double post..

Trailer is at a brake place now, will see what happens.

I touched this car once.

Interstate '76!

'Just Rust' in Tawa, could ask them for a quote. I've used them for a job I couldn't be bothered doing myself, price was decent as far as auto body stuff goes.

Thanks, will look into offsets.

Hi Cletus, Is there any issue with wheel arch extensions that are 60mm wider each side (that's rear, front is less)? And on that note, having a overall wheel track width that is 120mm wider than standard? This would require cutting and welding the existing guards and fitting wheels with enough offset and width to suit. I've been through 3 certs with different cars but none have a track width change like this would be. Thanks

Looks interesting/Hondasucketc. First thing I would suggest is upgrading that radiator, you can get 42 or 50mm thick ones in that size. And some ducting to get air going through it rather than around it. I doubt any air will be going through it at all like that. Those are super light weight too.

The 'Big' in Bigport is the inlet ports, its not possible to make a smallport as big as a bigport. The bigport was just far too big, that's why Toyota made the TVIS butterflies to block off half of the port to increase velocity in the lower revs and opens up at 4200rpm (from memory). But they dropped it all in favour of the smallport. The Smallport is the better head for NA. Even turbo wise they work well compared to bigport, I've had both turbo'd and the smallport spooled far better. There is a guy on Toyspeed who made the smallport's ports even smaller and got good results. It was in a off road racer from memory.

Out of interest have you had any issues with filling the cam covers with oil and pushing out the breathers with constant high revs on the track? I've had years of this, trying many things to try stop it, have spoken to a lot of people with 16v 4age's have the exact same problem. Ranging from a guy with a smallport lotus 7, Andre at STM, myself with 4agze ae86 and both fwd bigport and smallport turbo 4agze etc etc. I don't see any extra breathers on yours, do you have this issue at all?

That is cheap. To be honest my mate was very hard on his which would have limited their life, they were good tyres. Did they balance well? I've got some 35" Creepy Crawlers which are hilariously hard to balance

Mate had these in 33" they worked well in Wellington clay and rock. Surprisingly quiet on the road for MT's compared to all that I've had. They do seem to wear pretty quick though.

Close!

No worries, just dropped dad off so here's a sneak peak: I saw the cover come off this one and holy carp....

Hey guys, Just thought I'd put this up here, my dads car club the 'Constructors Car Club' have set up a show of about 80 cars. It'll be all sorts of interesting home built kit cars and replica's: Lotus 7's, countach's, race cars, probably a Saker or two etc etc. Really top quality stuff. About 80 cars and 7L trike!? This weekend at the Porirua Kennel Club. $5 entry and heaps to see.

Think 'Bean Auto Services' by Tony Tyres in LH have a late night. 04 569 9016

Good place to live, gf works for the police (not a cop lol) and looked up records in Kelson. No car thefts as far back as she could look (couple of years). Only domestic violence etc = meh

Lol wtf really? I thought you lived in fielding.. I live in Kelson too, just look for the dick in a roughish white ae92 trueno

Cam were you in lower hutt this morning? I saw a 205gti with oldschool.co.nz sticker on the motorway at 8am ish maybe a bit before...depends how late for work I was lol.

Shane Mendoza at Mendoza Mechanical should be able to do it if you have some decent diagrams. He did my brothers kp starlet with ca18et. Not sure on price though. They are in Upper Hutt, wouldn't hurt to ask if he's keen or not. They are usually really busy but he's a good guy.

I have a 4agze short block. Needs rings, was down a bit on compression but still ran mint. 8.0:1 compression etc. In wellington. Wanting about $450. Don't mind dropping off at Mainfreight etc. PM me.

Car is not mobile at the mo, getting new engine etc first. Will have to get hold of him when its done. cheers stop being a pussy. put a 4k in it! Lol you're a dick pies Almost had the engine ready to go back in but then found a couple of stripped bolt holes for the gbox

Would this dude be able to make a panel to cover where a sun roof used to be? Either weld in (if possible to make it look ok) or glue on top, have seen this done before and looks good. I live in Kelson so would be pretty handy.

I've used Castrol VMX for ages.
