after radiator was filled from nearby cattle trough temp never came above one 3rd an it hauled ass. Yea not sure whats up with suspension, it seems to feel much stiffer than what i imagine standard would be im planin to get a decent setup made for it as all the shocks are pissing out oil anyways, keen to know how you built adjusties on eterna
-
na doesnt have cutties has standard springs front an aparently skyline springs rear, after 15 hours of listening to that 100k chime im pretty much ready to stab a knife in the dash!! how do i remove it?!

so picked up this boat from trademe, drove it back from nelson over the weekend, thanks to fuel for stopping when steam was pissing out just after taupo haha.
plans are to get it running mint, tidy up a few imperfections, eventually get some wider wheels and decent suspension

thats what happens when you dont have oveflow bottle hooked up for radiator and are to hungover to be bothered checking water, so plans are to investigate how fucked it is and then go from there may sell rims to fund engine work pm if your interested

since then i bought a 1979 l200 ute for 300 with 4g63 8 valve, i removed engine and tried to fit it to gearbox not realising for about 3 hours that the gearbox that was connected to 4g54 had a wideblock bellhousing so after figuring that out i ripped the box out and sold it and the 4g54 and couldnt use ute gearbox as it was 4spd column so started looking for a narrow block gbox.the guy that bought my wideblock gbox told me about a 1980 gallant at mangere pick a part with a manual box so i went a few days later and ripped it out and bolted up to engine at home and slotted both in easy as pie, but realised the driveshaft yoke was different so scored one that fitted and took to adl to get fitted to my driveshaft , sorted that and chucked it all in then whilst driving thought my clutch was bung or brakes jammed or something, after investigation realised one of the front wheels was wrong offset and was grinding into shock so scored a pair of sigma steelies, then a few weeks later brought alistairs star sharks, have since made exhaust back to just before diff using single muffler and straight pipe
sorry 4 lack of picks have just sussed how to get pics on comp and will update regularly with pics now
-
thought id better start this project thread, i got this off tm for 500 with auction stating it had blow motor.got it home fired it up after a new battery was added to the mix with some clean fuel and was a bit sluggish so after welding a muffler on to actually hear if there was any engine rattle, (as it only had the manifold an 500mm of tube and thats it) discovered it had a noisy bigend so having no idea what engine it actually was in there i ripped it out and started looking for a 4g63
-
