  1. well that sucks a fat one. Next public holiday that falls on a friday maybe?
  2. Block has been bored, and quite excitably worked out the displacement on a calc to be over 2.1 litres now. /321 MF'n10
  3. That's my boy! Those the $150 ones?
  4. keep up with it David. Drive to swapmeet pls.
  5. So much effort hair, not so much beard. Well done though Simon. I chuckled.
  6. Hey man! Just pop along and say gidday. We'll be in the group of old cars in the middle. I'm the weird looking one.... well, one of the weird looking ones. I'll be wearing glasses and a beard.
  7. Off white and red interior is possibly the best colour combo on anything. Wow. Just wow! Was this a super score as far as purchase price goes? Like, did you feel like a criminal after you took it away?
  8. Lets do! Im on backup, but that shouldnt be an issue. Ken! I'll try get tracy to head down in his falcon.
  9. yeah keen on keeping a regular thing going, but super duper keen on this one! I'm on call this week/weekend, but don't let that stop everyone if this works for everyone else.
  10. We'll see what the meet up is like, maybe just "invite only" spec next month eh?
  11. lol, I hoped the message might be clearer this time when i called it "oldschool.co.nz monthly meet" and "this is a meet for old cars" or something to that affect. It's a hard choice whether to facebbook it or not, if we do, then we can potentially get some new members that are interested in old cars, but the down side is as you've all said. Will make another post on there
  12. holy lol at gal. This is so sweet. You know those cards that, like, when you turn them one way theyre one picture and when you hold it the other way it's another? You should do that on the van so that you can have to 4x huge murals. Wizards riding dragons that are burning ladies clothes that are made out of snakes that are shooting poison that is naked ladies that are unicorns who are being ridden by gal etc
  13. lol. Keen for mappable ignition if budget allows. /Dave why didn't you say you were making dcoe throttles on the compewter ages ago. That could've changed it /still could probably sell my new 45s for profit
  14. also what i did for feb, which I shouldve also done for march, was make a message pointing out that it was an old car meet. That seemed to help. My fault for not including that last time etc
  15. Burgerfuel Palmy Meet at; The lower undercover park at the plaza at 7:00pm We'll check out some cars, and walk straight over the road for some takeaways about 7:30-8 - Just a note, feel free to invite other cars/people along, but you will be responsible for them! Please leave no rubbish and no skids/rowdy driving in the carpark - We've been given permission from the Plaza to use this, and we don't want to loose it. We have a rain free car park, and the barrier arms go up shortly after we arrive, meaning no parking fees. Grab a camera and we'll seeya there
  16. Absolutely keen for that too, but keeping this one as a regular feature as I'm in ongoing discussions with burgerfuel/it's good to keep a constant for a regular monthly meet
  17. Ehh, I don't wanna be that guy that says itll make a million horsepower, and then doesn't/hopes high etc. Lets just say it will have well over double the power it has now.
  18. whats 'never stay down' mean? Must be a 4wd club. Rad time once again. Good turnouts are good.
  19. Hey man, dude that I brought all my bits of in cali/also my engine builder, said that with the specs I'm running with this motor then 40s would be too small/choke it a bit, apparently!
  20. OK. So there was no way that the engine was going to be ready for nats, so I held off a couple months whilst the dollar went everywhere. Clicked the button/called the dude in cali a week before nats and got the bits ordered. They all turned up today, and look to be all there, and in the appropriate amount of pieces that is correct. DORT BITS! Pictured is; 2x 45mm webers headers arp head bolts total seal gapless rings TRP 294 cam with appropriate valve springs rocker arm lockers (to replace springs that let go at approx 6800ish?) steel head gasket lightened factory flywheel oil pump + timing chain bearings, gasket set etc oh and these little beauties, which should pop me up at a nice compression ratio talking about it; //oldschool.co.nz/index.php?/topic/29495-sparkles-bmw-of-supermega-happy-hell-yes/
  21. K24 pls Keen to see what its like under all the muck. Lets get stuck in m8. Also,
