Ke20 :>

need a new rear bumper as i have a ding in it. that and it looks like there was once a tow bar. ignore the boot rubber, theres a fresh one in the shed i need to put on.

 

boss monoblock amp is surprisingly good. got a jbl 12inch in ported box that will sit in there.

 

 

rear bumper had a ding when I got it originally if thats what you're talking about? A cyclist ran up the backside, dented rear bumper, small dent on boot and roof lol

 

and yes it had a towbar which I still have in the shed if you want it

 

still got the same boot rubber I gave you with the car?

 

same sussy as mitchs though a short stroke rear shock will be used to it wont bottom out, i refuse to drive more then 1 person any way, hate having backseaters.

 

Yeah cool, if you don't mind forking out the extra cash (around $300) go for reset leaves. Handles alot better and reduces axle-tramp.

 

Cheers, Ben.

nick ive got a rear bumper laying around if you want?

[nickyboy]

hmm ok well, after driving the car fine for the last week or so, the only issue i really had was it would turn over but not fire, after about a minute of trying it would fire up though. well today when i went to start it i got nothing...

 

it slowly cranked over, but sounded really bad. then it just stopped. all electricals work, all fuses are fine. but the starter motor wont make a sound.

 

now before this happened if i used a test lamp and had it on the + side of the coil it gave a very dull light. but now it gives a bright one just like if i put it on the + side of the battery. now am i in need of a new starter? is it not drawing any power at all? the exhaust is getting done on wednesday so i need to get this old girl moving.

check all your earth wires.

 

i think the ballist resistor/coil is cooked, the ballast surpose to drop the voltage to the coil (9v instead of 13v).

[nickyboy]

would the solenoid on the starter motor be done? i know it would prob be getting heaps hot because i have a air leak at the zorst flange right above it, which is getting fixed wednesday.

[nickyboy]

exhaust is now all fixed along with the starter motor. had to get a new pipe put in along with a new stud bolt. car sounds sick. its basically 1.5 or 1 an 3/4 inch pipe all they way off the manifold to a single muffler that was on the car when i got it. its nice and quiet until about 3000rpm and you get this deepish growl. i'll get some pics up of it, very happy with how it turned out.

I'm sorry what were you saying? I was distracted by a fine looking Datto 1000. :P

[nickyboy]

haha, thats my mates, freshest lil dat!

[smeetsy1]

Nick, did he buy that off of glynburn road? If it's the same one, i spoke to the dad (truck driver) but it was pretty pricey!

 

Anyway, we are closer to a ke20 cruise.

[zach.]

is that Olsens Datsun in the background?

[benzo]

Good news with the 20, glad she's all good again.

 

Loving the Datsun 1000 too. I've seen twice in my area, a minta white 1000 wagon driven by an old fella. So so want it haha

[nickyboy]

is that Olsens Datsun in the background?

Hey Nick, I'm really happy for you and Ima let you finish, but keep an eye out for a KE11 parking across the road from yours very shortly :party: :D

[benzo]

A KE11??? Luke?

 

Nick, I have a minty KE20 mirror if you want it? The black mirror is buggin me haha

 

Smeets if you are talking about the same pale blue Datsun I'm thinking was for sale on Glynburn rd, that was a 1200. no where near as cool, and considering you said it was pricey it didn't look that clean.

 

Cheers, Ben.
