  1. It seems to be specific to the bigger ratchets because none of my bahco files have gone bad.

    have had bad run with bahco ratchets handles in the $300 multi kits they sell, they don't take well to getting any engine / hydraulic oil on the handles and worse to brake cleaner trying to get it off. apart from that they are a quality ratchet, though the statement itself renders them useless, annoying using spongy slippery shitty handles to the point ive replaced a few with a horribly expensive 80 clicker.

  2. you've fully done me proud. ive never completed a project in my life but i feel like id becoem part of this through your updates. of awesomeness an 8 steps backwards as they appeared. i even stopped checking in on them cause thats the type of punter i am. if i could of sold off my interest in your project I probably would of

    its been a long journey of epic updates

    but well f*kn done. ace. i luv that car. swaps for my nana?

  3. Hahaha, did you try it Mike?

    G clamped them to bench an hit them with flapper disc, didnt really take much off but went like shit an developed a spluttery rev 4-5k.

    its prob a "mod" for old shit SOHC derby cars, once they have been derby'd. but entertainment was had an thats all i was after.

  4. i think it comes down to the whole " how bad do you want it thing ' or the first in first served

    most pple in this day and age are always looking for bargins or to get one up on someone else but doesnt always happen and they seem to get a bit anti about it

    , and in saying that not everyone knows what everything is worth, hence " open to offers " what not etc

    i think you will have to just deal with it

    i do the whoel make a offer thing a bit over the counter at work

    example i have a $1000 hyd filter that i have had for 5+ yrs every yr it devalues 15 - 20% on the companys books, 5 yrs down the track if someone wants it ( at this stage it owes the campany zip ) i will go

    make a offaz yo

    they will normal go 500 ( mean theres my cost back ) i will then go yip sweet and a 24 box for the w/s boys and sweet

    etc etc so on and so forth

    sweet., well done. feed the w/s boys piss you good cunt.

    I'm not on about some tax write off, was a 4WD hilux xtra cab ute the cunt wanted "offaz".

    Didnt think a hilux owner would sell a nce ute to such a dick but someone did. Shame.

    He was just after offers, hoping some other young cunt would take out a 20 grand loan an buy a 10 grand wagon off him at extortion price./

  5. You do strike me as the "offaZ" type. I dislike the offaz type guy. Time wasting bullshitting overpayin over charging generation

    Lol thats a bit stink.

    If you think the offers thing is gay then don't buy their shit.

    yeh it was. I edited it. get over it.

    sometimes I do find something I want to buy an get FUCKED OFF becasue some dick cant decide how much he wants to sell it for.

    Is it sheer greed or is it a new generation and way of trading that I need to adapt to,

    hope fukn not

  6. basicly someone could offer more than they were going ask. its good to get a base figure of what they're willing to pay.

    are you the "offaZ" type? I dislike the offaz type guy. Time wasting bullshitting overpayin over charging generation

    Whilst I did not create this to discuss whether or not ripping people off is moral ethical or all good, those who are near on illiterate claiming the sale price is OFFAZ ONLY more often than not miss out on a sale whilst waiting for there next offaz type clone to come along and overpay for some POS slammed on 20s etc

  7. Why the fuck are kiwis so hesitant to post asking prices for something there trying to sell?

    claasic examples is the "just afta offaz" or "DrOp Us A tEXt WiD uR oFaZ oR sWoPz"

    etc even on internet forums and even on here?

    Is there some kind of shame linked to you selling something?

    Tall poppy syndrome or not? I see no shame in making money buying and selling, its how people make money FFS,

    I ignore shit for sale with no asking price. Older cunts than me ignore completely. I hate fags with worse literacy skills than me. An i really am pretty lax. As you can tell fgrom my non edited clumisly poorly sped typed rants

  8. I know you guys are Toyota hard but perhaps consider a Triton? For the price of a 2WD Lux you can get a fully optioned double cab 4WD Triton - they have pretty much the same power and torque delivery too. I never really liked the look of the front of the Hilux but the rear of the Triton is nothing to write home about also. The Triton is the only ute which offers in-cabin selectable rear differential lock-up control.

