  1. Have a mate going back to auckland from whakatane on sunday night, and another mate going to napier on sat, then back to whakatane on sunday, soooooooooooooooooooooooo if you get al to give them to jeff, then jeff can give them to me, and I can give them to mate, and then you can pick them up off mate in auckland. simple. or you could send them for $10.
  2. Puhuhuhuhuhuhu. Also, dont put TOO much heat into steel, or it will melt paint/warp steel anyways.
  3. Yep, get some heat in the steel, and just roll for ages, winding the roller out bit by bit, have to take your time tho, or the gaurd will get all warped and fugly.
  4. I got a bolt on roller, come to Whakatane for the weekend and roll that shit out.
  5. Yep, I just went out for a drive each night, loaded it up through the gears, then engine braked back down, kept it under 3500rpm to start with I think, each night going about 500rpm higher in the rev range, worked well. Just be careful of traffic behind you.
  6. Fo sho no flares, just roll and slam, looks mean. As for roof, for some reason I wanna say go red. Also what size are those wheels and what they cost ya? (if ya dont mind me asking) If you have rolled the lip in already, you may have to roll it back out, or just massage the guard out? Is amazing how far you can pull them out just by rolling and forcing them out, that should work on the rear, its the front that looks like it will be the mission, may have to flip lip out and shape/bog/paint.
  7. http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm ^ I did a lot of research on this before I ran my motor in, this guys ideas made a lot of sence to me, so did it this way.
  8. ^ Agree, amazing how much better the opel greel looks.
  9. I was gonna slap a lazy ol 3S in mine, had dreams of taking out D1 in it.
  10. So chur, also love carpet. Will look aws as with a bit of drop.
  11. Now that its complete, has it gained super powers of any kind? (apart from super gas consumption) Looks real preddy BTW, mega class.
  12. Kinda know a guy here in WHK that brings in jet ski's from the US of A for the motor+unit, makes those tiny jet boats for hunters, I could ask him what a motor would cost to get here?
  13. My 86 only has about 20mm suspension droop, and seems even less in compression (seems to use tire side walls as suspension?) never had any probs with WOFs?
  14. I dont think it was me? I have super shit memory tho. This is going to be choice. Excited. I love trailers nearly as much as I love lawn mowers.
  15. I doubt you will need help, but my brother in law went to oz and did the motec training thingey, hes a pretty bloody switched on dude, so if you need any help, I can ask him about stuff? Hes making his own "stack dash" style dash at the mo, should be a heap better then the stack dash (they are pretty pointless TBH) and about a 1/4 the price.
  16. I love the smell of hot motor oil in the evenings/my house. Love your work BTW, true professionalism all round. P.S. We have the same tea towles.
  17. Some interesting shit on here/pretty pictures: http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=735897
