The yard?

Trademe.  Fkn iPhone keeps changing words like a politician

There’s a few decent FC plates on the yard at the moment. 

That sux to see. 
maybe someone’s dropped the Torrington bearing at one point

OG’s get it, others don’t .

wheel choice can make or break any car. But easily changed

Back in the day there was an old gulls in Whangarei that made his own mufflers. 
 

he did the exhaust on my fxgt one night, started at 5.. the deal was that I bought him dinner and $250 cash. 
 

it sounded amazing when I drove away.

basically a folded up box, 2” in, 2-1/4” out, the was a 90 angle on its end on both ends to direct flow left and right, and a 50x50 box in the middle, he called them “race box mufflers “.  He did 2.5” from the floor pan to the rear muffler which was glass packed.

it blew the glass out after a year or so of 7200rpm abuse. 
 

my mate had the same set up on his mk5 cortina, shit that thing was quick with that exhaust and twin throat. 
 

the shop is no longer there, was opposite where pak n save is in town. 
 

id like a better muffler on the hunter, those stainless dummy’s don’t do squat

Better off filling those ports and going PP

Yup also common for the water seal groove to disappear 

Could be caused by a number of possibilities really, cracked housing, blown water seals, cracked plates. 
they usually still comp test fine too.

Atleast you know it’ll be good after a rebuild

The original bonnet is getting trimmed and finished off

How old are they? Could you bring them?

Fuck that off with a sharp stick. I would never inflict that kind of pain on any individual looking to aggressively sharn and relax, I make dumb decisions, but I’m not a cunt

AIDS, I’m out now. Kids cockblocking the fun again

I’ve had vitour formula tyres on the Hunter for 6 years, grip better than others I’ve used. Run a 195/50

STA parts stock them. 
I have a set of 215/50s on the hotwires that don’t fit the Hunter unfortunately, need 205s or more 195s

Yeah I chatted to the dude, he didn’t really say much about it, it’s a shame the wheel looks average as

The upper arms on this can have the camber adjusted by packers between the arm bush bar mount thing and the chassis. Most have a couple of packers in from factory to correct the camber/castor.

should be all g

Never really been into airbrushing ae

Do I recall something about proximity of things like fuel line, battery cable and brake line to the propshaft when routing under the car?
Or does it not matter where I run them as long as it's secure, not going to hit the ground and can't touch things that move or spin?

I had to fit a driveshaft hoop to the diff end on mine as the fuel line could’ve been taken out by a damaged driveshaft if the rear uj let go.

my fuel line had to run along the side of the tunnel

Nah it hasn’t gone to Smugz unfortunately. 
 

yeah the bolts look pretty slick IRL

So went to go to Waiau pa hop this morning, got 3km down the road and it started missing and spluttering.

then got progressively worse on the way back.

my guess is blocked injectors. 

That actually sounds fun
