fucking premo! do you have the adjuster as well? pm me your bank deetz and ill cash you up

Just hanging out, being cool.

Dunno if this has been covered before but check that the injectors aren't stuck. It's a common problem. Power them straight of 12v and make sure you can get then ticking open and closed. If they've been sitting for a while they will stick

Pistons out of the block. Bores should clean up with a hone but we'll see and the crank looks like it just needs a polish. New eagle rods and Ross pistons to go back in.

So, a month later and not much has happened. Took the heads to the reconditioners. Will sort out a new clutch then I can take the short block in for a reco as well.

Parts haulin....

Day two. No asplode

Drove it to work. It did not blow headgasket

cheers man! im fucking turbo stoked that i can actually do a couple hours work on anything without my back fucking out. gotta be real careful though.............

so yea. legal as. and now that is legal again it time to start doing all the illegal mods to it that i want to do. first up was installing an adjustable brake bias valve because i wasnt happy with how the brakes were before and im going to be putting a disk brake diff in it soon and ill need it for that. second was installing a smaller steering wheel. 2019-07-06_05-04-31 by sheepers, on Flickr then it was time to lower the front a bit because i wasn't happy with how it looked so the front springs got a mikita haircut. now its sitting much better. 2019-07-06_05-04-40 by sheepers, on Flickr 2019-07-06_05-04-49 by sheepers, on Flickr 2019-07-06_05-04-58 by sheepers, on Fl next will be painting the hood lining i think. its a fucked grey/mostly stained colour now so i think ill dye it black.

I also think this car is rad. I've never seen it irl, keen for that to happen one day

hello. most of the push lock fittings that i needed came with the kit but the other stuff i bought was SMC. all has been great so far. actually, the SMC push button spring return valve i bought to purge water out of the tank shit itself, but i suspect 150PSI with no back pressure on the exhaust side of the valve might have caused its demise. the air lines all came with the kit, the only bits i added was a nylon line from the compressor because the heat melted the stuff that came with the kit (i suspect its all PVC but not sure) and i ran the air lines that are exposed inside copper tube to protect them. everything is functioning fine so far.
