    If there's any issues you can just give bore quick hone to roughen it again then do as rookie suggests. goal is to wear in rings before bore gets smooth
  2. Just watching national geographic Car SOS show where they give a nice old bug a makeover. it's a good watch if you get bored no doubt it's on YouTube if ya don't have sky
  3. / jiggle your ballsack lovingly against the seat
  4. everything i found said that setup will be shit on the street when turning. you should use just Ine of those arms in the middle
  5. hang on. It's only similar if you keep the lower outer links like factory and replace the tq tube Wirth a single ladder type frame in the middle beside the drive shift to stop the diff rotating
  6. Dam that's bad ass. is the front going to come down?
  7. Hey. .. ya get what ya pay for... and I'm CHEAP hahaha
  8. Haven't seen build thread but dam I hope this is the scorpion
  9. this is really it... better motors with more support that make more power cheaper. ls motors can be found cheap if you wait.it sounds like budget is an issue (it is for everyone here) so unless you have a particular love of toyotas just go buy something that is actual v8 and then have fun driving. I love my v8 coon and they can be found for less than 4k. IV seen manual conversions for less than 1k. I have also seen a coon do about 10 laps of the terapa roundabout sideways chev/holden is better but you pay more for wof reg car

  11. Wow, you are making good progress mate!
  12. I reckon easiest way would be to lathe up a plug and mould trumpets with cf or fiberglass. I have no experience with injection molding but surely it's an expensive process?
  13. Maybe do a compression test first? Imagine if all it needed was fluids and very basic mechanical stuff
  14. That black one looks amazing aye. Just needs a sump guard. I wish I could convince the wife that I need a bike
  15. Nice bike man. Single sided swing arms never seem to be used off road. I wonder if there are strength issues.
  16. Yeah very funny! He was like look at this sweet Wagon I got a pic of, qI think it's an old Buick. Then I looked up the build thread and we both went shit small world- cars are visually identical so must be the same. I'll get the pic up asap
  17. I haven't been following this but did you drive the wag to bathurst? My dad in law went over and came back with a pic of this car (guessing)
