  1. Hard to tell from the photos. What exactly are you doing to it? Pulling out the interior?
  2. Looks kinda like chch train station but I'm sure that's not it
  3. Loving your wips man. White civic would have been a fun sleeper!
  4. Keen to hear this using factory launch control
  5. There was a mark 1 in invers that was quite modded and not super tidy, he was wanting over 4k. I don't really know if anyone would be crazy enough to pay 5k for a fiat uno, but hey... Anyway, I'm moving to aussie next week so this thing can just stay in the garage.
  6. Cambelt is like a 10min job on a rwd 4age bro. +/- 1hour. Science.
  7. You will probably be able to hoard all of the 80's in your garage FYI.
  8. Gosh darn that's a sexy wheel. Love the dark line running around it. That garage in hinds is cool huh, usually stop in there to see what british treasures he has for sale. That brown trump has been there a while, and was reasonably priced for what it was from memory....
  9. Newfound love for turbo volvo's, workmate has an s60 and it's quite rapid for a Swedish tank. These sedans are sweet looking.
  10. Hey, It's needing a new clutch slave cylinder, so i'd get that sorted before sale, along with a new wof etc. Tread etc is all ok. Have oil and new filter to go with the car (not quite due a change). Mechanically seems to be great, engine is very strong and always starts first pop, no smoke, even under boost. I've driven it carefully, as did the last owner who had it for many years (older chap). Ideally I'd be looking at offers around 5k, given how rare the car is in New Zealand and the fact it can come factory standard (at the moment it has a re-washable K&N and a different rear parcel tray. It's an honest wee car with a good clean history. From memory it's done just over 90,000 miles. Besides the slave cylinder for the clutch nothing really needs done other than the rust around the passenger door lip I found last time I inspected the car. Shouldn't be a big job. Few wee broken pieces of trim (around the electric window controls) but all minor and easily fixable. I'd chuck some new badges on the back as they are a bit faded. I don't need to sell her, and don't really want too, but if the price was right and I knew it was going to a good home I'd consider it. Cheers.
  11. Car is in CHCH. But can probably help arrange cheap shipping to any major cities.
  12. Just throwing this out there... Would anyone be interested in buying this? Would come with a new WOF etc... I'm moving overseas soon and not sure if I should just keep it in the garage knowing it's hardly ever going to get used.... Thoughts?
  13. So when you say you need to pull it down, you mean so you can clean everything up? Or so you can replace some of the heat shield? Anyway, stoked it's sweet. I don't know who Toni is, but hope they are ok too.
  14. Gotta say I think it looks better all green, rusty bonnets look good on cars with mismatched panels, etc.. Diggin the rest of what you've done though man! Look after it, she's tidy as. Such a sweet colour too. Never seen another in that colour driving around...
  15. 1.6 is viscous, and shit. 1.8 is much better lsd.
  16. From those vids it looks like it revs pretty cleanly right up to the cutout. Factory motor?
  17. I'd have a look into some CCTV stz too. Mate did his place and wasn't too expensive to have a few cameras setup with night vision, and this is going back 4 or 5 years. Guess there's no such thing as overkill in Auckland..
  18. Did I mention I love the colour? Looks sweet all nearly finished bro.
  19. That would make sense. You can definatly feel it pulling from the front and back on ice, and it leaves two tyre marks on shingle..
  20. Question for you keltik, are the 5 speed's in the 2006 stz outbacks (2.5i Nz new) the same box as turbo? It's symetrical awd, but I'm not sure how it sends power to each wheel when you're on ice/snow etc. Don't think it has any lsd's. HIJAK
