  1. Yea last time I did Burger Fuel on Saturday night wait was 15mins so not too bad.
  2. Guy I know had a 3.3 XE and put a turbo 4.1 in kept the orginal single rail 5 speed and years later it was still holding together. On the flipside another friend used celica boxes (dont know code number?) behind a standard 4.1 and he broke 4 of them. Really put me off celica boxes I think supra ones are the better maybe.
  3. Ive seen tow bars made for vehicles that are 10mm out. Things pull when welding so if its only 3mm out chances are it will fit with a pry bar or a bottle jack. If not refer to above 2 posts.
  4. I hope she enjoys a spit roast....
  5. So if we leave at 8.30 should catch you up about Woodend haha Did people get a PM with numbers?......if so Im feeling rather left out
  6. Looks like I'll just have to buy something in the way/ harden up sleep on a blanket.
  7. I've encountered a slight technical hitch in that the camping mattress I was meant to be buying off a mate is locked in his flat and hes stuck in Wellington for 2 weeks sooo would any good sort have a camping mattress or strecher of some sort I could borrow? If not I hope the convoy goes past a outdoors/warehouse store,
  8. Pretty sure Safe R Brakes will make you up what ever you require also
  9. You can ride with me in my manky ute if you want Hogan. Im currently lonely Although I won't be offended if you hold out for a cooler car to ride in haha
  10. ^^Good point I do have a Tig set up for aluminum but Im an hour out of chch
  11. Yea departure Friday morning so no panic to get there before dark for setting up tents etc.........on that note I guess I should buy a tent too If you carn't get off, the first time you see the defendant just be all "oh hay mate geezzzz have seen you in years your mum still on crack etc etc" and they should kick you of the jury pretty quick
  12. Google maps says that's smart. I was searching from "my location" so Authurs was only 10mins longer hence my silly question.
  13. Hmm works for me. Maybe you have to be friend Emma on Facebook?
  14. Could be nice to roll up in Ford, pencil me in for a spot please good sir..........probably be working hence pencil not pen Haha yeah I guess mustang owners are not the smartest folk..........
  15. When my XE failed wof on loose door hinges I drilled them out and put a bolt in with a nylok nut. When they get a little loose again you just tighten the nut abit Come to think about it my terrano is the same and a courier I owned and a hilux haha
  16. Will try but highly likely I'll miss this one
  17. Link is good now. Its hard to tell in that vid but I think the above advice is very good. Have you had the cam belt off at all?
  18. With the correct hose tail if your only running 250psi to 350psi then you would be fine id say. Most standard power steering lines are only fibre reinforced but with crimped ends. It would be really good to know what pressures your dealing with. Hopefully someone with knowledge on these things will read this thread.
  19. Link doesn't work for me
  20. Most power steering systems are more than your average hose clamp can handle. I make hydraulic hoses at my work and we often have to make replacement power steering lines for the local garage. If you take your old hardline to a Hydraulink or similar shop they would be able to make it up in flexy line for you. Normally power steering hoses have wierd fittings so we have to "life saver" them. (Basically cut your old ends off and weld them to a hose tail so they can be crimped to hydraulic hose) In the end it does all come down to pressure if you find out what your running you could save money in the hose used.
  21. I know of a 1.3 mk2 been parted out if thats any good to you
  22. Wasnt one 2-3 weeks ago when I was there. What do you need Hogan?
