  1. Try NZ Impers, on Facebook.
  2. Measured from top of arch as far as I know. Won't be many arches that don't curve inward. This part of the PDF covers bolt on flares, but if if you just have unmodified body, then measure the same way and should be good. I'm sure Clint will confirm yeah / nah. https://www.lvvta.org.nz/documents/infosheets/LVVTA_Info_05-2020_Tyre_Track_Protrusion.pdf this one shows factory body better vs tyre tread, only shows front/back profile with top of arch used as reference https://vehicleinspection.nzta.govt.nz/virms/in-service-wof-and-cof/general/tyres,-wheels-and-hubs/tyres-and-wheels#tab2 Unless it was posted by someone you know isn't an idiot... then take with salt. Front guards for example tend to just bolt on, so I can't see how they would link that to being structural. That said, people will probably ruin guard rolling too, by taking the piss and they will have to bring in rules. Had to flare mine to get enough clearance through full suspension travel for my cert. Didn't even come up as a mention when I explained how I got the clearance. Double skin in rear of mine so fold it over doesn't really change much. Front couldn't do much as bolt on single skin so weak as fuck arch.
  3. Keen for your timing brains. Thanks for offer on burger but I pretty time poor as well tonight. But keen for some sharns for a bit anyway. Edit: oh lol, well if it can't be looked at tonight that's all good if you happy to short term lend it while I work out how such things work.
  4. Does anyone have a timing light / the knowledge to check my Rolla if I drag it along? I have no idea what I'm doing so haven't solved my dieseling problem. Will just hang out pre burger as poor lol.
  5. Yeah one of those helmets would do the trick for sure. I just rolled 18V fan blowing all the goodies out of the car and outside the environment. Can't really justify such luxury when I only weld once a year on average.
  6. While painful to weld upside down, inside a boot, I never had any issues with plain wire + gas. I wouldn't do that with flux wire unless I was going to drink a lot of milk afterwards.
  7. I guess no benefit for them to do so since they can't do the work and get the upsell. Compared the normal garage where you get a list and say getterdone.
  8. Might have just been bad luck? My inverter welder must be ~10 years old now, doesn't get thrashed but has always done a good job for me on MIG stuff. Aren't both those inverter? Might have wrong link posted.
  9. Seems legit till you get a new one. Has to be better than a snapped in half one.
  10. I flushed my lines to death when I had my rear brakes rebuilt. There was a lot of gunk hiding in there so for the effort involved, it was well worth it.
  11. No idea what the issue is, but i'd at least start with a flush and see how much crud comes out. I've had multiple rear brake balance problems in the past and the specs of dirt in the proportioning valves that caused it were pretty small. Doesn't sound like you have that valve, but i'm just mentioning it as it build up caused lots of headaches. So any build up could be contributing. Someone else will have had this issue before and comment i'm sure. But with old shit, and lack of fluid changes, build up occurs and can cause issues. Just something to start with anyway. I think the cars I had issues with were split diagonally for braking. Current old cars have a tee on the diff to split the single line from front. If no crud in the line to the rear and no build up in the rear tee (could be worth whipping off and cleaning out). Then yeah I guess something is up with master as that is the only other part in the system.
  12. How many lines running to the rear? I would whip all of the fittings off and give them a good clean out. I'm guessing you have given the whole system a good flush?
  13. Someone has probably put up a website with all of the different driveshaft lengths and their compatibilities. I'd hit up google for a while and see what you uncover. You're lucky they are a popular model with lots of info available online, many models aren't so lucky.
  14. Looks to be the case, not a bad markup.
