Nah I retired the little guy, this was on one of glens CT’s. It would have struggled to make it due to how deep most of the fords were unless it was carried all the time. For the CT we drained airbox, carb, cylinder and oil, refilled oil away it went -

Anyone dealt with laser welders? Seems interesting This video they are welding 12mm plate which isnt ideal for it IMO, but seems like it would be legit for thin stuff. More talking about a working environment vs car work

Awesome, cheers

Sweet, is it a major to remove/move seats around? Needs a recert I guess?

Hey @cletus is it easier to buy a van with many seats and remove some, or buy a van without seats and add some? I want a big van with just one row of seats just behind the driver seats, just wondering if it makes sense to buy one particular type as a starting point

What’s the objection to powder coating? It’s really robust and looks great IMO

Hey guys, Im looking for a decent auto sparky to wire up a 300zx twin turbo with a link G4. Its for a client of my partner who has some terminal illness so wants it done ASAP paying standard rates etc. Anyone know of someone? Its got some mods to it, but nothing too wild by the looks, and all components appear to be there to wire up

How do you tell an SR version of the seller doesn’t know?
-
Any particular model you would recommend? I see some have headlights and others don’t, was that just an option when you bought it, but otherwise the same?

yeah not going to lie, I'm also looking at getting a 2 stroke dirt bike onto the road, KDX is a pretty sweet option and looks reasonably streetable compared to most dirt bikes

Been mucking around on my street magic. Fitted a new Yasuni R exhaust which needed some mods as the flange wasnt right, a new Daytona variator and a Maikuni 21mm carb (aliexpress pwk clone, quality is reasonable, but worth pulling apart to tighten all bolts before using). It had a PWK21 carb on it previously, but it had corroded a bunch and had some weird mods to it by the previous owner. Scooter goes well now after tuning jets and needle. Still a bit more tuning to do, I think I might shim my variator a bit to get more travel at high rpm, at the expense of a little bottom end, but I think with the latest tuning its acceptable I also realised it has an aftermarket first stage final transmission kit on it, which is quite surprising as top speed isn't as high as I would like it, at about 70kph before variator runs out of movement, then 85kph at max rpm. See how my final tuning goes, and assuming I dont blow up my crank I might consider some different gearing Once I refit knobblies and rear rack she'll be ready for another escapade- 474 replies
