MrMcdoll Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Noice choice of car, always dug these things. I also believe I have a HKS exhaust manifold for that engine of yours if your keen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikewazowski Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Cheers dude, I saw it one week when I was back visiting my parents and decided that I had to have it. Bought it and have never looked back. Fell in love with them so much that I have a wagon version now as well I still see the guy that sold it to me occasionally and he always says he is glad he sold it to me. That feels good to hear I could be interested in a sweet HKS manifold. PM me with how much you are after for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 It looks like you need longer lower arms with that front suspension setup change you've done, it could be a bit of an optical illusion but it looks as though you've got some slight posi camber up front.

Bang on. Apparently when they designed the 610 they used the 510 lower arms but moved the upper mounting points for the struts further apart (I guess to get more engine bay room?) which gave them inherent positive camber. Some of the 610s came with factory-fitted offset strut tops to counteract this. Like many others, mine didn't. I've got some rose-jointed adjustable lower control arms here to put in it, which I'm hoping will allow me to dial in a degree of negative camber. First I need to get my wagon back on the road so I can drive that while I work on my sedan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or are you asking if I race? /NZ European Fuck I actually laughed out loud at "/NZ European" though what I was meaning was will you accept a race of your 610 against my C110. Though I do have to actually get mine legit again aaaaaand we would need a race-track to compete on, because I'm weird like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikewazowski Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Just give me your wagon. *arms in the shape of an X* No Deal! I'm tentatively hoping to have the wagon back on the road this weekend. If all goes well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I accept your race, although I have little (read: no) racing experience so I will probably lose. And yeah, racing on the track as opposed to the road is definitely the go. I can't wait to see your C110 on the road. I have followed the progress with interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikewazowski Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Looks mean, jealous of your sweet paint Cheers. The first paint job was done outside, while the second one (last three pictures of the entire car) was done in a booth by some professionals. To be honest, the quality was about the same, and I wouldn't have resprayed it if I wasn't getting the rust cut out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 I have little experience also, so it would be a battle of the amateurs. If I lose I'll have to go all Triple Carb Turbo to save face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikewazowski Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 J5 - I live/work in Kawerau/Edgecumbe of all places. E - Box of piss sounds like the a sweet deal to me. I'll hit you up when I'm coming over to Hamilton next (will be within the next few weeks). mml - It goes pretty good. It's not as fast as a modern turbo-charged car like an evo/skyline or anything but it hums along pretty nicely. Given a few Commodores/etc a bit of a scare It also has an insanely loud spool for such a small turbo which makes me laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
