The starter motor must be pretty good! 10 hours ago, Mof said: Looking so good man! Can't wait for driving/switch flipping vid Btw Gas struts go the other way around (rod downward). Keeps the fluid against the seal so they don't dry out and leak. I thought they did, shouldn’t matter too much as 99% of the time they’re going to be laying horizontal and the back won’t be opened very often. I’ll spin them around anyway 9 hours ago, fletch said: Are you just replacing the rod and piston? I have a 4.5 crank, rods, and pistons you can have. I believe it's a bolt in into the 4.1 block. Yeah just replacing the rod and piston. Have already sorted some 4.1 ones. Probably easier to just keep it all standard for now, thanks though! 47 minutes ago, MaxPower said: nice work, i find that exhaust wrap goes on tidier if you soak it in a bucket of water before wrapping. itchy bloody stuff I put it on wet, it just really didn’t want to wrap around the flexi’s very well. Yup wore gloves this time after doing the headers without them haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhangareiKE70 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 So many "Oh, HoW dOeS iT gEt OvEr SpEeD bUmPs?!?" comments on the Hoonigan Instagram post. As if bags don't exist/it would be that low if it wasn't bagged. Also a few "seen one, seen 'em all" comments, which if they are from 'Murica they may have seen a few, but I highly doubt they are done to the awesome standard this one is.

cletus Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 So good to see it out getting used. Do those transmissions have a kick down cable or is it all electronic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do those transmissions have a kick down cable or is it all electronic? All electronic. Have tested the readings on all the sensors and everything seems to be reading right as per the manual. When checking the engine codes it comes up with secondary throttle sensor, but I’m pretty certain that’s what controls the traction control, and it doesn’t have anything to do with the trans, so should be fine being de-pinned from the ecu. Its possible it’s just been two bad transmissions to start with! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
