  1. Hmmmmmmmm, some good ideas and some bad.

    It mentions there about radar detectors too. Old man mentioned it earlier, they want to completely ban them, and add some hefty fines and 75 demerits I think it was, for people caught using them.

  2. you do need a cert but if the car was offered with the turbo motor they probibaly wont even notice. Same if the engines look similar e.g. 4k to 5k 3k to 4k etc.

    Just cause they dont notice dont mean it shouldnt have one though.

    Plus then youll fall into the silly part of the regs like if you fit a 3k into a starlet that originally had a 2k youll need a cert and a driveshaft loop :rolleyes:

    Not that anyone will ever notice. K series is a k series is a k series lol

  3. Fully used to own one of these lol.

    Cost me nothing - fixed a truneon arm that had collapsed on it and then sold it for 500 bucks no wof and dereg.

    Not a bad car though.

    Good to see they still around though. The spot lights in the grille are the same ones on my zephyr :) Bought them from a wrecker ages ago and pulled them out the car myself. $5 the pair. :lol:

  4. Car show coming up in couple weeks so putting in some effort to tidy car up a bit.

    Old 2 blade fan

    New 4 blade fan, freshly painted. These are impossible to get in NZ as they were an accessory for much hotter countries, same with the guards around the sump which my Z doesn't, but the green one does.

    Sunvisor after freshly applied 20 odd coats of gloss white paint. This visor was a real basket case when I got it - massive rust holes and looking really worse for wear. Cut the rust out and welded in new strips, some filler and then lots of primer and sanding.

    And fitted.

    Next on the agenda for sprucing up will be side cover, rocker cover and intake oil bath. Sandblaster at work FTW.

  5. Get a bar that locks ya trans in gear, with a padlock, and similar cross bar for clutch and brake - that way you can't move the car at all. Cause cause get out of gear, and cant depress clutch without depressing brakes. - Car aint going onto a flat deck then

  6. I have to fly to Dunedin soon and drive a rental car back to Auckland. There is very little time for me to collect item I need to collect and get to Picton for ferry in the time I have available between fly in time and ferry leave time - so I'd like to be going a smidgeon quicker than 100.

    So I beg of the peeps out there, has anybody got a radar detector (preferably a good one, like a V1 or XR STI) that I could borrow from the 16th of November to the 19 November. I will collect and return to you at your convenience, with some beer or $$$ for your trouble.

    Please, *puppy dog look*

    Thanks

    P.S. - That said, if anyone wants small clean stuff couriered from anywhere between Dunners & Aucks, gimme a yell and I'll see what I can do. Prefer mainstream towns - not keen on detouring off into the countryside.

  7. *really needs to keep up and read more threads*

    Where the fuck is this? Keen.

    Edit - should make everyone brings lotsa sparklers. Make a sparkler bomb (and no Koko they dont explode and cause havoc and maim and kill lol).

    Toyspeed did one a few years back with like 2000 sparklers. Public beach in Mission bay stz :lol:
