  1. Pretty sure ive seen wheels like this have pop up on tardme when looking for wheels for my falcon (5 x 114.3). Keep an eye out and you will find some. Spacers and stuff are shit. Dont do it.
  2. ^ I noticed all the sigma manuals too, WTF was with that!!
  3. Was pretty cold. Permafrost till about 11am then the ground was mush everywhere.
  4. Beautiful day this is going to be good!!/cold
  5. I see all my pics are dead above. Damn it. This turned up the other night:
  6. ATF is fine to use as a Hydraulic. In fact its better.Its what we use for high heat and loaded hydraulic systems. Can you use the power steering pump im not sure, but tipping a flat deck with wood on it wouldn't be to hard for a hydro system surely?
  7. ^if i find some ill sell them to you for $250 hows that?
  8. Might try get there also. never been, didn't even know there was one...
  9. Seats will work but the rest wont fit. Its mainly front suspension, steering that changes over. Engines and gearboxes. Not much else.

    Gear oil

    You will find most GL5 mineral oils have alot of ep additive in them to get them up to the GL5 spec. semi and full synthetic GL5s will have far less EP additives to bring them up to spec, with the better technology inherently more resistant to high loads. Less EP additive = Less aggressive on your brass/bronze etc.
  11. Wow, open question. Really depends on what you need.

    Gear oil

    Yeah thats right. ATF has dye in it as it would normally be clear. Im guessing its so if it leaks on the road or somthing. i think its more of a pseudo law that in reality means nothing. Another thing that you can try is a bike engine oil as it had a wet clutch additive to prevent 'slipping". Half the issues with older goxes now days is the oils are getting to good and too slippery. Best place to start is with an oil thats at the spec that the box is made for. I dont mean a "75w90 or 80w90, i mean the spec. GL4, GL5 etc. It makes a massive difference. is the same deal with engines but thats a whole other can of worms.

    Gear oil

    You want a multi purpose tractor hydraulic/trans oil. Has wet brake additives that will get our syncros gripping like a school boy. Dont tell them its for your car gearbox as its illegal as its clear. Other option is some atf or if you want a "gear oil" get a GL4 75w85. How much is that redline stuff? Everyone goes on about how great it is and spec wise i cant understand why. I want to try it though.
  14. This was actually an awesome event. Will definitely be going next year. That datto wagon was on the next level in the drifting too. Crazy!
  15. ^Keen as on one of these GPS trackers.
  16. ^Pretty sure i have a GH sigma, LA LB lancer and colt ones. Also have an LA factory part numbers book if your interested (very very rare). I need to find them tho...
  17. Try searching on here. There is a fair bit on here from over the years regrding the Mitsis
  18. Ive got a feeling that the springs from E30 BMWs work also. Does in the turbo lancers etc.
  19. Get rid of that single point injection. Why oh why did FORD do that on the EAs.
  20. Damn it, i forgot to measure sorry. Also Archers are just round the corner from me if you need things picked up or anything. They do good work tho and would be worth the extra $$$
  21. Yup will measure tonight if i remember.
  22. Just read this. this sounds like they use an LSD additive package to achieve the "shockproofing" I still dont really understand why a gearbox oil needs to be EP or "shockproof".
