-
been working all weekend on the rolla after i got home from work on sat. drilled the holes in the wall for the bat cables, useing dis tool, ran the cable down to the boot, and jointed it all up in the bay. also remounted the coil and have almost finished re running, making the wiring loom. also cut out the new shifter hole so i can now shift gears again SUS DE POWER HOUSE
-
made up and welded in the bat tray, so as soon as i get back from work on sat i will get back into it, and get the welds smoothed back and paint it:D and then a pic of the new fuel pressure reg:D
-
thanks bud it coming along nice at the moment. finished the sill tonight, just to to clean it up paint it and the I'm on the the last of it, the bat tray ;)
-
yeah some times it can be a pain, but its for de rolla...so its worth it all. got a bit more done, will have the sill done in 2 days time, then its just the bat tray:) what i pain dis was to make, there was so many shapes to make. as you can see ive only just cut and shaped it ruff, but will have that peace done and weleded tomorrow nite. and look at the rolla i want to drive it so much.
-
welded in some other patches today, had to do some major shaping to get it all right, as I'm goin for the NO BOG aprotche. had to make a crazzy bend in one of the spots, made it on the dolly with a panel hammer and although ya can't really see it in the pic it took me 2 HRs to make it right and fit.
-
got my jets for the turbs setup, don't know why i got a pic but yeah!! also sused out water/methanol injection today also, and been looking at new cams. then welded in some new stell tonight, and thats about it.
-
sounds good bud, I'm putting a 302W in a KE26 hope it will be good, ya will have to get some pic up
-
yeah i did mate, its not that hard just cheap playing around and ya get the hang of it, mig or a tig is the go, mig is a lil easyer though :P then ya just got to take your time with panels and that, can only tack weld stuff, can't just get in there and weld it in one go :D as it will gte so much heat and warp the panels or burn hole all over the place. went on a cruise up around the back of melb today with my bro so didnt do alot on the rolla....... AGAiN!!!!! but i did still do a lil work, more or less found more rust, found some in the left guard, so i started to fix up a nother one ive got hear, just got to nock some lil dints out of it, strip it back and paint it. then there was a lil bit in the right guard so i cut that out and luckly it has only gone through one fold no both so will come up good as. then cut the rust out of the sill almost, just tryiing to work out how i will go about making the front half of it as there are some folds in there that will be hard to make. also found that some one has took to the rolla with in axe or something on top of one of the guard??? why i have know idea theres nothing hear but good steel!!! WHY I ASK????
-
well almost got the tunnel done, just got to cut out the new gear shifter hole. i welded it on both sides and filed back the side in the cab so know it is smooth as (only took me 2HR HAHA) as i didnt want to use the flap disc and spray grinding dust every were :) AND THEN I FOUND DIS but not to worry peps, ive got it covered, will cut it all out, weld in new steel, rust kill and clean it up, and ya will not even know that ive done any thing there, will take a bit as I'm lookin at using no bog :D well that was it for today, i sleep in and that didnt help, then some peps were over getting stuff of me so that slowed things down also and then i was looking at the what is needed to get the 302W into the rolla :P
-
yeah i havent seen one with out rust there yet :) and ill most defantly have a vid up when its back together and running a turbs setup if it all works :) did some more work tonight, cut out the gearbox hole in the tunnel a bit so i can make a new one, that it done better than the peps that did it before i got a rolla. then found some rust in the front of the sill i will be cuting out and fixing up, slack peps just boged over the top if it <_< . it look worse in the pic than it really is also :o and just a pic off it up on the stands. well thats was aabout it not really a lot of work done, as i was f@$ked after work and pretty much sleeep after i got home, then only had a lil bit of time to work on
-
HAH not a nother DANIEL :) I'm dnaiel to if ya didnt know :) well ive cut out the bat tray pretty much, striped back all the wiring that will not be nedded, and pulled the whole front end off the car, to fix some rust and some bog scabs and might repaint it at the same time? think i might pull off the old ALT reg system and run a internal reg ALT for less wiring in the engine bay? also got may rising rate fuel reg today, looks like it wil work.
