  1. Can I cut out this highlighted section to fit a radiator and still be legit?
  2. Wheres the fun in that though and custom radiators are $$$$
  3. Might be a bit too wide looking at those measurements the top tank is 670mm x 50mm
  4. The yellow peril
  5. Went to Pickapart yesterday with tape measure in hand to try find a more suitable and readily available radiator. Turns out it was quite a mission as most radiators are too wide or too tall or have the water outlets in the wrong place. After checking everything there it came down to 2 options. Honda CRV or a Ford Telstar. Telstar was the winner on the day as it had a thicker core and was that bit bigger than the CRV unit. Quick test fit was promising bar 1 issue, top outlet is right where the alternator sits so getting a hose on there isnt happening. Was thinking of going to see the local radiator barry and maybe find a top tank that will fit the core but have the outlet on the drivers side then do a swap. Other option is find a diesel Capella radiator as its the same overall dimensions but the outlet is already in the right spot and is a full copper unit with a slightly thicker core
  6. Whatever we take I can jack up the ferry trip
  7. Would be keen to come for a Wednesday night race sometime, did one years ago and it was great fun until ol mate cocked his turn up at the boat ramp into an outgoing tide and punched a hole in the bow on the jetty
  8. There will be no PGs left by the time I arrive though
  9. I wouldnt drive that thing 1 KM let along across both islands. Got a free ferry trip to use up too
  10. I could cum if the wounders find a shit local car they want in the south island. Load it up with PGs then I'm good to go
  11. Id rather keep the clutch so the SC14 isnt just pumping heat all the heat all the time
  12. The radiator situation is proving to be a bit of a headache as the available space is minimal thanks to the S/C electroclutch pulley taking up alot of space. where you would ususally plonk a nice thick rad for plenty of cooling. Did a bit of mocking up today with a couple of radiators I had kicking round its looking like a unit from a GA61 Supra will juuuust fit with a pusher fan on the front of the radiator. This one is pretty beat up and manky so will see if I can find an alloy option
  13. Rookie Daves diesel mobile doggin unit
  14. I think iv compared TF vs TS barrel before and maybe the port timing was a bit different on the TS
  15. Yeah keen on SW20 rad size and quality review. Iv been eying one up too
  16. What have you done to your TF @SOHC
  17. My wheels have the center sandwiched between the barrels so it was extra cunty to get them to seal but I got there eventually although a couple have developed a slow leak after sitting for a couple of years so il revisit it once I need them road worthy again. From memory I scuffed the barrels with a wire wheel on a grinder and lots of brake clean before going to smoo town
  18. Scrape it all out and run a bead round the join. Smoo it out let it dry and then do a 2nd bead/smoo over the top of that. I used sikaflex 291 because thats what I had lying round and it seems to stick well to the alloy of the bands
  19. Whats a spray on grey underseal thats a good match for whats factory applied to a 2000s Toyota? I hit something on the road that made a bit of a dent in the floor pan and scraped the underseal off. Panel smashed it good again but need to get some underseal on there to make it look factory again before going for a wof
  20. Just needs a couple of LED whippy boys on both sides of the front bumper and a kenworth windscreen banner
  21. This guy exudes Erics dodgy gold mine
  22. Can you count input turns to output turns to work out ratio?
  23. Surely you can find a 140cc pitbike dumped in a reserve somewhere local to you after a whooliboi police chase and make a big bore adv CT
  24. That Hansen fitting will be fine with the heat. I've run them on the back of a fireplace to hook up a wet back and they didn't even go soft with 80 degree water running thru them
  25. Select japan since it was a jap market car then year and model then engine type
