nothingsfree Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Fuck yeah bro lookin good! Got any pics of the engine?? Are you planning to cage it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MESDUP Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 no pics of engine yet, hopefully have it put together by end of the year as i have everything for it, just concentrating on panel and paint for the moment. No plans to cage it yet as it should be sweet for a few seasons without one until i trade the pp in for something turbo. hopefully i can keep a steady stream of progress photos coming as i dont want to sit on the car for ages and lose interest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nothingsfree Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Where did ya get the shifter from bro? Im pretty keen to get one for mine... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MESDUP Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 http://www.trademe.co.nz/Members/Listin ... er=2669944 the one he has listed is a different one, as you exchange your shifter for one of his but he will more than likely relist the one i bought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MESDUP Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Coming along nicely, how much did your clutch setup cost? Because Im gonna have to run something very similar with the whole 13bt to w58? whole set up came from green bros in tauranga , somewhere around the $1100 mark i think, i will go through my receipts and see what actual costs were $267 that clutch is guna be nasty to drive with a pp Tell me about it, anyone know of any reasonable chromers in the b.o.p/waikato region? hah hopefully wont be too bad, being injected they are a bit easier to drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MESDUP Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 yeah not too bad a price, is the same package as what most of the guys that shop at green bros use. hey gaz atleast this time round i have replaced the wheel studs before they get a chance to fail on me, plus i dont wana break anything cos i dont wana spend the same kinda cash buying stuff i have already bought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Yeah true that. Spending lots once is better than getting shit stuff and having it break twice!

MESDUP Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Hey bro, got boot painted and my surge tank and CAS got polished which are being brought back to me today, got engine, gearbox and bumper mounts powder coated along with my sparewheel cover, was ment to put my new discs back on but lost a wheel bearing for the front so have to wait til next week to get another. Also plates have been painted and dropped back off to our engine builder, so yeah thats about all i have done recently. Just bought a 1UZ hilux surf so just spent all my cash on tints sounds and exhaust for it so am a bit broke, got it for a good price and thought it was about time to get my own tow vehicle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
