Well it lives once again after lying dormant for many months with a blown head gasket, so I washed off the dust and took a few pics. And jeepers I don't remember it feeling quite as fast before either

So who is passing through/in taupo tomorrow? Keen for something, otherwise go sit around at the racetrack :/

yeh? where abouts?

your trans oil might be EP, it is sometimes. but sometimes its just engine oil, depends on the trans.

diff oil? its usually an EP oil of some description. e.g. Castrol EPX 80W-90

One of the benefits of being a dry place _b What cars are common in senegal? toyotas?

but arent they IRS? be easier to go with some kind of transaxle setup

thats no drama, just run multi coil no dizzy setup.

Whats it for? I'm guessing not the 124 with this off set diff nugget idea. suzuki jeep or something like that?

err hp per psi? no that doesnt really work........ What mmm boost was saying does give you a "rough idea" if you have the compressor map and can work out the flow rate of the engine you can use the "10hp per pound per minute of air" rule of thumb

Yeah I had to replace mine a while back, think I got it from euroitalian on the shore, but it shouldn't be too hard to find. Unos probably use the same part

depends on what diameter is right for your car, but I'd probably go 15", cheaper tyres. The other option is if you can fit reasonably large tyres you might be able to get used full slicks ex. NZV8 tourer or similar, these are 240 wide 625 dia. 17"

if theyre anything like the 124 theyre copied from if you lower them more than about 25mm it screws the steering geometry as the control arms will be pointing upwards instead of down/paralell. Thats said, if the sedan and wagon suspension is similar to the 124 coupe (does the wagon have leafs at the rear?) you can lower them alot if you dont care about the handling going to hell, I've seen one lowered 150mm from stock But I beleive there was a bit more than just changing springs, things like shortened panhard rods cutting bumpstops and maybe moving some of the mounting points for the rear suspension.

wow thats some very serious kit, hope it all runs in well, just remember those things need suck in a couple of small children every now and again

an entire hilux rear axle is something like 80-90kg, landcruiser fyi is 120kg

Cheers Terry, so that grale is no good? dodgey body, running gear or both? I think I got the misifre worked out. when I put the head back together I think I got two of the valve buckets mixed up and one valve is probably not closing completely

The other possibility is dented rims.

Nice work man, sweet paint job. I've go an old street machine somewhere with a similarly painted rover v8 powered RA28 somewhere, neat looking car for sure.

It lives again!, had it running yesterday. well idling, just its misfiring like it has a tesla coil for a distributor when you try to rev it. Neighbours probably thought I was shooting off a bunch of guns . hopefully clean plugs and some fresh fuel will sort it out though.
