Starter motor deciding to try and weld itself to the gearbox tunnel. Easy fix

Here was attempt in the proper wet before having to slow for a crash/fire

Had a go at a hill climb on the weekend in the myth. Only got a couple runs in before the weather turned to proper shit.
Still fun though. Almost managed to get a pheasant through the windscreen as well lol. Maybe santa will get me wet tyres

still a few more seconds to go

Finally looked at some data 
 

Taupo track 2
1:23.404 - escortwags - 12APP Mazda 616 -  Sad NT01 nittos
Snapped panhard rod off diff after I just started getting used to track (first time at Taupo)

I just used some random alloy hard line from Ullrich, cut with pipe cutters and used pushed locks everywhere works a treat for a few years now

Edit: see shitty old pic attached I found on my phone, wasn't that hard to do at all, just need patience and maths

Yo

After anyone that can make molds off a set of Katayama flares and spoiler I've got my hands on. Looking for cheap which doesn't usually apply for good but ya never know.
Auckland area preferably and cash job would be nice I'm not rich

Shit picture but this is the stuff in question..

not sure who you are using for a cert, but ours got done 1 1/2 years ago with 7 switch control and flew through no worries?
I actually use the individual bag control overtime I drive to get the car actually level 

Please get either this kit:

 

So delish! one day i will have you

woooooowwwwwwwwwwwww

Have been using a Wayco super low for over 8 years of garage life abuse and no issues so far. It is a heavy prick though.
But never dropped on me or done anything retarded. Parts are still easily available if you lose anything

YUP, piecing a brand new motor together, have fixed all the bugs since last time + improved many many things.
Should be good to go back out in the new year

First time for myself & the car driving on the track, no rear brakes, lots of bugs many seconds to be taken off, ran bearing on last race, many excuses

yuh STA does a 185/70/14 for $75 incl. Getting a set before xmas so can report back if needed.
My last china set lasted fine, whitewall never faded (tread tech) they just fall to bits when doing skids

as above, the supreme struggle is real, so much want but near impossible to do

I has such a car

This a good thing to do to the new rangers? void warranty's or whats the dealo there?

This thing is delicious!
 

On another note anyone got a mint 12A e-shaft??

Oh yes Ive used those guys for my bonnet/various panels. Not to sure how much care will be taken with such a delicate part is all

For the price of buying these products, as you will more likely need more than one, it may not be much difference just to take them and get acid dipped by the pro's  

 

Also -  time is money

Recommend me somewhere to take them please, its seeming like the easy way out a haha 

I used a product called Bioclean to do mine, it's some sort of eucalyptus based stuff. Downfall is it also took off the teflon coating

Teflon coating?
