What engine mounts did you use man?

Hey Ollie. Sorry about the late reply. Don’t come on here too often anymore. 

Was the altezza rubber mounts. And x2 “n” shape mild steel welded to the cross member with a. Hole drilled in the top to accept the rubber mount. And enough room beneath for a spanner and a nut. 

perhaps?

Hi. Currently looking for a flatmate. 

Room fits a queen bed. Has built in waredrobe. 

Fairly warm and nice 90's house. 

Must like dogs. Is a possibility that they have their own.

I own the place. So happy to change things. Make alterations. 

Option of using single garage (no power yet though) and/or carport. 

$130 a week including broadband. Split power. Thanks. 

Thanks K-Trips, will look into it. i have done a number of open homes with her at "pet negotiable" places. but none of them will consider her, as there is no shortage of people wanting a house.

Hi, 

Friend of mine needs to find somewhere to stay in Upper Hutt, or surrounding area. as far as Petone. Possibly further.

She has 3x dogs, which she never leaves alone. Her van is caged so they go everywhere with her. 

She trains/walks dogs for a living.

Any situation is considered, whole house, flatting with someone, sleepout, decent garage.

happy to pay above average rent, due to circumstances.

Thanks.

sounded good. completely forgot. 

Sounds good

Took this to the Track day before the nationals. Great day, so much fun, especially the back straight drop flag drags. Cant believe more people didn't come over to participate. Huge thanks to Truenotch for the hospitality and organising.

Thanks Amanda for the amazing photo.

Also this is now for sale if anybody is interested, will be up on TradeMe soon.

I deleted my vote as either day is sweet. (if i remember)

Definitely, Pacha's Cafe was great.

Much rather support somebody like him, than a national franchise as well.

Very nice car mate, any chance you could do a brief summary of parts needed for the swap as ive just picked up a beams setup and am looking into the exact same thing myself, looks like a blast to drive!

Cheers, yes is pretty crazy to drive.

Not a lot needed really, apart form the obvious engine, gearbox, driveshaft.

Link g4

Fuel pressure regulator 

radiator with the in/outlet on the corect side. (i was looking at a alloy ae86 one from china not long ago that was correct(may have been for a usdm ae86))

w5# series speedo cable to fit in the j160 and replace the electronic one (reads about 10% out on mine)

Last year the Australian channels website had it available to view here in NZ without a VPN.

(channel 7 i believe it was)

Yeah it depends on the shape of your adaptor manifold, whether it would suit silvertop or blacktop throttles.

 

As blacktops have the silly shaped exit hole, silvertop a bit rounder.

 

Yeah I think there are some bikes running bigger throttles than that. Some of the other options are trickier to adjust the spacing between the throttles, I think the GTR ones are in cast pairs?

 

I was browsing some Honda forums and a lot of those guys run 50+mm or 60mm quad throttles, they've got off the shelf kits... but they cost a friggen fortune!

the cast adaptor i used has heaps of chunkiness to shave off to be either blacktop or silvertop.

and yes GTR is cast in pairs, but that shouldn't be to much of a problem. We shall see.

Very interesting, i may just need to get around to removing my silvertops and replacing with my blacktop ITB's on.

The other option is GTR ITB's. Which surprisingly are not to hard to find. They are 45mm too from what i have read, will confirm soon.

Wow yes, those Streets look so dam good unpainted!

getting close to cert now too, exciting

Just realised its on my b-day so can't make it sorry.

Long time no updates,

Been trying to drive this as much as possible.

Slowly collecting parts that shall be fitted soon, such as rear TRD sway bar, TRD lightweight flywheel, OEM period correct fog lamps and some ke30 Lower control arms, which are longer so should provide a little more camber.

The list of other things i need, like seats, lsd/locker and clutch, keeps growing, but sadly funds cant provide. 

for those of us discussing china town last night, sadly the lunch special is only tuesday-friday

6pm onwards sounds good.

will be there when ever it is, unless i forget

Same here, have had one in my corolla for over a year now, no worries at all.

Welds are great, just had to replace the plastic drain bung with a metal one.

I think i paid $150 total and it came direct from china.

still looks so sweet. Fully understand, its a fine line between being low and actually driving it.

Keen for feilding. Also other smaller country pubs would be sweet to support. Since a lot seem to be closing recently.

Looks good, how did you get the throttle bodies so clean?

corolla booked in for a wof on Thursday, to hopefully be ready to be dragged along this month.
