  1. not sure but i wouldnt gamble on it. both series are dime a dozen tho, I'd look at a cheap primera box. let your fingers do the walking. I've got a n15 gti and it's sweet, even if you pay 600 for a box that's been checked over thats still fuck all man for a car
  2. gtis have LSD, but you should be able to fit any SR box (providing its the same cable or hydro clutch). assuming we're talking SR18DE may be able to pillage a primera one cheap
  3. angry kent every time. however if price is a factor and youre paying someone to do it it's gonna be dear, especially with twins. my old kent owed me around $7k roughly. about 1.5 of that was my fuckup for breaking a water pump bolt and having to get #1 resleeved.

  5. used the punjies at Landsford cres a couple of times, their prices are ok, especially if you do the prep/grinding. called Glen something...
  6. ok she's been sitting for eons. brakes are all blead with new fluid. clutch slave hasnt got the full motion so i'm taking it off this weekend to replace the top hose (reservoir to master) and blow out the metal line from master to slave, then re-bleed and look at starting her up. If anyone here is keen, Im willing to look at offers. May wof it if anyone's keen she can get moving. Also have 2 or so spare engines in bits, spare box, bullbars and various shit to go with.
  7. hey man, can't make it but have a mean time!
  8. not sure 100% on the Ruski alphabet but i think your second N is wrong... like it needs the second upright to look like a lower case b aka H + b ... makes no sense right? like this -> њ

    PAINT THREAD

    thanks dude, will try that caramel wheel. paint on car at the mo isnt too bad, mostly the clear which is tired and I want to respray in a similar colour anyways but dont have the setup to spray it properly with primer. Since it's a dark red I thought I'd hit it with the red primer? As for curing, can I tweak drying time/temperature (heaters) and moisture (duhumidi) to get a better result? a couple of good coats will do methinks

    PAINT THREAD

    about to start prep on the lada. Ive prepper a couple of cars before using wet hand sand and spray can primers and wasn't bad. Whats the general preference to sanding the paint off? Wet, dry or shall I just get the ol' orbital and deal to it? In terms of primer, might do cans again. The car is garaged with lots of room front and back, but only around 500 each side and I dont have the gear to properly spray it. EDIT: Also in terms of taking vinyl stickers off, Im going to take to it with a heat gun and scraper, so im guessing mid temp around 200mm off the car with the gun sounds about right?

    SR head

    chur, just looking at a nana hatch tonight with a 18 in it but the 16 specs just sound tasty so just had the mix idea to ponder on

    SR head

    read on wiki i believe that the SR18 and 20 blocks are the same with the 18 having a crank with a shorter stroke or something along them lines so potentially same crank pulley/chain. Also thinkking about valve setup/ecu side

    SR head
