What sort of fuel pressure regulator could i use on the second pump to measure 110psi, and on the first to record 55 psi. I put some shiz on the uk fourm and they all say use a bosh pump from a bosch K-jet equipped car (audi / VW / bmw etc) any idea where i could score one of these (probably not).

damn you  im so so jelly, who did you get it from in wanganui?

offroading lsd's actually do fuck all unless they are really tightly shimmed. Auto lockers are alright but gay on the road and quite unpredictable. Airlockers are where its at. The chinese ones are all g

nice, my father in law had one in the same red until 2 months ago. He originally got it to use as a rally car after his last one was written off but it was just too nice, 40 thou original miles. he repainted it and put some sweet turbos on it. Sat in his shed for years until he sold it this year, man i wish i had the money at the time to buy it, so pine.

anyone after a pair of 33/10.5/15 silverstone extreme tyres, still have 17mm tread in the centre (20mm when brand new), have a few nicks etc on the lugs. Have been on my samurai but have sold the truck without the tyres so time for them to go. Looking around 900 for them ( $1800 new)

Nice work. My fav form of Motorsport by far. If you ever need advice my father in law is a big dog been rallying escorts for 20 years kinda fulla. Sold up last year and built a swift but has a bucket loads of experience. Especially in the doing it cheap department, his other rally car at the mo is actually an Austin allegro which he built to make

A point that rally can be cheap and fun and still competitive. You guys will love it, can't wait for day breaker

i would buy the fuck out of any BDA merch, someone do this shit

I vote for a sweet swapmeat /swapmate Hawaiian oldschool Steeze shirt

I'm a ding local now so will get down there with bells on. Sure I won't have any trouble dragging cam to the track either

i know ive been looking at it crying, would need to go back to a 3lt v6 for class two but would be such a cheap build. The front bilstiens are just about worth that by themselfs. Times like this I wish i was single and or didnt have a joint bank account

heres mine with some way skuxx fulla at my sisters wedding. Needs more low, just has compressed springs in it here which are mint for original spec but i have another set of struts/springs that are gettin cut for some sacked out goodness

id be keen for a handshake and brew

ooooo i pine for that chainsaw, would look nice hanging on the wall next to my 60's mCculloch 200

nah cant swap diffs, power plant etc. Has to be from that model vehicle but can be from later model editions of the same vehicle. Has to run original axles etc. You cant run aftermarket suspension parts (radius arms etc) but can strengthen the original with added material. So yea would be running original gear which Cherokees tend to bend and break

Cheers for all the advice glen, think i need to have beers with someone in C2 and get more inside deets. Im def loving the gen 2 pajeros like 216, who owns that now? is it the same guy that brought it at the scrappys and repainted it etc and repowered with the 3500. They seem like the best budget option as parts are at every butcher shop, much the same weight and horsepower as the bighorn. The Isuzu is cool but there aint many petrol ones around so spares would be a bit more scarce. Although that yellow one on trademe is pretty cheap considering it comes with a trailer, especially if ya got it for 7k. I love the haybros hilux, shes pretty modified tho and those 5VZ-FE are a bit scarce now too, and standard they are actually down on power compared to pajero 3500. The 5VZ is from a later model hilux so are they allowed to run later model engines etc?

Also when you say the fast pajeros have had heaps spent on developing engines how can they as the rules are so restrictive. Father in law has a couple of rally cars and also builds and develops rally cars and had a look over the rules with me, hed be keen to help when time comes for me to get into it. There is big potential for power out of the 3500 mitsi v6 as the run lame as cams and tune but you cant touch ports, cams, crank or flywheel. He said all he would be able to do whilst sticking to the rules is a polish, balance, extractors and exhaust, lighter stainless slotted valves, advance the timing and or run a link or something with a better tune but not much to gain with basic as internals. Also can coilovers be run in class 2 if the truck is coils factory, do they just have to mount onto original points or something. Man im keen to get into this.

a family friend of mine (Mike Carrick) races a very quick 2.5 PI at local hillclimbs and manfield etc. You have probably seen it, it is very quick running about 2.7 litre, EFI, supra box, BMW diff etc. He built by 2 litre for me. Could potentially be keen on a cashy but dont know as he is quite a busy man

yes please i want inspiration. Pajeros have the strongest off the shelf IFS thats why im leaning that way. Class 2 just seems so cheap, pineing this build big time - http://www.offroadexpress.co.nz/Forums/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=26468

would want petrol as you can do many modifications in class 2 so would want as many as you can get. The v6 isuzu is used often, there is a sweet bighorn for sale at the mo on the tard - http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/specialist-cars/competition-cars/auction-722915399.htm

yea well the classic is identical to the disco so it would make idealness. Next offroad toy is gunna be something i can race, in class 2 no doubt. no idea what yet, thinking a 3500 swb pajero or a 2 door classic rangie, that would be so sick for taupo 1000

nooo cam do sweet shit dont bother with springs. This is my good mates 2A, has a 202 and hilux axles. At this stage it had a 3 link front with 12" fox airshocks, pretty easy to do and it flexed like a boss, those airshocks are cheap too. i loved this thing, had fiddle brakes in the rear, went many places. Has been stripped and sold off now , had patrol axles and a 1UZ sitting in it before it got stripped. I wanna buy a shit V8 disco one day, shorten it and put a series body on it, much awesomeness 

yup 

well.... suzuki flex

yea i used balance beads on my 33" silverstone extremes. They are mint, any more than like 10kmph no wobble whatsoever.

very nice, im enjoying this thread. If the mystery timber smells quite sweet, almost like some sort of candy then it will be douglas, there is a fair bit around your region so it wouldnt be surprising.

cam we need to go do skids
