Vintage Grumble

Yeh, I really should, aint even touched it in a good 4 or so months. I need to sell motorbike to get cash to pay for paint, as I spent paint money on hilux. Also, I have to do drainage work on lawn, so shed no longer floods, so I can work on car while not standing/lying in a lake. So its all the rains/monies fault.

I am also very interested.

Thank you for the info, happy sailing captain.

Could you be so kind, as to tell a gentlemen, what the exhaust set up on this vagina moistener is? Also, interesting about unpluging of stuff, and making it run better, I have a feeling Dud's one is not running 100% either.

I just have to say, after seeing this IRL, its sooooooo fucking sweet/I wish you were my dad.

It looks as funky as it smells inside. Much lubs for this.

Jeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Boooooooooooooooooiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii. Also, milk shits.

Haha, sweet update. You need to do more b/outs on my drive/my neighbours face tbh.

Major Tom, rodger.

I have some stripper that burns your hands through thick gloves. It is ace. Come steal it. Apply, soak, scrub, water blast, profit.

You have always been easy.

Yep. Sounds good to me. Wheres a good place to meet? Somewhere on the way out of Taupo I guess?

You would think so, but I guess its nearly impossible to prove anything? Just dont use them and bad mouth the shit outta them if they dont come to the party? I feel your pain Sir, theres nothing worse than months/years of anticipation and excitement about finishing a project to then have it turn to shit, it can ruin a man IMO. I think everyones gone through this to different degrees. This is the reason I have not touched my car in months, just got the shits with the rust and walked away, but you know you'll miss the car, and wish you never sold it if you did. You just have to take a break sometimes and wait for the bug to bite again. Good luck Sir. P.S. Put a 2ZZ in it.

I must say, it sounds rather quite good IRL. Mr KK, I think the front shox are shortenededed AE92 roller ones. They seem to fit into everything those AE92 items?

Me and Jhonny5 (and Duds maybe, not sure if he will go from here or Rapier) will be leaving Whakatane early Friday morning, keen to meet ppl in Taupo, I may have missed something, but is there a time or place for such a meeting? Regards, VG.

I think you need to stop running it on two stroke mix.

Tires was free, so I gave em a go. Changing tires wont fix it anyways, guards have to move to make this work. Atleast I dont have to worry about doing the stud conversion now.

Nah, tops of wheels need to come in about 40mm, so thats like 30 deg of camber I would need? The only way those wheels will fit on the back is to cut out the rear wheel arch and door, I dont know what the shit I was thinking when I test fitted the rims, I royally fucked this up. Sad face.

I got some 165 65 13 tires fitted to two of the rims today, and ordered two more. Got home and trial fitted the wheels, and it seems I cant use them, i'm so fucking gutted. The front is doable with a bit of gaurd stretching, but theres no way I can stretch the rears to clear the tires, they rub like mother fuckers. The only way to do it would be to shorten the rear axle two inches, or jack the car up even more and stiffen the springs, so thats kinda out of the question. Also, the wheels look mean until you fit them to the car, then they look shit house Would need to be super slammed to make wheels look ok, and I cant do that as they stick out too far. These pics dont really show how far out the wheels stick, but they would be a good 35/40mm, not a lot really, but the rear gaurd/door set up is just a cunt. Cocks.

You sir, can have my babies.

/washers like in dud's car.

Shit I dunno, have got around a sq meter for like $10 before. Also if you get the same gauge will be easier to weld. Go see wilsons behind 1XX, they are GC's.

Adequate work has been performed. I approve. Also, why use old steel?, go to panel beaters and buy a section of electro galv panel steel? If you need heaps can do a 1200x2400 sheet for like $60 or so I think. WORD PLAYER.

Cheers boss, I also cant wait for the 2011 alto meet! Its no doubt going to be FULLY SICK. I wish to, but I have shakey hands, may get the missis to do it. I got some pretty stainless dome nuts for the wheels today, didnt want to use cap screws as i'm pretty sure hexagonals weren't invented till after the mid 80's, gotta keep it OS. ALSO I got my money back for that orange paint, my old man will be so proud

Well, went to repco to buy fluro green paint, and they didnt have any, so ended up with gold, john player special all up in this bitch? I also harvested the 12mm wheel studs and nuts from AE101 to slap into the Alto so I can actually use these rims.
