    4k engine rebuild help

    how about you sell the 4k and buy a 5k and rebuild that. 4k's have bugger all power. you could also put in a 4age. its simple and you get decent power.
  2. you're really getting the hang of this photo chopping thing arent you lowlancer
  3. gotta leave an impression with the girls somehow aye
  4. i didnt think i needed to say that... i thought that everyone knew that... its just using common sense
  5. it does, lost of it but i have spare ones so that'll be fine. also, its not srtuctural so it doesnt matter for a WOF
  6. no we dont, well i do but even with it stripped its still slow :'( i didnt strip it for the speed but purely because i got bored one day the back is going to be for my sounds anyway so dont want a back seat
  7. nice, our interiors will look similar then
  8. all i have is dash, 2 seats, door cards and windows. everything else is gone... got bored one afternoon
  9. mine isnt the best example of a rust free car but its all surface apart from that bit by the rain gutter by the boot lid... getting fixed monday though

    Strut Brace Wntd

    i think that his "Twin 44 IDF Webers" are to blame for that. by putting the pipe over them he probably wouldnt be able to close the bonnet...?
  11. why rust kill? metal will not rust without water so as long as it all coverd in paint you'll be fine... that is if the rust is fully dried of course. also, wouldnt it be easier to just use a wee bit of bog to fill up the bits that he wire brushed out? then sand, primer and paint
  12. but the roll cage etc will acount for some extra kg's so we can keep our windows and door cards
  13. hahahahaha that sucks. get wider wheels so no mud gets in :P :P
  14. not always! lower a 88 325i like i had and it will be worse! cant beat the germans mate. honestly, their suspension is fucking awesome! even the tyre shops i went to told me
  15. yeah, i know. you could get a "spoon" honda engine and rev way up to 9000 or 110000 even or just spend $3500 ish (probly more) and get a 4AGE
  16. get a 8" hilux instead bro
  17. no no no! you dont want to do that with a standard 4k!!!! they redline at 5200 i dont go over 5500 myself (if i even go there), it sounds like its about to die after 5 ish if you want more/cheapish power? get a 5k. loads more power and bolts straight in

    electrics Q:

    has anyone noticed that no1 goes to a mechanic with oldschool cars
  19. Ned

    Headlights...

    just drive your car into a piant oven
  20. go to the mechanic, pay him $15 (free if you are nice to him) and get him to test it for a blown head gasket
  21. the thing is, i can still drive it "fine" as in, it goes in all the gears etc. its just a bit harder...
  22. syncros? (how do you spell that?)
  23. hello guys. what's wrong with my gear box? i noticed 2 days ago that when i push the clutch in that something rattles and it sounds like its coming from the g/box / clutch area. Starting last night, it wont let me get into gears and i have to literally PULL ity out of gears even when the clutch is pushed in... i also have to slam it into gears now and again... all the gears work and the clutch seems to work to... WHATS WRONG?

    Flame thrower Exhausts

    it shouldnt cut ALL sparks as then the engine wouldnt run and no pressure in the engine would axtually push the fuel/air mixture through the engine and then exhaust...

    Flame thrower Exhausts

    get a spark plug and mount it about 5cm from the back of mufler tip. run a spark plug lead to a second coil (mounted under the car as leads are fucking expansive!) then hook the coil up to the positive, a switch between the coil and the earth and away you go. if you want mean flames, unplug one plug from the engine so a little bit more fuel runs through you exhaust. remember, if your car is tuned nicely, it should/will not have flames!!!
