casey Posted September 26, 2006 Report Posted September 26, 2006 what ever you do don't wreck a repairable celica just for it or evern a good t-18 even tho there stang ugly get it going well and road worthy well before you start thinking about a conversion, tc engines sound like droning boat engines :( IMO Quote
Taz_Rx Posted September 27, 2006 Report Posted September 27, 2006 it DOESNT REQUIRE taking it over the pits, you just have to take it to a certified inspection station, most mechanical workshops can do them, what are you going to be using the car for over the next few years?? you might even want to leave it unregoed sorry by "pit inspection" I mean a certified inspection station. same thing as having an inspection to register a car normally. :( Quote
tom210 Posted September 29, 2006 Report Posted September 29, 2006 yeah "pits" are certified inspection stations and "transport" is transport in my thesaurus :jamie: Quote
stalker Posted October 3, 2006 Report Posted October 3, 2006 John Your Car Is SOOO HOT!!!, it is like 5million times better than casey's Quote
HEKTIC Posted October 4, 2006 Author Report Posted October 4, 2006 felix don't compare our cars, that way know one gets burned, they both have there good and bad points, but they are both better than MTB bikes Quote
HEKTIC Posted October 12, 2006 Author Report Posted October 12, 2006 Update: Took the rear bumper off and took out drivers side tail light out so that i could have easier access to the parts that need to be fixed, I will be starting to fix the body work on the weekend starting from the rear and slowly making my way to the front. Cheers John Quote
casey Posted October 12, 2006 Report Posted October 12, 2006 good luck with it johnny i got the same bog as you :y: just a hint it dryed way quick so don't f**k about Quote
tom210 Posted October 12, 2006 Report Posted October 12, 2006 maybe if you use less hardner it wont... Just a tip from your local supercheap employee :) Quote
HEKTIC Posted October 13, 2006 Author Report Posted October 13, 2006 haha well the bog came from supercheap and I have used it before i so no ruffly what I'm doing. Quote
HEKTIC Posted October 13, 2006 Author Report Posted October 13, 2006 Dad and i did a little bit of work this afternoon, we got the dolly and the hammer out and fixed up a couple of dents and put some bog on, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out it will need a little more bog but not much so it will have to wait untill i need to fill a bigger area. Bog On Bog Sanded into the right shape just needs some extra on the corner Quote
Des Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 Nice at least you did better than me. Quote
HEKTIC Posted October 15, 2006 Author Report Posted October 15, 2006 Well this weekend i got the rear quarter done and the boot, I'm pretty happy with the results. They will need to be primed soon so that they are sealed from the elements. With painted tail light surround without boot well i still have a long way to go but I'm happy with what ive done so far.

HEKTIC Posted December 16, 2006 Author Report Posted December 16, 2006 cheers mate, i guess i better update this thread. Well the car has seen better days but its slowly getting there. I got a new battery for it today, and for christmas i will be getting some new seats off casey (flat out), beefing the spring count up to 8leafs either side after the new year. Then i will lower it 1-1/4" in the rear and chop the springs around the same in the front. I will then be in the market for a set of 14" rims either bathurst globes or some the same as whats in my signature so if anyone in tassie has some that they want to sell PM ME! I'm also looking for a ta22 or ra23 diff 4.1 or 3.9 doesnt bother me which and also id prefer it to be open centred, once again anyone with such an item PM ME! Then i will paint it and have a new pinstripe made and hopefully it will be looking something like my signature then i will be looking for a 2tg, 3tc or 4age- with twin weber carbs. Picture time: i love primer god damn that looks ugly ;) i still love that primer :) Quote