    All the new utes are americanised an fugly as fuk

    Go the hilux 4wd SR5 style if the boss is paying

    Have towed cars around the country an stil hit 11km's per Litre, of free diesel, the engines sound like there about to run a bearing from day one, but are prob best out ther, why settle for a triton? IMO, though Get the dealer to ditch the shitty ass biscuit tires they come on, you got to wonder what the fuck there doing on there

  9. the only engine at pick a part i'd considered buying was the little red fiat uno, that stayed IMMACULATE for weeks on end, untouched. anything else is at pick a part for a reason, only reason i send wrecks there is cause its a free rubbish removal from the street, an there fucked!

    be going up tomorrow to grab yet another fucked l300 alternator, will have a look at price.

    a manual p6 wiht superlites sold for 800 on retradme few monthws ago, though the engine would be wasted in a escort an should be put in a mgbgt.

  10. It may also gay the car up 10 fold.

    If you want to run a straight six then turn towards the Nissan/t range IMO

    chris is gay, an the donor car is free... what could go wrong.

    buy a deregd p6 or sd1 an put the v8 made of in cans in it.

  11. bike motor will pritty much have max lift already

    better to just weld the ramps and get the duration up there in saying that .....a high reving bike already has some good duration

    Not that high revving and doesnt pull well over 12k. But thats probably more that the air box doesnt seal on the carb. Even with duct tape and silicone.

    Technically I dont mind sacrificing the bottom end pull for more theoretical top end pull,

    realistically I dont mind destroying the bike.

    It was a free.

    I will take photos of the cam lobe weld an hack job for your viewing lols

  12. What kind of engine is it?

    Stuff doing it on anything more than a single cylinder, you'd never get any of the lobes the same.

    Crackup though, I definately see the funny side of angle grinding cams, do it for us :twisted:

    thats what its about. none of the lobes will be within 2mm of each other. if it never runs again ill give it to a mate or take to the tip. not think of it again. though ill try it again on a single in a few months.

    its a hunk of shit gsx400x impulse, 400cc 4cylinder DOHC but with shitty twin port carbs. weak point on the bike. until 170-180 when coils show there weak shitty bits that should be on hyobag

    i have another running impulse to compare it to if it does go (badly)

  13. HOW MUCH METAL SHOULD I SPEW ON IT?

    massive lift ftw

    just throw about a cm on and work with that. I saw chip foose do it, so it must work.

    Will work with ~10mm theory

    Engines already out its teh spare bike (oldschool as!) but have a complete running other one to compare it to.

    If it ever goes again will take some vid/sound footage

    There are shit cv carbs that never seal proper on it to.

    8 lobes to fuck with = lots of fun

    theres no way an angle grinder and a welder will get to .01 mil but will get lumpy

  14. yea some weld them up to increase lift, most will reduce the base circle and run bigger shims. To do this accurately with an angle grinder you would have to be a robot. You wont get any gains if it even runs at all

    ITS NOT ABOUT GAINS.

    ITS ABOUT AMUSING MYSELF.

    TYPICALLY HOW MUCH METAL WOULD ONE STICK ON? FEW MILL?

  15. Mate Duncan has done this before in his stockcar.

    Apperntly it does work.. Dunno how long for tho as youll go through the hardening.

    annoyingly twin cam but interested

    to increase lift etc wouldn i have to lengthen the lobe?

    or does hacking away the sides of the lobe do that?

    once ive had my fun with it ill give it away so not worried abotu fucking it

  16. hey hoes

    i have a free engine to play with, its got a blowen head gasket, ive got the head off.sitting next to the cams on the bench is my angle grinder....... not a bench grinder an angle grinder.

    any tips an tricks?

    Success stories please
