  1. doesnt it have a pod filter sticking upwards under the scoop?
  2. So the thrust bearing finally gave out after 6months of me meaning to replace it. done the bogan clutchless shifts for about 10kms home. What was left car on axle stands while dropping box down brothers old car which i have inherited, need to replace engine though and drop it down low again. daily stz/escort i have is too shit. bought and engine for it, amg 4g63 ~170hp. should go good. Painted the daily and got some new rims: The amg 4g63 never happend, ended up getting an engine which developed a big end knock pretty much instantly so had to rebuild that with a replacement crank/conrod and bearings/rings etc.
  3. its it cause you have taken your foot off the accelerater, so the car is slowing down?
  4. whats this? off what car/where can i get one etc?
  5. corrupt

    radiators

    i havent noticed a change in running temp since ive switched to an electric fan, it switches on exactly what temp i want it to and would keeps the engine cool enuf in heavy traffic etc. there is always the upside of electric fans aswell, less engine noise, less drag on engine etc.
  6. yeh and if your crash they go boom beucase of the pressurised fuel/air that runs through them. with my pulley ratio it should be pumping 7psi
  7. would be interesting, i should just bite the bullet and slap all my shit on and see how she runs
  8. bov's arent made for being held open for long periods of time, wastegates are. the wastegate is acting as a bypass valve when the throttle is closed as in my plans i will have the charger on all the time, which means if theres no where for the charger to blow air, its gonna get extremely hot. so the wastegate with the correct pound spring will solve this. dont argue the idea with me, as ive read a fair bit on aussie sites and, all the aussie guys do it with their commodores. edit: intercooler is becuase my engine isnt made for boost so wanna keep the tempreture down as much as possible and rootes? type superchargers generate a fair amount of heat. also beucase theres space for it where a striaght pipe would go otherwise. / you should be asking toyota why they run them standard on 4agzes
  9. this is how i plan to have mine setup, quick explaination: -blow through - modified 32/36 weber -always on setup (have to think it through) - wastegate with how ever much pound spring boost i wanna run in it, probably 5psi, which will be postitioned between charger and carb -wastegate will open when at idle/no throttle as nowhere for the boost to go and will just vent to air/or maybe back before the charger -and some other shit which is all in my head, cbf explaining its what ive planned to do, but havent done it yet, as have to think about it a bit more/research
  10. call yours what ever you like. mines the pinnacle of style
  11. yep thats standard size boe
  12. whats this gearstick you guys are talking about? i should have looked etc
  13. this thing came screaming past me up a hill when i was ringing out 3rd, i was so pwned. would have been mean if you had the rims on at nats.

  15. need yours hard boe. fully gonna copy that shit. fully ok boe, might have to copy the widened rims shit on the tina aswell, kinda thinking about widening the rostyles i have.
  16. So thought that i would update this a little bit, as she stands now: ! standard 2L engine ! 2" exhaust with a good flowing muffler and matty b dump ! electric radiator fan ! 13x6 tridents with 205/60s ! superlow kings at front with adjustable shocks, and slightly shortend kings in rear ! aussie mk4 bonnet ! recaros/momo wheel/gear knob ! usual sound setup ! tints ! "classic white" paint Fuck this project threads messy, will tidy it up at some point and fix all the broken images.
  17. i cant go check now, but im sure its beside the outlet on the tank, well on the same thing anyway, from memory it looks like its a large circle bung thing which is in the front of the tank meh
  18. But then you are stuck with a Mk5 Gotina the best oldschool car out, which 99% of the world are yet to discover the greatness of them
  19. just buy a mk5 cortina, mine came standard with return stz
