Damn it, I so meant to grab that JAF badge off before I gave it to you Mean to see youre actually doing what I spent a more than a year putting off doing

/your own wheels. It's not a perma-loan!

Converted to FWD before the weekend?

Its a solid rear in an ae85 using an 86 2pc drive shaft. Thanks for the tips, that was a trick for young players!

Just a quick question: Do I need to allow for movement in the shaft between yoke and input of the gbox? (my own technical terms there). Do I need to allow a few mm's of movement rather than having the yoke hard into the back? I read a wee while back that due to lowering CDLs wagon the dshaft mashed the back of the box. I don't want that to happen to my w55. It's going to be easy to measure accurately as rear section of shaft fits good and front section is short, so can push right forward and measure between flanges.

Cheers for the offers guys, got it covered!

Anyone heading up in the next little while? I've bought a pair of wheels from Forest Lake but won't be able to get down there myself for a few weeks. Suitable remuneration in the form of beers or cash will be provided. Doesn't need to be to my door at this end! Cheers, Sam 021 0249 3707

Yeah, didn't get down to Devo that day. You can have a gander at mine if you want, see if you can figure something out (mine are off the car).

You've gotta drill out the guards. Probably best to take them off to do so (and the rest of the front of the car). Still want that spare engine?

It won't fit in the AE70. If I've got time to bring it over this weekend I'll flick you a text. It'll be sweet in the carport with a tarp over it. It's a 3AU, so no one will steal it

I blame Johno. If you want my spare 3AU can you take it soon? Otherwise I'm taking it to the scrappies, it's in the way of my wood pile and I almost broke my foot in the dark the other night EDIT: Went and had a bit of a nosey, car looks tidy in person!

How late do these occasions usually run?

Come and pick them up! PM me your number, I'll track it all down tomorrow.

Great quote there. I'll come and say hi next time I see you

This doesn't live in Glenfield by any chance does it? If not then theres an identical one parked a few houses down from my mates place with a guy working on it all the time

Could possibly do it for you on Saturday.

Where is the usual carpark? Keen, if I remember.

Bad. Saw you on Sunday turning onto Forest Hill Rd off tristram, I was in GX71 with mismatched wheels/you probably didn't notice or remember. Van was way rad-er than the homo erotic cars that populate the Shore.

Could be keen pending price.

Order on dem interwebs http://www.por15.co.nz/order.htm

Fuck! Completely forgot... again!!

Keen as to make one of these.

Borrowed my grandma's Charade for mine 'Cause the AE85 failed the spot check
