  1. Yeah it was nuts, and to see the stands so packed anyway was cool, to make it worse we had to follow the 700hp f150 'mrsiko'
  2. yeah its sad when big company's steal good ideas from the little man, me and my mate entered in the scc winter skids in the primera if you saw it. fwd may be lame but was still a hell of alot of fun and well worth the $20
  3. Pictures - Just have to sort out tanks (probably done thanks to [i5oogt]), finish the gears, air filter, exhaust and welding, its about time this thing lit up the rear tire.
  4. yeah, keen to setup something big turn out wise, maybe even multi club like you mentioned a couple weeks ago.
  5. could do this weekend, would better actually
  6. So i have made pretty good progress with this, the engine is running nicely, and the gears seem to work. Pics will follow I just would like to know, what sorta base settings should a little scooter carb have, its a mikuni something, can find out if it makes a difference? im pretty sure i messed them up when the engine wasnt running and its not getting the full potential from the engine.
  7. if your keen on some 10mm slip ons then i have a pair i decided im not going to use
  8. I read somewhere that your supposed to paint the whole side at least at the same time, as paint is 'translucent' (not really the right word, but you get the idea) and one coat wont cover up miss matched shades? seems logical to me and i'll be doing this with my car.
  9. I must say its starting to sound a little dodgy/spamish
  10. isnt that starting to get back into long run though? perhaps we could plan two runs, say a month or so apart, one short, one long, day trip bbq and such for the long run, somewhere like akaroa or at the kart track in kaikoura, and around the hill, carpark/pub meetup for the short one?
  11. not keen to exclude people, so short run gets a vote from me
  12. Got it sorted with Chris, good guy, thanks for everyones help
  13. will do, will be good to get someone that will do a good job anyway
  14. also, prob just gonna go to firestone, any ideas on what their price is? regardless of any os specials
  15. rang a few places today including the one mentioned above in bromley, they all want 15 - 20 per wheel, this to me seems like alot of money, however this my be unjustified? should i expect to pay this much? if so i will
  16. Oh yeah, the rims and tires aren't on a car.
  17. heres hoping he sees this then and invites, not one to show up at someones place and ask for stuff
  18. Anyone here work at a tire shop or something along those lines or know of a place that does it pretty cheap. i need 4 tires put onto rims and balanced for as cheap as i can, also need valves, but if need be i can supply some. thanks
