RUNAMUCK

Dude thats gay. How much did the NI OS GCs contribute? We'll have to take up a collection for the difference. (SPlit 8 ways it'll be fuck all)

The man to speak to is CUL8er at firestone papnui.

Maybe we should pick up Yoddy in blenheim on the way through instead?

All Good. Hopefully we can do at least 60km/h most of the way. My camshaft makes me hate trying to drive slow.

We need to find a hot swedish hitch hiker to abduct, I mean convince to come to the nats. I can't beleive Rob is piking. EPIC FAIL!!!!

Fuck it, We can just crash at Hunted's pad. I'm sure the wheels will be sweet as. What time is the ferry again? And how far from the ferry is your Pad Andrew? Also, who's going to roll with Leppa and I in the datto? She's all "legal" now. Leppa is gonna bowl over to my pad about 7AM on thursday morning. I figure Bubbles and mrs bubbles will want to roll together? So they'll wanna roll with horse and Karl aye? Andy only has one seat, to that means either beardy or Rob is gonna be stuck with Leppa and I.

So we get to brave the welles traffic during rush hour? Awesome! Are we taking that fail tastic kapiti coast route? Last time I went that way a truck overturned and caught fire, and we almost missed the thing we'd gone up to palmy to see in the first place.

Three. Andy's ute, horse's esky, and the Datto.

Yeah sunday night. Dunno how far it is from yours to hemi-sans place of employment? Might not be worth the hassle, cos how do we transport 10 peeps to the cars? lol Might have to leave ralph outside to ward off any car theives.

I call dibbs on a non floor sleeping posi. Unless someone else offers up somewhere to crash, you're likley going to be stuck with like 9-10 people Me Bubbles Leppa Andy karl Horse rob Beardy Mrs bubbles and Ky. (assuming we doesn't mind staying the extra night) Thats going to be a bit of a squeeze. lol Perhaps some other GC is able to share the burdon?

I wasn't refering to that thread as such. Datsunboy is the guy with the nistune tool. He also does an easywire ca18 loom conversion. He has been planning to do the same conversion to an L18. Given the antiquated nature of the Z series engine management, it makes good sence to change over. PLus you get the added bonus of the CA18 base maps to begin with.(after all, the engines are the same displacement) PLus if you use CA18det injectors, they're heaps bigger than the Z18 ones too.

Sweet car dude. I really dig these cars. (Seem to be too few of them around nowdays) I dunno about using an SR computer, but I do know a guy who fitted full managemnt from a CA18det to a Z18et. The car went to invercargill, then the motor got sold to a guy who lives around the corner from me. They adapted the CAS to the dizzy, and then just used the CA18 TPS, AFM, coil packs ignitor loom and computer to run it. This gives the advantage of computer controlled timing. With the stock ecu and dizzy, he had been getting pinging issues once the boost got up over 12psi. I don't know if it ever wound up getting powertuned. (He lived in Dunners, and my other mate with the nostune tool is here in CHCH) One thing that did have to be done though was the CAS had to be dismantled, and the disc inside it needed to be inverted. This is because the dizzy turns in the opposite direction to the camshaft. It did run fine before it was iverted, it's just that it ran on two cylinders.

I might be talking smack, but is that carburator going to be big enough to feed a boosted rotor? I realise that it's quite a big hole, but they used to run two of them on a 4 litre jag.............. I'd hate to see you lean out a motor you just built.

On the back of a filthy bogan's ute.

Getting a shop to fix your box will entail a barbed wire dildo being rammed up your arse elbow deep when you get the bill.

one pair 28"x7.1". (tall but skinny)

I'm toying with buying a pair of nice skinny tyres from auckland somehwere. Anyone from up round there rocking to the nats who could bring em down for me? I can just justify buying them, but freight will rape it for me. Anyone?

Sounds like your front seal is fisted. When you pull it out, also check the neck of the converter for wear on the seal journal. A new front seal wont be that expensive. it'd cost a bit more to have the converter neck replaced.

What can happen when a trans gets too hot, is the seals go hard and then begin to leak. I had a val once with a fucked front seal. If I botted it or towed with it, or drove it up hills it would spit all it's oil out and lose drive. It spat out 5 ltrs of oil going up the Takaka hill. (And burned another 2 in the engine too) Find the leak, and pull off the pan. A pan full of metal/lining material = find a new trans.

I used a center punch to undo those bolts usually.

That wouldn't be an A12 datsun head by chance would it?

Grant? The forecast is poos, which is ghey.

That would get too sweaty. Plus it would lull you into a false sence of security. With no seatbelts in the back, you'll need to be held in your seats by the clutching of your butt cheeks in terror. (thats an actual quote from a freind of mine who once rode in the back seat of my old 1200 coupe with the exact A15 in my car now. except before it was supercharged. If you cunts is lucky, I'll fit a radio and a heater to the beast over easter.

Sweet Val bro. Where'd ya score that chrysler blue engine paint from? It's fucking good to see another mopar on the forum. Do a skid!

How Ironic. My 1200 needs thousands of hours/dollars of panel work too. It's raw and nasty. I'm gonna bring some earplugs for the hapless souls who roll with I.
