  1. He's still about and recently started fabbing up a jig to fuck with Lada shenanigans.
  2. Cheers @AllTorque. Brennan, sick man. Looking forward to watching progress!
  3. Assume you've seen this? Sorry for wrong thread, on phone and finding is hard.
  4. Have you considered slitting the arch up in segments toward the body line and pulling the lower section out instead of bolt on flares? Don't get me wrong, I love bolt ons but box flares or "wide body" on this would look a lot smoother.
  5. Could bring the AE82 up but I probably should be working on other cars instead of driving around.
  6. It's not a big deal, it's not as though you left it up there for 48 seconds or anything.
  7. Props, dood. Seeing you inside the roof induced terrible flashbacks of the C110. I fluked the gutter trim fitment too. Noice wun.
  8. When you were putting on the new manifold, etc. Did you have pieces of cloth or tape covering ports, etc. or something similar that may have accidentally been left on?
  9. This is indeed that car. Although it wasn't overheating then.
  10. If it's just during break in, is it something that water wetter and some pricey coolant could remedy in the interim or is that a preposterous theory?
  11. Running slightly lean due to extra air and overheating?
  12. I think you're looking for the word "niche". I was confused about what this had to do with female children of your siblings.
  13. Easier to look where you're walking I would have thought?
  14. Good plan. Will probably end up with something better and cheaper doing it that way too.
  15. How'd you get on with your endeavors to buy that dream spec wagon?
  16. Why would the chassis be getting pounded with rocks inside the wheel arch? It might get dirty, sure. A little more scratches than if tucked away neatly in the engine bay or a door jam but unless someone was going out of their way to destroy it, considering it will be close to the pivot points for the suspension, I'm sure it will be absolutely fine.
  17. Those Honda ign modules are notorious for fucking out but it would be unlikely if it runs fine afterwards. When the one on my City fucked out it wouldn't go at all, thats not to say that they don't have varying levels of out fuckery however. Is it mechanical or electric fuel pump? Are you sure it's not just that you're a noob with the choke?
  18. Brave and or silly. Sometimes ignorance is bliss. Hahaha. Any reason (other than a ticket) you couldn't have driven it home?
  19. I'd love a slammed 2WD longbed but yeeeeah. Spendy over here (even if not over there). Looking forward to see what's wrong with it and how you sort it out.
  20. I'm not sure if it's justified or accurate but my concern if you removed the wall/bend/lip and replaced it with thicker flat on the same plane as the top face that you would run into potential torsional rigidity issues which would transfer stresses on the edge of where you weld the reinforcement plate, I would think narrowing it down but retaining an "edge" (I guess?) would be a good option combined perhaps with an additional strengthening plate across the base of the arm, retaining the 2mm plate size throughout. Maybe?
