Nah, I got them from "the tire factory'

 

can't do much more just yet. Gotta save some more cash. Spent about $1700 today.. :y:

Next will be to lower it a few inches and get the suspension a bit harder :hmm:

A nice clean example of what a rolla should be - nice to see it found a good home

 

Nice work bringing her up to scratch :yes:

Too damm bloody cold today :lolcry: , I wanted to paint my brake drums and calapirs red today. I don't have a garage so i will be outside in the cold wind, F*** THAT!!

[JiP]

WoW, thats looking great. Love the wheels and great job on the spare wheel cover. I had the same idea for my cars but need to find time to do it.

 

:lolcry:

I have a question, I have a 1.6l carb engine. Need more power but don't want to spend too much money. Could i get the engine pulled out and recond with new cam, webber and other stuff or put a twin cam in. Buget is about $2500

[JiP]

I'm pretty sure you can. As far as I know you can bolt in pretty much any A series engine into its place.

Awesome work man! Few little mods go a long way with these cars. Should be easy as to come by some rear twinky disks and a stocko strut top bar. Ae102 disks and calipers bolt right on too. As far as springs/struts go theres usually some around in forum classifieds. Great to see this car develop :rocknroll:

 

Oh and if you haven't yet, putting in fresh plugs and oil makes a great difference.

I changed the oil about 2 weeks ago. It was like thick black sludge :rocknroll:

Ran a bit smoother after that but i never really got to compare how it really went coz i've only driven the car about 4 times now. Took it for a long drive up to bonnie doon last weekend (about 2.5hours each way). Taking it for a long drive this sunday for the lilydale cruise up to Noogee. Should blow out some more cobwebs out of the carby :jamie:

 

Thanks for the advice on the disks.. :P

Something else that works is carby cleaner :rocknroll: blew loads of stuff out of mine and it ran better for it.
