shock shop in timaru just did my allignment with some extra negative camber (2.5 degress) handles really nice with heaps of turn in even at high speed
-
new or olds if its getting a new power plant i say stick with the same make just makes it look slightly more origanal like it should be there gives the car a better overall image
just my 2c worth
-
very nice
and yeah try and find out what engine and shit is going in there
-
that wouldnt make it die tho
-
what year is the skyline that is ion the first photo? thats mint as, the others are bloody nice too
-
that sites got some seriously mint cars not to mention rare(well to find around these parts anyway)
Escorta
what are the wheels on the white wagon? they do look very nice, what you got/putting them on?
-
yeah sounds like you may have something bent most likly your strut

scrap that just swapped comps and it works now
-
i dont know if it is just my comp, but the link didnt work?
-
that looks fuckin tuff, i like it lots got any pics of the front?
-
thats awesome
-
i consider these cars oldschool but you should also probably be arrested if you own one they are so criminal
-
yeah i dont think the age is what makes it oldschool, its the style and class that goes with the title, anything can be considered, like you cant not include an 84 DX Corrolla or and ae86 or even a mid 80s falcon, but also depends on the mods cause if its a 76 corolla ke30 but got big wheels a half arse lowering job and a bunch or stickers down the door i aint gunna call that oldschool either
if your having doubts about your own car then its probably not oldschool, you just know
-
any one seen the mk3 in the latest street machine, thats a tidy as mk3
-
theres some pretty cool cars on there not to meantion odd ones
-
ive seen that reeper photo from the fron before didnt relise its a wagon, its pretty mint, the stadnard one is cool just standard tho
-
hey im keen if i have a car back on the road, also timaru normally has street drags on about this time of year(which would probably make for a good meeting place), im going up there this weekend so ill find out and post some details
-
yeah definitly LSD and some big fat soft tyres with low pressure, and if all else fails tub it and get some fat arse hoosiers or micky Ts:D
-
that 620 thing is prety cool kinda just looks like they forgot to put the boot lid on a 2 door sedan
-
-
yeah im definitly going to get a set for my new engine
also the primera ones are propaply a common shape that are universal for a few models making them cheaper than the ones for an anglia
-
we unbolted the fuel tank then cut half the spare trye well out(nothing structual) then bolted two 8mm flat bars across the chassis rails then the tank mounts bolted to those so its hanging between the chassis rails pretty much right at the back, we then got a piece of sheet metal and bent it 90degrees and just used body sealer and rivits to hold it down which was good enough to be sealed from the passanger compartment. it left half the trye well, which made a great place to put the batery and a few tools(after all it is a ford )
dont know if this would work so well in a sedan but ive seen heaps of tanks in boots without any problems so i guess the boot is counted as sealed off from the passanger compartment
as for cost he was quoted around $2000 for a new lpg dedicated carb, but he got one out of the buy-sell for 300 second hand(but works mint), the tank and mixer cost 250, also out of the buy-sell, we installed the tank and the carb, the car already had lpg lines fitted, and it cost $370 to get the mixer installed and all the lines hooked up, and tuned up, and the LPG cert done
hope this helps
