  1. chur for the heads up boe. yea think b1600 lsds fit aye. guy said he would ship cos i sorted the shit out so thats sorted. cheers fullas.
  2. cheers pete. anyone else able to lend a hand? this is what im looking at http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing ... d=93335592 bottle beam etc up for it.
  3. holden 202 valve springs to get past that vicious 7k valve bounce. not that gives more power, but if you were to really work the 4k might be an option.
  4. Yo is anyone is auckland able to help me out and pick up a diff from 'Hibiscus Coast' and ship it down, prob mainfreight, to wellys???? will hook you up with some piss or something. PM chur.
  5. fuck. i like it. 2 tone and chromies. prefer them with the 2wd guards and wellside too. tailgate looks shit with that number plate there. depending on weather you are gonna keep it or not (guess you wont) i say get it all running properly and legal. no doubt you will max your profits if you kept it looking as is. you want the biggest target market right = bags and chromes. if you were gonna go down a different angle with this as richy said, i say start with a better base. think late 70s/early 80s hilux/b1600/whatever.
  6. looks like the whole guard to me bowl. note dullness = cutting compound.
  7. Saw this cut a lap in town last night when i was chopping the piss and cutting shapes on the D-floor. pretty sure i yelled out seedy or oxyboot. maybe seedy. gangsta as oldschooler rolls past dumped cos of cunts inside "SEEDYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!" And people think im weird.
  8. fuck. looks like i missed a good meet. although couldnt be bothered fucking around with nzpc wanks. yay for body kit.
  9. chalky b stz broooooooooooo. white one looks mac less front spoiler. really 'spoils' it. lofl.
  10. nah. its not uniform. might turn up. might.
  11. mint ride mate, would be choice to see yours and eliots side by side.
  12. A little bang and the camera unfucked itself. Free volvo 4pots off durty. Chair bowl. Couple pics taken when I was on the street getting sparkles dirty elevens. Showing off the current theme of this tyte whip. That is all for now.
  13. type 9 is just the 4 speed with an extra lower ratio gear im sure anyways. imo go 5, should be no hassle about the paint is your running carpet and if you arnt then provided it isnt hardout layered pearl or whatever then it shouldnt be hard to fade in anyways,
  14. basically its just that the std rads sit out maybe 2" cos of a body shroud. do as gaz says and cut off the top piece and mount it in that 2". easy as to see if you look in the bay.
  15. nah dont need them. looks 20x better without imo.
  16. Finally got pics up on the pc. Here's my s5 rx7 g-box. Here's boxes of shit. *insert 'wish my wife was this dirty comment'* Was gonna get a couple shots of my free calipers I got off durty (chur boe) and pics of the s4 rotors to chuck on trade miz but the camera fucked out again. Housings are at engineers getting peripheral ported. And I spent a shit ton on new parts. New seals/springs etc, rx8 rotors and stat gears, high flow oil pump, and money to get it balanced etc. Still gotta buy more though. Also slight changes of plans. -paint will be left as is, chalky blue. -after seeing mikunis wagon I've decided to hunt a set of steels as are on it and get them widened a couple inch with similar tyres -wanting to hunt down a oldschool mesh visor for it -some other stuff. Oh, and I gotta still chuck on my os sticker. Also, it may make it to nats but will half completed. Either as is but boned with brakes and rims done, or motor in running but standard as otherwise. 4rofls.
  17. Ok. So lets see what I've done on it since my last post. -sorted some wiring -removed duel ign system for lpg (I know, wtf) -got a new speedo for it -fixed rust -new temp sender -fixed up inside bits and pieces -rear bumper straightened out -new front brake hoses -paint -prob some more shit too. Badarse pics. No bonnet stz. These seem to be the only pics I got of when a couple good mates and I spent a day welding up holes. This segment is the drivers side rear window. Welded a piece in and then another strip for the window rubber. Filler was used on the inside where the metal was pitted. Painted my rimz. Rolled down mates driveway one day and his old man goes "Fuck. Look at that. You could get $500 more if you sold it cos of them" Door getting prepped. Couple dents in the old girl but no rust. Getting ready for paint. Blue is primer filler. Got the side painted to tidy it up Pictures as of today. Unfortunately I've decided to sell the mini. As I see it it's not fair to leave it sitting outside to rust, esp with winter approaching, and being a poor uni student I can use the reg/wof/insurance money on chalky b/beer. As much as I would love to I don't have the income nor the space to support two projects at once but will one day no doubt own another mini which I can chop up bone out and roll on a 1360 etc.
  18. fucking. tee-you-double-eff. boe, love that ride height.
  19. gutted. least it didnt jam when you behind new merc etc.
  20. haha lucky. but it is all to do with your attitute and the cops attitude. if your not a cunt, then they arnt. every cop ive been stopped has never given me any greif. i just jump out and have a chat. but then again ive never been driving one thats not ment to be on the road ... and been stopped hah.
