Shit that looks pretty.

Paint jealousy to the max

Damn this this oozes cool. 

Its hilarious how much space there is in the guards compared to wide steels. Plans to go back to eager spec steels or just live the charger life for a bit.

Go look on the innovate website. They are better, but these are cheaper and still tell you afr's real good like.

DIY autotune is having a clearance on all its LC-1 stuffs as it is being phased out with the LC-2

Cheep cheep

If this is for the van you put pics up of, if you flip that overload leaf back onto the bottom of the leaf pack it will probably lift the car close to an inch.

You will gain a half inch(/thickness of the overload) by just taking it off the top of the main leaf and a little more because it is holding the leaf pack flat.

EDIT: looked like a late 80's vanette on 17's, curbs/driveways should be an issue haha

Im the guy that wasnt there and now hates you all because it looked like a fucking awesome trip.

Next year is locked in.

on mk1s isnt the centre spun as part of the outer lip? 

ie you cant just split them and make a new lip, you need to make/buy a whole new centre with wide outer.

Gut the carbs and just use them as throttle plates?

Hide the injectors and it will look rad haha

Hot rpm on southern motorway and doorting past that other 86 was so awesome. Hah that was heaps of years ago now.

Me?

Fuck I like this car an annoying amount.

Fucking swooooon

one of the reasons on a pink sticker I got was rearranged leaf pack haha, I had duct tape and shit all over them though so it looked hori as shit

Looking at it again im pretty sure just the overload leaf has been flipped and put on top,take that and put it back on the bottom right way up and it will raise it a bit.

Clamp the pack together in a vice when undoing the centre bolt and you will be sweet.

That overload leaf is supposed to be the otherway up and on the bottom of the leaf pack and the second leaf up from the bottom miiiight be upside down but hard to say.

If you take them apart it will be obvious which way around they are supposed to be/ all arched the same way and get longer from bottom to top.

If one of the main leaves is flipped then watch it when you undo them as it will try to fly to pieces when you undo the leaf centrebolt.

Yes ride height like that!

This rules so much.

The velocity matters as much as flow, so a 1.5lt engine spinning at 10,000rpm will flow the same as a 3lt engine spinning at 5,000rpm. However, the velocity or the gasses will be alot higher, so the temperature will be higher, so the exhaust will have to larger than merely equivalent to a 3lt exhaust because it has to accommodate both the velocity and the increased tempature

10000rpm in a 1.5l engine is 125L/s air flow

5000rpm in a 3l engine is 125L/s air flow

Flow rate Q = Velocity x Area of pipe

There is no difference to the gas velocities under either condition as long as the pipe is the same size.

You have just failed High School Physics

Yes you are, as pipe dia increases there is a drop in friction due to lower velocities and changes in relative roughness of the pipe etc. It comes down to being more expensive for larger dia pipe but mainly you just cant fit a 6" exhaust under a car.

You really need to ask questions rather than writing "facts" like the above dribble as this is how misinformation gets spread on the all mighty internet.

EDIT: we are talking down the line here, I know nothing about megaphone exhausts/tuning for the correct frequency at the headers/collector but after that you just want to get it out.

Nobody will read anything that is longer than:

Buy this cos it rules, dont buy that cos it doesnt rule.

Please keep it as basic as poss...

So what do you buy then Dave?

I had a look through that site and the options are just about endless haha. What product would you reccommend for cheaper than ludacris $$, it works awesome, isnt absurdly large and is going to be easy to work with?

I will need some connectors in 98 years when it comes time to look into ute wiring.

Silhouettes rule somuch.

Do burnouts and laugh at how much gas it uses on the trip computer.

Does this also have the joystick audio controls?

Looks super awesome man, need to wind in some more low and run those headlight covers haha.

Giz pics of manifold post machining?

I was impressed with the little booze bag you had made/bought. Didn't notice the completely different frame shape haha.

How hard wearing is the plating?

Maybe make the rear one taper in towards the body a bit?

Is that it?

hah that was seriously 20 seconds of google time. You need to step yo game up son

That has some gussety looking things in it. 

How sketchy is the ramp onto the ferry.

Volvo's are cool, gotta be heaps slam though.

/go look at Eddie kilbanes volvo thread.
