im sure something like this wont pass (just in case anyone wants to know, its what you get with a full track hilux diff into a 86 )

i had a similar problem to what you described, took the cort to my mechanic, who did one wheel bearing hten took it for a drive, didnt fix the problem. swaped diffs fixed it. the best thing is, he never invoiced me for the work! hahaha

Fitting of or modification to: LVV certification is not required provided that: the seat is either an OE seat from another vehicle, or similar to the OE seat and of a known and reputable aftermarket brand, and - the seat is fitted to unmodified OE seat anchorages, and - the anchorage or operation of seatbelts is not affected, and - the relationship between seat, seat occupant, and location of the seatbelt anchorages is not affected, and - the vehicle is not fitted with airbags in that seating position. (Note that LVV certification is not required where the only modification is the removal of seats and/or seatbelt anchorages. However, a class change and a new load rating may be required in some cases.) I suggest you check the legal issues first

fair enough, What sort of KMS has it done?

I bet 5$ its your rings not your valve seals

2L pinto is approx 98-101 hp.....

from what ive heard, hilux ratios are quite hard to get hold of, as are the diffs themselves nowdays

Just a couple of things ive found : My car (pinto cort...) gets better economy (less cost as well) out of 96 than 91. Theres a product called um, moreys upper head cyl. lubricant, seems to do the job too.

Just be wary that setting up the pinto valve train can lead to bad times if you dont know what your doing

haynes manual lists max power @ 5400rpm, and max rev @ 6200, see this site, it may be usefull http://www.pumaracing.co.uk/pinto.htm

just dont be a mofo and buy a set of 4 lock nuts, and put them all on one wheel, leaving the other 3 with normal nuts

ah okay then, 511cube V8's for everyone!!!! unforunatly mate, it doesnt always work this way, he may want to stay 1600 for a reason, maybe to preserve the the car in its 'factory' state, maybe he wants to enter in racing classes for <1600 cars, he may infact want to do alot of things hence why he asked about modding his engine not upsizing it...

your engine is sad in what way? no power? no torque? slow reving? its best to have a good read up on your engine to start with and find what other people have done, port and polish without doing the cam isnt going to give you much, and doing the head without sorting the fueling and exausting isnt gonna help either

i always thought the 2L gbox only fitted the 2L pinto, and the same for the 1600, but yea might pay to check. Sierras bits are cheep as chips nowdays, there are so many of the things around

Ever wondered what wheel PCD fits what car? this URL may be useful http://www.bgworldwheels.co.nz/fitment.html

For Questions Regarding WOF's or CERT's these following links may be usefull to you : Basicaly this means that your car must comply with everything listed on this page to get a WOF, if this page says you need a LVV certification, try this link for more information: http://www.lvvta.org.nz/newindex3.html Hope this helps, Si admins any chance of stickying this thread or making a usefull links thread?

as far as im aware, any mods done on the car before 1992 do not have to be certified, but still have to be up to standard, not tosure how accurate that info is, maybe someone could do a little digging and see what they can find

Cort 2L: Comp ratio: 9.2 : 1 Max engine speed : 6300rpm Max power 74kw @ 5200rpm Max torque : 113 lbf @ 4000rpm

mid 80's F1 : 1500cc engines, twin turbo, qualifying trim they used to weld the wastegates and run appox 4bar, 1300hp+ to the rears

apparently its ment to contain microscopic pieces of teflon

apart from the fact motorup actualy rapes the fuck out of your engine.......

and the cost of the build so far is ................. si

mate of mine has one in a corona with a 3t engine works well

Im guessing your after a electrical pump, ive heard a rb30 (commie,nissan) pump is pretty good
