  1. Did the same in my old 3Y hilux, water on the dizzy meant a lot of unburnt fuel was collecting in in the muffler, then bang like a shot gun got a wideband to see what’s going on?
  2. I remember seeing one of these at Taupo raceway some years back. guy have a Subaru WRX motor in it, it passing gtr’s on the outside
  3. Yeah definitely, normally I’d agree if it was a car I wanted to be tidy and nice. but this thing I want to be as rough and mongrel as it can be, and I kinda enjoyed the old manual wind back sunroof in what it came out of. And it’s free and period correct
  4. Hey so I’ve got an old retro fit aftermarket sunroof I’ve acquired. one of of those DIY types they sold at super cheap in the early 90’s vehicle in question is going though cert at some point. where I want to put it there is a U channel bit that travels though the middle of where the cut out would be. can I cut it? If I needed to add steel would it need engineers report or something? just gauging if it’s gonna be a pain in the ass or not cheeeers
  5. +1 for carina progress this is an awesome project that’s has done well and bloody well done!
  6. Nice track toy! mark Schroeder did a good write up on the RCA’s using measurements of his car regarding height and what point their needed. dunno if you know him and his 2zz aw but I can try find a link for you if ya like?
  7. Was told it’s latest speeduino but I think you could be right
  8. Hey mate. All honesty I have no idea what it did, nor was I really interested
  9. Give the boys at advanced seals acall about the Orings. ive had issues with aliexpress rails being to big. And the repco SCA kits just go larger in diameter not thickness
  10. Had some free time over lock down and burnt so rods in my safety boots Good to get some practice in cause I’m average at best. Got a couple runs where the slagged popped up in one piece so that was cool been needing a coffee table for a while and had the idea of making one that can slide under the sofa so can be a side table too. fits and works well. Just a tad tall because it needs to clear sofa seat hight. Had the idea of doing a stained pine lam top same as the dinning table so it ties in together but I kinda want to get some glass cut for the top. Help keep the open look. We’ll see pretty strong too, can put most of my +100kg weight before is starts to bend. Just bloody heavy is all
  11. Cheers I’ll definitely be getting a router soon
  12. Yeah legit haha anything to get more in the car fund
  13. I’m needing to do a wardrobe soon. Where did you get the draws and sliders from?
  14. Managed to actually find time to do some more on the house! was on the hunt for a large mirror for the bathroom try make it feel a bit bigger then it is. also, so miss’ can do her makeup while im shaving my head haha turns out trying to find something was a mish, even free standing to turn sideways was a mission or they wanted stupid money. went to an art framing place, old boy said he’d do me a solid and with frame and mirror in size I wanted for 800 cash flagging that, found a place called cosmo glass, small family business. picked up a 1600x700 mirror for $200 spent a bit doing demisting elements behind it and used some chunky architrave to frame it. Currently staining it like I did the dinning table above, but darker with less grain. probably cheaper ways to do it, but demisted and that size probably around $400 it’s cost me, so I’m happy with that plus I got to use my new Milwaukee gasless finishing gun highly recommended
  15. New addition to the family’s been keeping me busy but I’ve still been getting bits and pieces past management decided to keep the old carb fuel tank and just run external twin pumps probably a bit over kill but I can switch it off the ecu with TPS/rpm axis, and if one dies and can still get home Man you can dump some money into fuel fittings! Just gonna use barb fittings on returns and surge feed to try some money. Anyone has suggestions on rated fuel hose that doesn’t brake the bank please share!
