with that investment is it not that far off just going to a dyno for a day. seems stupid to put 500 and a whooooole bunch of your time into making it all work to somethign thats half assed anyways. when a day on dyno be 1k or whatever and your done.

thanks. im just gunna give it a try.

I was looking at that, but it said its not to be in direct UV. ITM said no way. Have i been led astray? edit. placemakers also said yeh nah bro. Sika siad dont use it, we dont want you using it on something not deisnged for. * facepalm. wtf is this world coming too!? Im just after advise, would it work and there be no warrenty, and prob last 2 months, 6 months 1 yrs etc before needing a recoat. or it purely wont stick etc. too hard basket!

Waterproofing paint for a container roof. Have patched a few leaks on the container roof, and its looking pretty rough. I need to get through the next 8 months. What can i use to paint and seal off any chances of water ingress. looking at the likes of this: Elastomeric Paint - Subflex 5000 - House Paint New Zealand Because its a cheaper version of this: Liquid Rubber Waterproof Sealant for Roofing & Commercial Waterproofing (cohe.co.nz) I can buy New corrogated iron delivered for $835 in the right colour and have the timber to make a roof over its lid which would be more preferable than about 600+ for 20L of the paint. Is there a more accessible product or anyone have any advise for other ideas? We are hamilton based.

Saw a post on here just recently that hayholes mum does a good polishing service?

Yes inlet Manis are different and they're also more expensive. Fc plates are fine for what you are doing with them. Well capable of 5-800 hp reliably with just decent stagey. Unless u can get FD parts cheap - good luck with that lol Greens are about 2900 for a set of new plates then u can have them cnc ported for not alot more. If everything else u have is good then sweet, job done

For me its finding someone actually reasonable that understands old cars, having a little bit of cool with them. That understands the actual rules, doesnt claim everything needs cert. or doesnt expect it to be like a 10yr old car. For me, its not about it being unsafe, noone wants that, but just being reasonable to some mods and bit of oldschool.

I def agree that the old girls that are being used on weekends and such like should have different rules to follow than daily drivers.

She looks a million bucks now! good work. I need to do the same with my old girl.

Looks BADASS on the draglites! perfect wheel for this thing

Surely, you could persuade the side of the sump out a little to give bit more clearance on that pickup fitting. looks like it only needs a 3 -5mm knock with a block of wood when warmed. or are you concerned about it being too thin already and cracking around the flange corner? edite: probably wrong fred also.

Interested in what you would use! kohler?

Lols, nearly 20yrs ago. Thread dredge from the paaast! These are available all around the world now. Trying to find old 2nd hand ones are harder than buying new off ebay or trademe. most auto sparkies either have them in stock or can get overnight

or just run it on e85 and not worry so much

Thats wicked, seems time consuming asf. The black diamondy thing is doing my OCD in not being in the centre at all. What's the reason for that?

The other common reason for using alloy and copper is heat dissapation. Cheap AF heat exchanger pipe if you will. Braided ss line is good for flexi use. We also used these alot in trucks as the heat and pressure together kills everything the OEM fitted too quickly. Gunna be alot easier but probably not as cheap then using other materials, depending on your ability to do it yourself., which you seem more than capable.

Looks so good, was going to say awesome to see it kept so oldschool on those yoko tyres and minilites. LOL shame you had to get rid of them but def looks better with the tyres fitting better. Brings back so many memories for me. had a BUNCH of mk1's and 2's.

isnt that when it goes to 6 month warrants from 1 year

Classic is after 40yrs of age. It is not that it doesnt require rego, it is that it is non concurrent. Meaning you can just rego for x months at a time and you dont have to back pay in between for the months not licenced. Also you get 2 yrs before deregisters not 12months like normal.

Cheap isn't good, and good isn't cheap. You get what you pay for.

What is the go with a tipper flat deck on a sheep shagger hilux? Does this require cert? Thanks

James, surely there are more updates?

yeh, tried calling a few times now and txt and no response at all. you guys have probably dodged a bullet on that one then!

Heard from Evan last night, today I have messaged the seller and tried to call with no responses yet.

no worries. its a ford, so only limited options to help with that . LOL but let's see what he sends through and we can go from there.
