  1. Got this for $50

    Is now this. Is pretty sound, just needs a clean and scrub.

    Gonna throw some lol coloured tyres on it, and got some Italian flavoured handlebars for it. BMX sold for like $150 so that can fund it. Then I'm moving to Wellington in February if I get accepted to uni so gonna burn around on it.

  2. Hey mongrels

    Wanna get frame blasted and powdercoated. How clean does a surface need to be from grease etc for blasting? Eg there's a metric cockload of grease around the crank area and the frame is muddy as fuck from skids (not for kids). Assume mud aint no thang but can see grease being a cunt?

  3. How much harder (if at all) is this to modify compared to a Japanese sedan you reckon?

    Seems like a primera would be a sweet bet for a cheap, quick-ish FWD trackcar.

    Not that that's important reall, sweet that you've chosen this particular vehicle.

    I've always had a mild hidden boner for the same shape Galant fuel has (though would go N/A for costs), would be pretty easy to make one go okay given the history of the VR4 and parts available. Pop an AMG engine in with what you've done to this suspension and shit-wise, would be pretty fun I reckon Probably the same for the ST190s? If I wasn't studying next year, I'd be so ken to fail on a new project.

  4. Summer prep rebuild time

    Have stripped down, will get frame/forks blasted and powdercoated dark grey, and likely use black for the various details. Gonna grind off all the superfluous shit to get it smooth as a rapist's tongue.

    Unsure about wheel situation. Need new hub so may replace the wheels too as they're rather fucked by rust.

    Anyone got sweet source for sturmey archer hubs? 3 speed would be lush, assume the spoke number is the same as single?

    Would be down for some cool as fuck tyres, anyone got recommendations?

    Also, brooks set wanted. What's that site sparkle used for his rebuild?

    Am in process of cleaning up light/dyno stz, hope it all works ok. What voltage range do they work on so I can test the various bits?

    Thanks
