Would any of you like a rechargeable LED work light? I've saved it from the skip at work, the battery pack has broken off but it still works

I'll be doing a job out in Darfield soon so I can bring into Christchurch

Pics, I know a retro mtb foamer who could be keen

I get that old car shit all the time, the old Mirage can't always sustain it's speed going up hills all the time. Especially in 100KPH zone.

But I love it when on the flat boosting past at 120 KPH, and seeing the look on their faces. Especially passing the truckers LOL. Where did he come from.

This reminds me of the time I drove my Suzuki Alto Chch-Dunedin and back for lols. I think the look on the truckies faces was 'what a fucking muppet' though...

^pretty much this. After spending two weeks cycling in Thailand, I have a lot of respect for their orderly chaos traffic system. Probably the most patient and courteous (especially to cyclists) drivers there are.

...and as for 10 people sitting in a ute tray at ~80kmh.........

Spotted this Shuttle in a short for Stop Loss

But is it a significant enough power increase? Factory figures show 108hp for sohc zc, 120hp for dohc. So a little over 10%?

Or is the power increase figure only with regards to needing a cert on the oe engine modified?

In which case one could argue its the stock engine, just has a dohc head bolted to it. Which you could have done with the old engine.

Be like a non type r integra having a type r engine fitted, both are stamped as b18c but one is more powerful

 

Will my vehicle require LVV certification if I increase the engine size?

Yes the LVV threshold table states that the replacement engine must be equal or lesser capacity than the OE engine so LVV certification is required.

Will I require LVV certification if I increase the power of my engine?

LVV certification will be required if the increase in power is more than 20%. Adding a supercharger or turbocharger automatically requires certification.

There's a black si that's starting parking opposite my house most days. Seeing it and these threads make me miss my old ef civic

Did I hear you say Toyota Dyna appreciation thread

Well reading this topic has just made me want to throw out my small collection of makita gear. Haters.

Saw this in the paper the other day, I think they had metal working stuff http://www.diyworkshop.co.nz

Anyone else think it's a convenient time for a sex scandal resignation type thing?

Just like bombs in 9/11 and tinfoil hats around wifi

Keen!

..for how much?

$6.5 for dark green reasonably good condition, $4.5 for the light green with custom floor and door vents

Took the day off work and spent it looking at aircooled relics (these two and Hillman are for sale)

I watched some Top Gear last night with Matt LeBlanc on it and what looked like his pommy grandad racing ww2 jeeps. I fell asleep, it felt like a bland soggy biscuit

Does anyone know about re-registering seat belt requirements? I know of a nice Vanden Plas Princess that has lapsed rego and only has two-point shoulder belts in the front, anyone had experience with getting og seatbelts through or is it a case of bringing them up to 3point belt standard?

I think most people's 1st project car was a heap of shit, they did a bunch of shit work on it, broke it, got a mate to fix it, broke it again and learnt to fix it. Well that's how it was for me.

There's been some stunning builds on a shoestring budget that take years to finish. It really depends on what you want as the finished product and the base you start from

I've seen the matt black one, looks good!

Little old lady at the super market

Had my eye on this for 2 years, one day the dr. will tell her she's not fit to drive anymore

/also interested in the vw, the woman has a itch for one

I finally broke the (female)wall of resistance to building my own teardrop! It only took several months after pining for one at Hanmer.

Thanks felixx

Spotted by the halswell New World, it can be yours for $7.5k (I lol'd)

Man I wish my starlet would do 200kmph, I'd be winning my class all the time!

(Which may not be accurate with mechanical speedo)

This has been put out to pasture to rot... Hopefully I can help get it into dry storage before winter is truly set in
