  1. 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.

  2. Alcohol wouldn't pass my lips KK! (Except on days that end in a y)

    I'm thinking of taking an extra coil outta the fronts. I might need to borrow some wheels with smaller tyres for the rear. The 205/60/13's get raped by the guards with a load on. Hopefully leppas meshies will clear. It does look pretty sweet since I fitted the blocks to the rear.

  3. Season Final Blowout

    Due to the postponement of our Kevin MacInroe meeting and the damage to our drag wars Sponsor Sylvester V8/Jap Race Supplies we have decided to give you racers a chance to have a blow out and get as many runs in before the weather closes in and the cars get put in the garage.

    Will be heads up grudge racing all day and possibly a DYO eliminator bracket depending on interest.

    Track will be prepped for those comp cars wishing to run.

    Burnouts will be on the pad after racing with them videoed again and put on the web.

    Gates open 8.30am

    Racing from 11am

    Prices:

    Gate $10per person under 12's free with paying adult

    Racing

    $20 per racer + NZDRA Affiliation Fee $25

    Pegasus Bay club members race free + NZDRA Affiliation costs

    Anyone racing is able to enter burnouts after. Those wishing to enter just the burnouts will need to pay $30

  4. It's actually quite easy to move the leaf springs inboard on these vals, which free's up lots of space for rubber. There was a really sweet blue VG from nelson with a 440 running at the nitro sunday meet at ruapuna which had had this mod.

    The poxy local content laws that the Aussies had have made life hard (read expensive) for people like us.

    Don't be too quick to go 9" though. I've heard of guys running 11's with the Type 78 diff running the four spider center and 28 spline axles. And people have run slower after going the the ford diff due to the increased driveline losses. But that said constant breakages suck the sweat off a dead dogs balls.

  5. The AP5 had a different heater to the 6/c/e/f/g's.

    The hard part would be tracking down the VC heater controls. IMO, the VCs had the better heater controls than the earlier cars.

    They have three knobs to match the cigi lighter. One controls the fan, one controls the heat/demist, and one operates the the heater valve. Pretty much no val has a working oriinal heater valve. Best bet is to fit a ball valve under the dash, and just have sumer and winter settings.
