You tender for Nicks Sedan or Nah? Went for $200 (dereg)... Cheers,Chris

You just wanted to make it easier to slot the engine & box into it didnt you? Will be cool once done, Best front for the wagon conversion IMO What've you done with the lawn, it looks tidy (ala no car parts)... Keen to swapies that chevette front (the bumper everyone hates) for a bottle of tequila? Cheers,Chris

That gloss black or satin black ? Hard to tell due to the pics not being the best quality... Looking good though! Cheers,Chris

Piazza Diff is wider, and not all are LSD, infact most are open.... Manual Twincam and Turbo Models + Lotus versions I think we decided are the LSD's... Would personally put either a Hilux or T series Diff in it over a gemini or piazza one, for more strength.. You should have a talk to some Motor builders that build the Superstock & Stockcar Motors, some guys get some impressive results out of the ole' 3.8.... Cheers,Chris

Nascar D window steel wheels painted black with red trim line, as wide as possible, low profile tires, and lowerage! Leave standard colour Cheers,Chris

Took ages to find thread Looked a engine , me = hmm looks like a 3sge, reads on - oh yeap sure is! 1st gen 3sge's NA are good for around 150bhp Standard, they rev pretty damn hard, havent had any problems with the stock motor in Parents Celica Production saloon... IMO good choice for the Gemini Possibly got some FWD 2-3gen JASMA Extractors (cant remeber which) that they'd sell you 4th gen Motor is the best, better head, can be found in Caldina's cheaply... Cheers,Chris

Fuck that, Advan tires or no tires that paint job pwns all over your face and shoes

Forget the Matty B, Advan it already!

Slap on some Por and they'll never know the difference! Adds a huge amount of strength/ridigty , old commodore was done, twas super duper strong

Fuck, love the dedication to the weight reduction. I have to wonder why the exhaust 'tunnel' is so large though? (smaller = less weight) Surely the muffler & pipe isnt that large in Diameter? Cheers,Chris

Haha, waffles Never knew you were in chch, Used to see that blue ute at the end all the time, tis quite tidy, I like it! Cheers,Chris

Surprised to be honest that you havent cut the extra seams/joins for the inner rear guards, and along the inner supports (where the paneling would normally go) above them. Also the parcel tray Cheers,Chris

Going with the 4.4 (p76 stz) or 3.5 ? Cheers,Chris

Aws, I see judging by the rear guard it lights up the tires nicely! Cheers,Chris

RE: you're idle problem, check the AFM (air flow meter) , as alot of the EFI cars have a "start up" mode, and then once its running properly will switch to the afm (if that makes any sense), check all connections and give the AFM a good blow out with the air compressor (while its off the car) Cheers,Chris

No, not anymore (at least that I know of) Closest thing is "Dead Cars" , Chaneys Rd, dirt cheap , but its only open when the guy Can be bothered getting there, generally till 5pm most weekdays.. Failing that All cars on Maces rd are pretty good, Kiwi FTL! Cheers,Chris

Winchester has one (almost as big as Mcleans Island One), But thats generally around April from memory.. Cheers,Chris

Ya^ Tis awesome heaps of cheap shit/overpriced and you'll never use it. Friday is where the bargins are at, but only members of the VCC can view, and Sunday when everyone just wants stuff gone by the end of the day

Lowlancer = Bailes on everything/sometimes completes stuff You manage to fix that rear door yet?

Damn, took ages to find this thread/2mins Looks awesome dude, I've forgotten which shade of green you're going with, was it that XC Falcon Tropicana (??? think thats the name) - Hard Core 70's stz Cheers,Chris

Stage one, someone else can do stage 2, I CBF right now... (General tidy up + relocation of number plate & lower)

Fine, waffles that what I get for posting when Im falling alseep at keyboard, I like the pillar'd model , not the pillarless as much

Yus! Have to agree with you pie man, Hard top looks better than pillar-less Any plans for 'new' Drivetrain? Cheers,Chris

Fully get the hoodride look going on with this, tis uber cool, what engine does it have/plans on replacing it? Needs some stencil of a 60's logo on the side Cheers,Chris

Hey man, good to see she hasnt sucked all the life out of you Some progress is better than no progress.. Guards look even better now than when he was doing them You've kept that G161z & box? Oh remeber those chevettes I kept telling you about, well one of them he wanted $1000 for , and it had reg on hold, no wof, rusty and seized motor.. No Rts or anything special... Dreamer. And the other one I saw driving around town, still to go have a look at it at some stage, looks pretty good Cheers,Chris