-
well been a lil bizzy out looking at more cars to get and goin to a car meet, but i did get to do a bit off work tonight. pulled out the seats and carpet put new seals in my gear box and seal it all up so no more leaks i hope. turbo is mounted on and new hose is joning it all up. cut out a lil bit of the bat tray. got my new clutch, aslo ya can see its a lil dif, pretty much every thing it tuffer on it, making it heavier. also look at the slipin ness that the other new clutch was doing, she just could take it HAHA. my turbo jets for the carby will be hear at the end of the week, also the rising rate fuel reg will be too i hope?
-
getting my clutch today i hope? payed for my fuel reg and sould have that soon. also taking the rolla off the road for the week, pulled out the motor today. the list for the week: - fix water pump and leak on motor (teach me for useing old stuff) - pull out interior, clean up, run bat cables to boot, change wiring in bay to sute - clean up wiring in in bay. - remake wiring for stezza to bat in boot. - cut off old bat mount in engine bay, and cut out the rust and fix up. - cut off old coil mount and put out of the way. think thats it for the week, might have it done? might not? we will see. so turbs will not be running till next week some time.
-
yeah i couldnt really clock the turbo all that much as it was goin to point up to high and not fit the bonnet all that well or it was goin to point at the zorst manifold :( but yeah well will just have to see how it all goes? ive never heard of that happining before? can alway mod it after i guess? and yeah ill get some pic when its done, I'm off to get more parts motor tomorrow :) so will strip the thing down on weekend, and maybe even get it back together next weekend?
-
yeah it does look a lil like 13b stuff HAHA a 13b would be good :) and yes its a CD175 well moded a T28 8psi gate to fit onto my housing, came up or, just had to cut it up a lil and weld some threaded bar on it so i can fix it to the housing, painted it blue to satrt with as it look a bit shitty not painted with all the wld and file marks on it, but then it turned out to look shit blue i thought, so went to black LOL might even change it later to :( also made a bent to go from the carby to the pod, but desided to go a lil bigger in size (2 1/4) pipe, so went to South Geelong Zorst and got a 180 bend, oh and also got a carby rebuid kit for it, just got to get some bigger jets now so i can see what works best? going to get more parts tomorrow also :P
-
well made the Y peace so tacked it in and all the pipes were now joined :) so cut out a peace above the rocker cover so i could get the two pipw on and off the motor, then welded it all up with the oxy, was a lil rusty on the oxy welding as ive not done a lot of it but i think it came up ok never the less. well be workin on it more today so might have a lot more stuff done.
-
was workin on the motor till 12 last night, was f@$ked buy the end !!! finidhed all the piping pretty much just some lil things to do now. well made a flange so the pipes could joim to the single weber manifold, made a stencil first, then maked that out on some stell plate, drilled the holes, and cut out the bigger ones with a hole saw, don't think the hole saw was up to cutting steel that thick as it tolk for ever to get through. then had to make the bends up to the top of the rocker cover to get to the rest of the pipe, i just used some 180's the cut the bottom down so the bent would be closer to the manifold. then came time for one of the harder parts, making the Y peace !!! pretty much spent about 2 or more houre making it, just cut the basic angles then just keep grinding it down till it worked. it can up shit hot though i thought.
-
well i got some 2'' 180 mandrel bend piping from south geelong exhuasts on thursday so i could start to plum up the turbos to the inlet, all ive done is cut the pipe till its got to the right angles and lengths. ive tacked it together with the mig and left a lil bit of a gap so when i weld it up with the oxy it will fold together really well and will be really flat on top and look very neat :jamie: only half way though for now, just workin out how to make a V or a Y peace to run it into the single weber manifold ;) heres the pictures
-
look in my members ride section, ive got a 3t in my ke20, same black as 2t and 2tg
-
yeah i have/am running a CD 157 strongburg worked really well, and i know of a lot of cars that have been running the CD's and there workin fine, one was even a turbo holden 202 in a LJ
-
yeah o can get some pics soon, and was running mazda 323 13'' rims on the front, as i had to different size tyre on the mags, so i could see what worked better.
-
yes it will be on the road and nar it will hold together mate, but will have some other bracing in it to, and the tunnel will be made from thicker stell than normal
-

-
