oh yup true, give old sterling a bell, located in onehunga... http://www.sterlingbrake.co.nz/ also depends on what its doing and when, ie does it piss out when pushing pedal in or when releasing the pedal?

just replace the whole unit master cylinder, depending on what car its for and availability... if not then sort the seals out, flush the whole system (brakleen) and put new fluid in at least. also having that fluid going everywhere its a paint stripper so once its sorted make sure you deal to the places its stripped, if its not the master cylinder then check the hose, down to the slave. You'll have new stuff sorted for under a hundy buck.

cheers will crack on with it and see how it goes... hopefully not the cracking part! awesome lads.

hey folks ive heard theres a trick to putting a window back into car with a peice of rope/string but didn't find any decent youtube videos or maybe i didnt look well enuff Any peeps here can chime in on how to do this... Cheers Rob

also when starting the car in P (park) does it make a difference if you try in N (neutral) at all? happens on the middys car and this solves it, the not starting part. Applicable to autos Oil pressure switch wire loose on some cars effects the starting as well.

ready to try this...

sweet will do, went and got some new front wheel bearings today, same ones listed for vc ve vf valiants and early toranas so may have a few hub ideas later down the track...

fuck yeah il take that... noone else had a tandy and trailor was headed for the scrap man anyways... wasnt too bad for the little 1.5 donk

not much left that wasn't salvageable... will be getting back into the shell now for some finesse touch ups with the mig... Has anyone got any 1800 slant parts; need bottom pulley and fan/waterpump pulley (or knows if the 2.3 is the same).... keen as for one of those... cheers

Aw yeah... One of them pssssst woosh things

maybe not hb, is there much difference in the mounting points? anyways i see now they look to have a raised bit in the middle which these ones dont.... as you were

have a few bumpers as well alex, dunno about if the chrome is of quality or just cheaply done but they are shiney... but nonetheless ive got one here if no go with vivaspeedgeoff... goddam tailgaters... need to activate the smoke screen out of the exhaust system next time so they back off a bit/ fumes all up in their grill

i now know what you mean about the steering wheel facing inwards a bit. Didn't notice till i fitted a racing wheel... draws you into the centre of the car instead of straight ahead from the seat...

do you mean 6 mill pipe to feed fuel rail?

Yes give her a birthday plenty of ks left on this engine. NANAIT.JPG

Test coil and power to coil got a voltmeter or test light? If it has power to coil then trigger would be next piece to check.

i thought it was this one you bought, http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=737910849 anyways that's another shell in taupo as they are gettin thin on the ground. Will have all the rust tho and they have cut the firewall out choice one you mad buggers!

just gunna slowly take insides out, then wip the slant out, then il see whats good... i did find that the rotors arent any thicker than my ones in there so but i heard today that a mod to some renault 21 rotors and some head scratching will possibly do the trick... il keep you in mind alex. oh this one has sway bar too so pretty chuffed about that... go away rain....

yep, parts of an 1800 havent really sorted out whats what yet... mean score tho

So got another parts car, Got her home with this Has a few bits i need to get my one in ship shape, and its always good to have a few spares. Big thanks to Anthony for the hookups and sorting it out. OSGC

tidy up of the engine bay. sussed the radiator out, has fan attached which runs off the link via a relay, still need to get the OG temp sensor working for the dash cluster. also blow-off valve needed a vacuum link so ran one off the top of the throttle body seems to be much better. moved igniter and relays into one corner and the catch can moved to a suitable place. Few holes to weld up and the engine bay will be complete.Seats are attached properly now Starts and runs fine now now need to work towards getting the driveline and brakes sorted still heaps to do...

Keen for a bus house, one of them old yellow buses from back in the day. This is totally awesome.

Tps needs the correct values sent 5 v in and then ones an earth that and the third is the one sending values back... If its got 4 wires ones an idle sense. Multimeter and feeler gauges to set resistance at particular stages of its rev cycle... is throttle body and tps all Og?

oh my that engine... was wondering when this would happen as i was reading through the thread... nice one

new feet 215 50 13... get to keep the ol wheels... motivation levels are at all time high
