What road are the OSers camped up at?

Going down Friday night after course, probably see you guys there

Kiwi metal polishers are gc's to deal with, I had some little stuff done and there work is really sharp, 10/10 would trade again

Sorry minor thread jack, Does anyone know where you would be able to find a copy of the whole book? Would be an awesome read.

Got any more info on that horn?

Does it cost anything to come?

So this Thursday? Do we have a time and location because im in.

Should we set a date and make this a happening thing?

Yep im keen

For sure, gets used off-road heaps though and it bellys out at the moment everywhere so i'll just see how nice I can make it look without lowering it.

Do you have any info on the guy who painted your pillars?

Boneage?

Yeah, I would like some old school rims but I am not in the position to buy any at the moment, 0 offset is pretty wishful, to be honest, any steel rim with a bit more offset would be nice. I'm not worried to much about rubbing as I want to stick with 13's, I already have good tyres in that size I just want to make it wider.

Right, I haven't done an update in a while mostly because nothing big has happened really, just been doing heaps of k's in it. I have been getting around to doing some little stuff in it, the most major being repairing the back of the back seats a couple of weeks ago, it was badly sun damaged. Overall progress photo with an AA and JAF badge scored for cheap from the Rotorua swap meet Big up's to Paul Newton Upholsterers in Rotorua, he taught me a heap of stuff about upholstering and I don't think it looks too bad for my first go. Also got my roofracks in the mail, come in handy so far for picking up sheet for school metalwork project. Interior wise, it did not come with any floor mats so I cut some up out of fake grass, do the job well but are starting to molt around the corners though. Chucked in a UHF I got for a trade for cleaning some trucks when I was 13, aerials a bit small but apparently that's how long it's supposed to be for its frequency. And yesterday I went for a drive and spotted this on the side of the road, complete with 2 cobys, score. If its yours or you genuinely have a use for it they are all yours, the bigger one is a bit rough but the small one is pretty tidy. Now that i'm up to date, I am due for some new rear tyres but im not really happy with the rims, I feel they let the car down so something has to change. I still have all the original trim rings and hubcaps although the trim rings are in pretty bad condition now as the chrome is coming off and the hubcaps are not much better. My thoughts are to paint them black and get some new chrome rings and polished bearing caps but I really want a bit more offset so I have my eyes peeled for some about 0 offset 4x100 steel wheels, not fussed about condition as long as they are not bent. Any ideas? It needs to be cheap though. Any ideas flick them up //oldschool.co.nz/index.php?/topic/43417-gnarlydudes-1985-ee80-toyota-corolla/?hl=ee80

A bit disappointing to see no one there tonight, oh well I guess that's the way it worked out, if someone else wants to organize a meet next month I am keen to come.

So Thursday 26th of June at 6:30 at Burgerfuel?

Will you guys be having a meet this month?

Ok another update Had a good day doing some little things to it, sprayed the grill and some stuff under the bonnet black and touched up all the chips and rust in some country creme (not kidding). After speaking to a heap of different people about my plug for the sub, it looks very similar to a molex plug but is slightly different dimensions and I decided just to pull the back off and see if I could just cut the wires and solder a plug on, I was welcomed with this. Now usually I will give anything a go but I wave the white flag. In the back of the plug there are what seems to be wire roads that send power straight to the board and I have no idea if it is possible to solder wires to these so it is a work in progress. BUT After a heap of looking I have got some roof racks to got on the C-rolla, a bargain at $12.00 so they will go on when a friend picks them up from the mount next weekend. Will stick some pics up when they go on.

Quick update My cousin brought his first ca the other day and he is a bit of music lover so I went to Auckland to help him stick a stereo in it. Long story short a my uncles friend knew someone who had some old audio gear and I ended up with a 8" sub. It looks like it could tidy up quite nice and a bit of bass is what i'm missing but I have no idea where to find a plug for it. Does anyone recognize this plug? Anyway, everyone loves pictures

PM sent

Those steel wheels sound awesome, do you have any pictures?

Thanks for the offer Fat Dan but no thanks.

What stud pattern are your turbo's Fat Dan?

Would LOVE a set of cheviot turbos, though the chances of finding a set in 4x100 would be slim to nothing. Finding any suitable rims in 4x100 seems to be slim to nothing because they are all made for new cars and look shit on an old car.
