  1. Yeah I know why it started running away lol. Bit gutted im now going to be pulling the motor down for a cheeky ring and head over haul. Its a Toyota L. So the 2.2. No throttle plate etc. Had noticed it had been getting a little smokey recently and been making an odd chuffing noise. Im more gutted as I was actually about to chuck it up on here for sale. Ah well.
  2. Diesel run away. ..... So I had my diesel in my hilux start running away from me this evening while going down a decent hill. I wasn't able to pull off the road till I got to the bottom. However at this point the engine stopped running and I assumed it had demo'd its self. The trail of smoke Dow the Road was epic. A cop also happened to be behind me at the time lol but thankfully he understood when I said the motor is now dead. So once he felt I was very surprised to find it still had some oil in it and it still ran once I primed the fuel system again. First thing I had done while going down the hill was turn the key off to cut the fuel. Was one hell of an experience. Anyway question. Can anyone think why it would manage to stop once on flat land? Its a none turbo. Unfortunately was all caused by blow by I would say.
  3. are the wheels 14's or 15's???? So jealous either way haha!
  4. To be honest It might not even be a Problem. When I got cert done, my speedo read about 20km out at 100. However I guess it all comes down to the person at the time.
  5. Re brake rotor. It's most likely going to be fine, but they certainly could have done a better job lol. But by the looks they have only done a mild skim. As for the flare nuts. They will still be metric thread but for some reason most flare nuts seem to have 11mm heads instead of 10. I get this all the time at work. Brakes look good. I assume they have been ultra sonic cleaned. Keep up the good work.
  6. todays efforts were average I should learn to camera Way to much of that sun thing going on. ended up just mincing around seaview as it was close to lock up and had shit to do
  7. This an ali pipe? Been looking at something similar, but would totally be mounting from under. Looking good. Keep up the Lords work.
  8. That spot has a gate these days. Which is a shame because it's rad.
  9. These were taken many years ago in the tunnel at the bottom of Ngauranga gorge Shits changed there abit but havn't been there a while. can only assume all the graffiti is long gone.
  10. Joe and I took these Under The TSB arena car park. Pretty cool lite place but is $4 for half an hour or so haha.
  11. Hey dudes and lady dudes. I need to take some pictures of my Hilux now it's all looking rad and clean and ready to sell. Anyone have any suggestions for cool places to take pics? Im a huge fan of brick building's, abandoned shit, industrial radness, and graffiti. Not so much keen on scenic shiz but will take suggestions! Anywhere in the greater Wellington region would be super. And........ go!
  12. Hey just wondering if my chev would pass a warrant? Vtnz said yes but im not sure. Here's a pic for reference
  13. Time to get the drills out and that motor apart.
  14. @vivaspeed Whats your thoughts on this lol
  15. My sedan sure did. But I fail to see why it would use a different wire to achieve? Wonder if its something to do with child lock? WAT CAR IS IT OFF MAN!!!! ?????? ELEVENS
  16. The underlying point is the certifier is declaring that the vehicle is legal at point of cert. So taking care of basic wof shit is in your best interest. But anyway Clint will some what confirm more. I actually can't remember if I went for a wof pre cert on my crown sedan or not. But the wheel alignment thing I can also understand as camber needs to meet correct standards.
  17. Shit yes this is looking super nice. Well done, really appreciate the attention to the retro side of what you used to see. So good.
