  1. this is true but isnt retarded timing better for boosted situations?
  2. well here is be more pics, working on more shineys and more low this weekend using the charade as a parking ramp lake trans rebuilt 2000ks ago and fitted with 50.9mm comp wheel
  3. i know that but the timing marks should still line up no matter where i move the pump too its like the belt is slightly longer???
  4. also my injector pump is 1/2 a tooth retarded anyone care to explain how this is possible?
  5. 2kg of kitty litter and 1kg of washing powder and almost no stains are left
  6. so decided to hurry up and just did all full gloss black ill 2 tone it later probably matt on gloss also finally fixed the stripped cam belt tensioner bolt and fired her back into life.... shortly followed by a rena re-enactment but with all the atf flooding the drive, twas black so probably a good excuse to flush it more progress soon hopefully more rape too
  7. @gaz the etch and hi temp stuff is actually pretty good shiz
  8. the paint is as good as the price reflect and the bog is ok but needs to be sanded as soon at its gone off as it turns to granite over night. if you are going for a repaint its worth investing in good paint as buying cheap stuff will satisfy you for a few months till its starts to dull, fade and chip. not ripping into the 3m brand as its generally good shit but if you want long lasting results then its not the paint you are after
  9. ALLSTEEL did me a mean deal on the rails and i fully recommend them for all your sheet metal requirements etc etc ideally ill have it rolling for when we move/find a house which yes is a massive pain in the cunt but aslong as i have it structrally sound enough to move with out bending it ill be happy
  10. i had a rust free minter but nobody wanted it for a dollar so i scrapped it dan, ive got one from a 2009 corolla, havent looked into controlling it yet
  11. hiding is not the object of the game make sure you wash it with a wax free detergent afterwards (dare i say dishwash liquid) it will remove any fillers left by the compound and show your true result
  12. oh hai had some motivation recently, coming in the form of being given 8 weeks notice to move out of my man cave so ive been forced to do this 2x4 alignment thats all for today
  13. would a single non welded chunk of appropriately sized chromo bar/thick tube threaded at both ends then fitted with sweet/shiney joints and lock nuts still needs lots of paperwork for the front?
  14. also dont aim for shine from the get go, products can lie to you ie waxing a panel cut with 2000 will look better but really isnt you need to get the swirl free gloss with cutting compounds and your finishing wax will add the depth try some c20 on a firm foam pad then your 05 on a soft foam pad then see how it looks without any wax
  15. can take days to get a dark car to sweet standards ive tryed heaps (probably everything worth trying) of products and mirka c20 is a harsh paste, if you have a little budget left go out and get some farecla G3 and a farecla compounding foam pad for your first buff, buff that shit in at 2000rpm till its cleaned its self off then hit it with a black foam/waffle pad and a 3m machine polish (available in dark paint specialtys) crank the speed up a little and use a bit of water spray and plenty of polish and buff it clean again ive never used 1500 trizacs only 3000 and i did once try the 2000 mirka foam pads but found they took too long to buff out so went back ps my van is 2k black and made of pigtails so i feel your pain
  16. nah havent mixed/decided on the silver/gunmetal/metalic black i want to use its just going to follow the line around and over the wheel arches
  17. fesh paint? 3000g trizacs are the bizniz so moare c20 (i prefer g3 over mirka but hey its all toothpaste) hit it again withe the buff also if you are using a lambswool pad they take ages to 'break in' and new ones dont cut for shit
  18. looks like this right now hoping to have it ready for nats/scooter transport still need to make raditor, make exhaust, finish polishing, apply silver 2 tone, SLAM ETC
  19. look out for specials on supercheap satin black fixes all sorts of paint fuck ups
  20. one mo ting ill also throw in some cash munies again (provoiding the mrs gets a chob and stops spending mine) to aid getting you sacks up there i still have a spare wank account that hasnt been used since last nats if one is needed again for errbody to deposit there loads
  21. im down like your mum hopefully the hiace will be fully resurrected/erect by then and i can cruise in comfortable air conditioned style can there be a small motorised vehicle even at this meat/mopeds? and and and ive perfected my muffin mix so ill be far more alive for this one that is all
  22. ideal time to use the damaged ones for gear and chain conversion also why is it currently not running
