mitch4397 Posted August 21, 2008 Author Report Posted August 21, 2008 Not many updates recently due to having no money. however ive found a new income and have recently sold the guzzler aka the calais. just thought id post some pics of my budget modification of 'redwalls', its about as artistic as i get with a paint brush but i think its quite affective. In the coming weeks ill have some engine mods happening. and within the next month or two hope to have replaced some worn struts, interior carpet, new centre console and most importantly remove the lowering blocks and get the leafs reset....(while on that topic can anyone tell me if getting the the leafs reset upsets the level of the drive shaft like the blocks do???) anyhoo, ive also got some plans for the grille and light garnishes but that'll come later down the track :jamie: some pickies : enjoy. Cheers Mitch Quote
benzo Posted August 21, 2008 Report Posted August 21, 2008 (edited) Lookin good Mitch, I believe they're red rims haha not red walls. What you got planned for the engine? and grille and trims? I hate seeing this car how it is now, regret selling it ay. oh wells hopefully I should have at least one sick KE20 out there soon! Cheers, Ben. Edit: Every weekend pretty much one of my mates sms me saying they see my old SIK 020 in town hahaha Edited August 21, 2008 by benzo Quote

mitch4397 Posted September 8, 2008 Author Report Posted September 8, 2008 (edited) Twin Dellorto DHLA40's courtesy of Andrew (Ke_ping_it_real). many thanks. and some replacement struts. Carbies were a %#^%$^$@%T%# to get on. Needed a fair bit of filing in order for the manifold to fit along side the extractors. The four bolts attaching the manifold where the hardest 4 bolts of my life, given the next to nothing space once u get squeeze your hand and ratchet in there. While doing this we dropped a spanner on the alternator and we made sparks :D :wink: and by doing this my ignition switch has packed up :wink: . My car will be towed courtesy of the RAA to 8km within my residence to an auto-electrician:no2: Anyways, when the car is fixed and wants to start ill post some pics/videos of the carbs running (yet to be tuned). :hmm: i miss driving her already... PS. anyone know how to access the bolts easier on the Dellorto manifold other than spanners and ratchets? the area is just ridiculously tight to work in....there must be an easier way..... Cheers Mitchelli. Edited September 8, 2008 by mitch4397 Quote
