Rolla__Boy Posted December 13, 2005 Report Posted December 13, 2005 ok well...as soon as you put the cd player in, it all spirals from there....200kw 4AGZE, new wild paint, massive chrome wheels full sik zorst...So just control yourself :) Quote
Guest Brad Posted December 13, 2005 Report Posted December 13, 2005 lol I'm not going that far, If anything I will build a tough K motor from Jamies FAQ. My 3K is getting pulled to bits shortly as it likes to eat 4 litres of oil in a week :) Brad Quote
Guest Brad Posted December 14, 2005 Report Posted December 14, 2005 Yeah, it blows smoke constant some times I think the motor is on fire :) I'd love to get a 4k/5k and do some work to it, but I need a car every day, and changing the valve guides or whatever is eating oil seems to be the quickest solution to my problem. Also Nick it doesn't drop any oil, it rather eats it. Cheers, Brad Quote
Rolla__Boy Posted December 14, 2005 Author Report Posted December 14, 2005 The quickest way to have it back on the road, would be to buy a 5K and swap engines in 2 hours :) Best thing I have done so far to my car was put the 5K in it Quote
coln72 Posted December 15, 2005 Report Posted December 15, 2005 2hrs - were you being slack........ (helps with all the wiring being connected with plugs and some of the bolts being left out from previous changes :) ) Quote
mikeys toy[RL] Posted December 18, 2005 Report Posted December 18, 2005 valve guides aren't going to eat 4 liters a week...you got issues dude Quote
Corolla_Kid Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 Geez you guys are swift I'd struggle to do one in a day haha. Quote
oli Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 yeah well id struggle to do one in weeks! i = sucky n00b Quote
coln72 Posted December 19, 2005 Report Posted December 19, 2005 Lots of practice Pull 3K Drop in 5K Fire up 5K - shit this is good for $100 Listen to knocks when it warmed up - shit not so good 5K out 3K back in to compete next morning. All in an arvos work :) Quote
Guest Brad Posted December 24, 2005 Report Posted December 24, 2005 (edited) Yeah, I just recently put some Pennezoil Older Engine oil in it, it's thicker than GTX or HPR30, I've driven it for around a week and lost no oil, but if it still does it I might have to source a 5K and drop her in it. Brad EDIT : If anyone knows of a 5K for sale PM me. Edited December 24, 2005 by Brad Quote
