FFFF**** this shit! myc back is all destroyed, my neck is in massive pain, iv beeen laying under the Rolla yesterday and today after school,  trying to figure out the freaking exhaust leaks, trying diffrent bolts and shit...

first problem--> the car will not fill the lift.. so i had to improvise

problem number two, the gearbox fell down...

soo therefore

Warning the weldign is crappy as i have to lay flat on my belly and then try to raise my head and hands to weld... its freaking impossible and exhausting!

IMG_3337_zpsb437f459.jpg

then i had a leak at the manifold to pipes,  found out i was missing a bolt and missing the gasket :o

then i managed to put the gasket the wrong way arround, im freaking hating that little 3k! been working on toyota M motors, and R motors, they are sooo much better to work on! why is the starter on the same side as the exhaust, Carb, and regulator?!??!   you need a lift to change the starter without removing the manifolds... grr

sooo then I'll drop by the Toyota dealership tomorow, and ill try to source a bolt that does fit :)

I cant stand my rims anymore, but im out of money, its not free to get a licence and its not free to get this car registerd ... sooo i cant use any more money...

anyways, got my new exhaust gasket, going to change that soon...

and i looked at some pics of some other 13" teta rims, but this time.. polished!

could not understand how they did get their plastic center covers polished but when i found mine i saw how..

a chip in in paitn revealed it all, they are plastic but have a aluminium plating over the front! :D

IMG_3349_zpsb6962330.jpg

sanded it down a bit, seems like someone painted i them with a crome spray then with a gray spray

IMG_3350_zpsfccb81c0.jpg

sooo im going to regret saying this but i am going to polish up my rims... going to take a loong time..

IMG_3545_zpse0bfe851.jpg
as all of you know, if you cut a pipe at an angle it looks like an egg afterwards... so my pipes did not fit my holes...
you can see the edge there.. a huge air block..
all 4 had these..
IMG_3554_zps823d0506.jpg
welded a bit inside there then grinded it back down
IMG_3555_zps7c7622c7.jpg
a bit more cleaning up and they are perfect!
IMG_3556_zpsaebbdcbb.jpg
lets just hope this is air proof... i just could not fit the weldder in between them so i had to do it this getto way..
