  1. Grover? Wait, whose the one who lives in the bin on sesame street? EDIT: grouch or Oscar the Grouch or Oscar
  2. Are you looking at a sound system? Why don't you make the green swich into sort of a push-button start?!
  3. Maybe it was Roger Moore's daily And whats the story with the Hyundai headunit? Curious!
  4. Mates 26 slides easy in the wet, only mods to the back are blocks! Which is ironic because so many new commercial vehicles still use them!
  5. Used an R31 skyline diff, not shortened he said.
  6. I saw that.. What do you need for rego? Apart from ride height obviously ;) that thing's draggin it's ass!
  7. I love the look of the interceptors! Are you planning on keeping it a daily or branching off in the long run into drag or something?
  8. Awesome idea, I was thinking about doing something similar to my old festiva :dance:
  9. I stand corrected!
  10. Are you serious? Some chrome ones would finish this off! It would look so retro. They would even look factory I reckon!
  11. She's calling for fender mirrors :( love the whitewalls
  12. I saw this old as video on youtube a while back, I can't find it now but he had wire mesh, like the fly screen stuff, and laced teeth floss through it, poked the mess through the hole(holding onto the floss) then pulled on the floss to pull the mesh back and flush with the metal, then pulled the floss outwards and taped it to the panel on each side of the hole! Then bogged it up as usual over the mesh! The moral behind this story is use flossing stuff :(
  13. Love the starlet cook mate! I had no idea they were rwd!
  14. I can get anywhere on my bmx quicker than any car, no brakes :laff:
  15. So a 4k with a 3kbp head will have the head with the o-ring seals? But the valve springs from the 4k head? Sorry, I'm just starting to learn about porting etc!
  16. Haha yes that may be so, but I don't want to have to watch in horror!! I heard somewhere that the Japanese never let the cars on their roads get old, apparently they crush them when they get to a certain age to make room for more cars.. Imagine how many ke1Xs etc I don't see how anything before the ke55 can be considered bland.. But anyway!
  17. Sounds like it may be a good challenge, but why a 25! I'm thinking a similar situation to the Morris(?) Mariner is dawning. Remember when the Mariner fan club society or something complained, so BBC got a fully overrated one and dropped a piano on it!! HAHA classic, but I hope they don't start crushing rollas :P
  18. Thanks phatke30, but can you elaborate? How can I tell it's a 4k setup after removing the oil cap?
  19. At least it's not a holden v6....
  20. It's just, I'm looking at a car that HAS this already done. Outside the house the car was at there was a sign saying "Machinist" so i'm guessing it would be properly done. It's the only thing I'm worried about in the whole car. Plus I'd rather a wagon (ke26) rather than the coupe/sedan, but beggers can't always be chosers! haha
  21. So if you're not thrashing the car, it should hold up fine? No real dramas?
  22. So more power from higher compression, but most likely worn and outdated? What if it's a reconditioned cylinder head? And yay headjobs!
  23. I've done a search, but I can't find an answer for why. FAQ says they're not actually that good, but why do people do it then? Is there power gain? Surely a 3k head wouldn't be stronger? Any info or links much appreciated! cheers, toby
  24. Good to see you've stuck to toyota roots
  25. Firstly, you are writing "too" where its meant to be "to" and it's really bugging me :lol: I wouldn't think a SR20 would cost 30g to install at a shop.. Why don't you turbo (or supercharge depending on the laws of power to weight) a 5k, or get a 4age and turbo it? Even tuning a na 4age to its wits end might be good enough for you!
