Evan Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Useless fact of the night I just remembered, Savannas have the radio aerial in the windscreen, and I've heard something about the doors either having or not having side intrusion bars (they have the opposite of what the rest of the world got, I forget which way around this is and not sure if legit info or not). also, WHOOP WOF, I vote keep those wheels too.

Vintage Grumble Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Does it have a line lock? Did it get a wof with that in there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danger Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 That was gonna be my question VG. I've had to remove line lockers for wofs in the past and they were a shit tonne less obvious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pump the tyres up to 40+ psi, do a skid, post skid vid on os, buy some new tyres. Sounds like a plan to me, just need to find somewhere to do it, not keen on loosing my licence....

rotor_dude Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 might be too late for flat spots, how long they been sitting ? there is a technique to get rid of them with tyre pressures and driving, but its not exactly the safest lol skids wont fix flat spots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you really have to ask that question The question was more would a burnout fix them, i was always going to do one regardless ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea looks very similar, am loving driving mine... it was orginally going to be a tidy up and flick on for a profit but its growing on me!

rotor_dude Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 do at your own risk, id do on a straight road, not many people use etc lower tyre pressures to 10 psi, drive safe and increase distance between cars etc, go for longish drive then pump tyres upto 50 psi, same again, increase distance between cars etc, go for longish drive then set to normal tyre pressure, road test and check repeat if needed keep a big distance between cars, as brakes and handling dont work aswell if there is cracks in sidewalls etc, then above probably wont work, or not worth doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D1RTY6 Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 Looking at getting this thing tuned next pay, Have a few questions Who is a good place to go to in CHCH (have only heard of mates taking theres to RE Sinclair) What can i be expected to pay for a general tune up?? (running Nikki 4 barrel) What sort of km/L can i be expecting? (Was told it was running a J port but im pretty sure its a BP, im not expecting alot but a ball park would be good) Thanks in advance Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
