  1. Is there one? If so when and where?
  2. I went to they guys on Durham Street near the overbridge in Sydenham. They told what I needed to do and I went home and did it and it worked. Done this several times. Free assessment and treatment by Dr G (Me) cant fault the diagnosis but the Doc was ugly as sin.
  3. I weighed mine in at 1050KG and have a grand total of just 158 rear wheel horsepower at a lazy 4800rpm. Yea I tried the 3.08 gears and I thought it was quickish and then tried the 3:55 and immediately picked up the pace and less tyre spin but I have had to learn how to get this little baby off the mark with skinny rubber. I have a VL diff I was thinking of doing but now I have a spare LC/LJ I figure I'll just narrow it and slide some 235's under her instead for now. I think I will put the Koni shocks on and soften them to the max for Sindays drags (Southern Nationals), Its gonna be a great day with some fkin brilliant cars coming in for a real boys noise day, I will be watching the action and drooling! The coytina sounds like it had some big problems alright, an old Streetstock I had used to do that every now and then for absolutely no reason as it would suffer from oil surge and lay a thick haze of blue smoke in my 253 HT. That Fairlane put a smile on my dial as it gave me good memories, always liked em and always will, is it running the standard 302 donk?
  4. Love your old Torry it looked like it was a real nice show piece, it was interesting that your quickest on street tyres was 14.2 as my 14.3 is on G-Grid II street tyres only 195x60x14 wide. My goal after I settled on the injection motor was to get it to do a 13 second pass normally aspirated which I am close but may need a rebuild before I achieve it. My biggest problem to overcome is that the engine fails to rev past about 5200rpm unlike the carby version red motors I have owned that will rev willingly to 6750rpm when breathed. I have an Intercept Link and Tuning Module that I want to try out but to get it revving by the sound of it I will need to get a new ECU and start from scratch. Unless someone knows if I can feed my ECU with a false rev reading so it thinks it is doing 5000rpm but its actually doing 6000rpm.
  5. Well the engine bay is messy at present and more functional than pretty. I will eventually pull the motor down and freshen it and when I do that I will paint the engine bay. I have been lucky with buying the bits and this car is definetely a budget build and I am hoping I have a 13 second quarter miler for under $6000 spent on it. I have alot to do under the hood when this happens so it will be a summer job and probably coincide with a new WOF first so I have plenty of time. I am loving this site with heaps of chrome bumper cars
  6. I am a new member and drive this regularly and am slowly building up my pet into an everyday driver/club racer/ DYO drag car. I was a bit slack for a while but I have just splashed out on a few things for her. I do have a crossmember modded for a small block chev but I like the EFI six for now and I dont really need to strengthen or cert anything.
