  1. I'd go with a hilux or toyota t50 diff (the diff thats used with a t50 g/box) , tried and tested, and theres been a few conversions with them.. Other option is, ring around some rally or autocross guys, they often run different diffs... Cheers,Chris
  2. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Members/Listin ... er=1798139 That guy there is your man! Pretty sure he does MK2 Mexico/RS Guards as well as a complete f/glass MKII Forest Flares Guard, but could be wrong on the last part.. Just ask him a question.. Cheers,Chris
  3. Get some Light Commercial Tyres or better yet some old 4wd ones, hard as a rock , and last for farking ages Cheers,Chris

    Strengthening..

    Seam welding adds heaps and heaps of strength, basically joins it all as one, less flex and movement. Which in turns make the car stiffer Cheers,Chris
  5. Twin rivers been and gone hasnt it boss??? Cheers,Chris
  6. Basically, if you have 2" Machined off the top of the shock, when you connect it back to the top hat you have move the centre/insert up 2", thus moving the bottom of the shock itself (not the strut) further away from the bottom . Gives you more bound Also WildplumDx, try your new shocks (assuming they are actually "new") they may just have enough pressure, to fix your problem.. (Old ones quite often are shagged, and dont do shit all Damping) Cheers,Chris
  7. Nah, Leave tires as is boe Looks awesome, much better on widened steelies than those Cheviots... Cheers,Chris

  12. Awesome, love 125's, Dad had one many years ago, told me this story once, was traveling down SH1 , and got to a passing lane (2 lanes either side), car pulled out to pass another car, and he went fangin past both cars, got about 100m past the end of the passing lane and it Promptly Blew Up! Yea, fully yellow with a set of the Ward mags... Cheers,Chris Whats the PCD on those / the Lada's anyway??
  13. Or a specialist plastic place, 'Universal Plastics' - theres one in Chch and Auckland, bear in mind it'll probably be rather expesive.. Got a long enough coil lead? Cheers,Chris
  14. Assholes, Bumper damaged as well or not?? Cheers,Chris
  15. Really nice tidy car, Must say I was rather surprised at how realitively rust free yours was, alot I've seen were full of rust Any plans for it, other than keeping the original Apperance?? Cheers,Chris

    Bike Carbs

    Still , wouldnt have thought tuning it would be anywhere near the cost of a Link Computer... + you still have to get one of those setups tuned... Cheers,Chris

    Bike Carbs

    Also that Inlet manifold shouldnt be too hard to make, one of them isnt even bolted together by the look of it, just using hose flexi-joints... Either way wouldnt take too long for a engineer to fabricate one up, could possibly use the original inlet abeit minus the plenium chamber..... Cheers,Chris

    Tints

    I think *think* , you can apply them in a similar way to Graphic/stickers - big ones not small ones. Use a wee hand spray bottle (gardening type) and adjust the spray to a mist, spray all over the surface area, that way, it enables to you move the tint around, and you can then apply at one end and slowly work your way to the other, and remove all the air bubbles.(without it sticking) The water simply drys up. Cheers,Chris
  22. Think I may know of where a MS55 Crown is, there is/was a guy about 10mins from me, his front yard and drive way is full of Big old Japanese 'tanks', and also some British Stuff - Truimphs.. Cheers,Chris
  23. Awesome stuff man, Did you end up getting those chrome surrounds for the headlights again?? Cheers,Chris
  24. Nah mate, you've got it all wrong, why WOULDN'T you want them on a road car haha Cheers,Chris
  25. Ok guys, Thought this could be a great idea for a Thread. Basically what makes a Bullit Proof Engine, and then we could make a list of such engines that meet those requirements. Perhaps like this: Main Bearing's amount should be 'Number Of Cylinder's + 1'.. Ie 4cyl Should have 5 Bearings. (a "Bullit proof" one anyway) Cheers,Chris
