hehe, ive since found 6 jellybean mags... 2 of em are super fat, theyve got like 220s on em!! tyres arent allowed to stick out past the guard are they?? i think they look stupid when they do anyway but i work with what ive got! what would 6 jelly bean mags be worth? the 2 super fat ones have 5 "beans" and the other 4 have 6 "beans" and 1 of them is a size between the two fat ones and the other three? I'm guessing i have 3 6 inch rims, 1 7 inch rim and 2 8 inch rims?? any expressions of interest in em?? and i swapped the pulsar with the 15's for a GA galant... so that sorta explains why ive lost interest in the rolla for the time being when i can put a 2.6 in the galant for $100 :sob: (and the jellybeans came with the galant but theyre 4x100 so they only fit the rolla (galants 4x114.3)) whats a good profile to run on 14's thats not too exspensive?? i have a set of 14" scorpion alloys lying around just waiting for rubber.. cheers, rob

donald gorange!!! that was the one recomended to me, i just couldnt remember the name, thanks man!!

hmm.. the hi and lo beams work fine.. it's just the blue light on the dashboard that comes on when hi beams are on.. it's flicks on for a split second sometimes... cheers, rob

any chance theyll fit in a ke20? are the engine mounts different for a ke30 and ke20 or just the crossmember? i'd be pretty interested...

the pcd of the rims is a moot point seeing as i can use either the early (4x100) hubs or the later (4x114.3).. what i WAS asking was what profile tyres would i need to put 15"s on a ke20 i know now they wont fit because of the offset (not the pcd) but if i find a set that do fit... thanks for mocking me anyway though cheers, rob

hey guys, i just bought a rocket car, and I'm kinda a dumbass when it comes to rocket cars but what are some easy mods i could do to it to make it go faster? and I'm on my p's so it has to stay legal cheers, rob

whats the offset of n13 rims or what IS "offset"??

yea, I'm rockin the 626 stockies at the moment, i love the chrome rings! i just figured they'd either be 4x100 (not likely?) or 4x114.3 (more likely?) and ive got parts for my ke70 front brake conversion on the way... offset would be a bitch i suppose... fwd rims on a rwd are a definite no go then??

older people (parents or relatives mostly) who think that because theyve had a liscence for the last 30 years they can drive better than everybody else even though they keep telling us how "back in their day they went down to the cop shop when they were 15 and if they coud park the coppers car between 2 gate posts then they got their liscence" or some other shit like that despite the fact that the traffic laws have changed heaps and theres no way they could pass an L or P test these days... that and that stupid push-pull steering you have to do on your p test... and indicating out of roundabouts...

anyone here running 15" rims on a rolla? i bought an n13 pulsar with 15" rims and rooted rubber.. just wondering what profile i'd need to fit under the guards... would tubbing be mandatory? i don't really want super low profile tyres cos I'm cheap, i think they have 185/50 r15's on em now... would they fit? (i have early hubs for now so i can't try yet otherwise i would) and anyone know a rough price per tyre??? cheers, rob p.s. would the offset screw me?? or would it just stick out of the guards heaps??

also when i pulled into the servo today, some dickhead in a hilux was backing out of his bowser, nearly hitting me, then cutting me off into the bowser i was pulling into and giving me a dirty look? all because he wanted diesel and pulled into the wrong one to start with.. and people going 70 down the highway in a rusty magna and then accelerating when you try to pass them and they see oncoming traffic.. when your driving a 1.6l truck with f@$k all pickup, then honking you when you pull back in in front of them... i was so pissed off, and i figured my bullbar is in front of your plastic bumper (only thing hiace is good for) so move the f*ck over c*nt and i sat on my horn as i tried to run the bastard off the road!!!! don't be suprised if i ever get done for vehicular manslaughter...

people (my mum ( no i don't live with my parents, theyre my landlords though (NOT my roommates))) leaving 4 bessie blocks in my driveway (no i didnt ask for/want them) so that night when its pitch black i back over em in my n13 pulsar i just bought 3 days ago now :dance:

on my 626 it had a water choke carby with the housing taken of which leaves a little rod sticking out to use as a choke, or you have to tie it open because its springed to close. i didnt see any filters in the pics, i though i might try to save you rooting your motor cheers, rob

you can get supercheap/repco to order you in the rectangular air filters for these, they come in two heights, the covers have different clips for the different heights, i went to the redline webber website and they sent me a free catalog, although that was a few years ago and it took about 3 weeks, i can get you the part numbers for the filters if you want, just go to the parts desk and ask to have a quick look at the redline catalog (they usually haveone, sometimes they look at you a bit funny... I'm pretty sure theres a manual choke kit in there too. it also has baseline jetting figures for some engines... havent looked at it for k stuff yet... cheers, rob p.s. i MIGHT have an old filter assembly you can have for $10 bucks, i think my parents might have thrown it out though cos i left it in their garage (they threw out my black scorpion bush basher on me... bastards)

yep should leave enough thread to set a good clearance, according to the faq, i havent done it yet.

^^^^^^^ in the words of borat... very nice, i like!!! did you get that done or did it come like that?? i just bought a two tone astra/pulsar very similar to that but with a red pinstripe... and its white on grey...

hey, if it helps I'm pretty sure its a 34 adf carb (or something like that) off a xf falcon. should be easy enough to get jets for, and i think theyre pretty sought after for peoples utes and that cos webber don't make em anymore. rob

it'd be a straight swap, as long as you don't mind not getting an engineers certificate for an extra 300cc's... I'm not planning to :) cheers, rob p.s. i doubt any copper is gonna defect your suzuki for having a 5k in it

I reckon, tell me about it. just wish they wouldn't do so much damage :) ive had full 10 litre jerries go missing outta my shed. I'm not really in hobart, I'm like 30 kays out.. new norfolk sucks :) oh yea, ive also had a postie bike stolen... I'm saving up stainless at the moment, its only 2.35 a kilo but ill just wait till i have like 400 kilos and load up the truck.... you got any sinks you don't want?? cheers, rob

why not use a 5 or 7k and put the 4k sticker on the rocker cover :)

cheers, ill get the black tape out tomorrow :) rob

my windscreen wipers stopped working today :) anyone know what might be wrong? also the blue highbeam light on the dash sometimes flicks on for a second but never stays on.. the gear selector light didnt come on either but there was enough current to switch a relay so i just did that instead... anyone have a ke20 wiring diagram so i know how to wire a relay onto the highbeam light thing and fix the wipers?? is more stuff gonna keep stuffing up? is my cars wiring rooted??? cheers, rob

Hey, just thought id add up before and after shots of my new (old) bonnet before: after: opinions anyone?? i wanna 2-tone the sides too... (ignore the broken window) cheers, rob p.s. should the front apron be black too??

Hehehe, yea.. i used to be an apprentice baker but i quit and got the workplace ombudsman to make my boss give me $1500 bucks cos he was underpaying me so i went on a 4 month holiday... i couldnt really afford a better suburb :) i'd love to go back real soon.. i want to get an old rwd chrysler lancer hatchback/coupe from u-pull it in lonsdale, anyone want a room mate??? and a/another ke20 parked in the driveway?? hehe, i met some people who for some reason called the jetty at christies beach "the nunanjetty" (I'm not sure of spelling) we don't really have alot of... native australians... in tassie (abbos sounded a bit rascist) cheers, rob
