  1. The red comes off when the get used a bit just from the heat.
  2. you probably dont care, but i did 100 in 2nd the other day in the mr2, almost at redline.
  3. make sure extractors dont pull into the head. put fat washers on otherwise you will blow heaps of exh. gaskets
  4. flare that shit. glass some flares over your guards them angle grind the orginal gaurds off.
  5. and they arent the cheapest to attach. so i hear.
  6. were you low on gas when this happened?
  7. dude, escorta can hook you up. and the wires you have to get out of the clips are a bitch until you master them. use a pin and flick them up. pm escorta, he has primo wiring steps..
  8. i thought you might have sorted it.
  9. alarm place? are you getting an alarm? Dragging this off topic, i was in the school carpark today and my kindof mate opened up my boot with his old dx corolla key. how much does new locks cost?
  10. just by looking at his location. maybe he does need to learn engrish.
  11. you can just get filter sock things that you just cable tie on. thats what ive got. and there is no room for any solid airfilter
  12. well mine started graunching not so long ago. those big mofo bolts would come loose all the time. i was about to loctite them up when the old mans mechanic said it will just come loose again because some case housing was loose or something. siera motors dont fit as the pinion thing is a few mls higher and would just wizzzz away and not touch the gear. if u get a new starter motor, test it with a load on it, like jam a peice of wood on it. $195 for a new one or there abouts, thats what i did. starts cooley.
  13. for all of us that will probably never see your car, can you post up some front back and side pics? if its too much to ask, maybe a before and after?
  14. blaster as in msd blaster?
  15. any one wanna buy low kings for escort. new, havnt been used. 30mm drop. pm me
  16. do those octane boosters you buy from repco even do anything
  17. Dont buy that crappy additive shit. $2 per squirt can kiss my ass! Ive just got a small squezy bottle of 2 stroke oil in my trunk, just for a bit of uppercylinder lube. All ya need.
  18. so if you had an intercooler on the draw through, it would be sending fuel right through it? what about a plumback BOV, what do they do exactly with out spraying fuel everywhere

    Start up

    dont use choke either. just one pump of gas and start it, when the starter motor noise goes higer pitch, then give a few more squirts of gas. then vroommm vrom vrom vrom vrom vrom............lumpyness
  21. sounds exactly right jerm its exactly like a normal setup on a modern car, but there is a carb in the way of the normal throttle body, havnt seen it done with a side draught but there is normally one butty plenum chamber on top of the carb
  22. i thought i said that my car deserves it bags!
