  1. lol...say hi to your mum for me.....
  2. hey thanks for the pics....yeah was a good score...lets not forget the 100hours plus of elbow grease i had to put into to get it in the shape its in...
  3. talk about increased track
  4. not even...standard headbolts will suffice as long as threads are tapped clean and correct (not OEM) torque is applied and retorqued after 1000kms or so.....its around 75ft/lb instead of factory spec'd 55 ft/lb iirc... the original design was based around an asbestos HG...new laws disallowed this at the last minute toyota had to change their gasket design to not contain asbestos....unfortunately this meant the torque specs should of changed but with no time for RnD on the new gasket it didnt happen...so the average lifespan is about 100,000kms.....OEM Headgaskets have been redesigned a few times to help solve the problem but (some) aftermarket gaskets have of course copied their design by now so most quality branded ones will work fine.....The real issue is in the torque specs... and that concludes todays lesson on ye olde 7mge boys and girls... its funny coz its true
  5. *results do vary*
  6. this advice really should come with a disclaimer...*results may vary*
  7. Pretty sure your car would spontaneously Combust if you mixed them
  8. some cars with high compression rates can run it ok., I know guys in USA have tested it in Hondas and it runs good and pulls harder faster than petrol..... that said Its still not a very good idea but if it were an emergency you can get away with it
  9. read me http://www.unitedpetroleum.com.au/united/fuel/unleaded-e10 do a little homework ,...e10 is 95 octane...i dont know why the misconception I hear so often, I guess because its cheap eveyone thinks its low octane...Its 95 octane at cheaper cost....and yes it should be fine to run...run it in my 04 honda all the time...may get 50kms less a tank but at least i know my injectors are clean...
  10. as long as its not too windy yeah
  11. probably needs more sanding/finishing... this is acrylic...just doesn't come out of the gun glassy like 2paK
  12. you dont buy wallets silly...you get wimminz to buy them for you....duh...!!...
  13. Anything that can support a car, and often a thick chunk of ironbatk or redgum is going to be alot more stable than a made In china pos jackstand....do not be fooled into believing you are safe just because you bought jackstands,get the right jackstands.. As for wheels...do not support the whole weight of the car on them.no...but if you have a car on a jack and no stands available...At least throw the wheels or something under the car to prevent it falling on your head.. If a car falls on your chest you will die a slow painful death...all the air will be squeezed from your Lungs and you will be struggling to breathe so you can yell for help, but it will be impossible...you will slowly suffocate and it will be a miracle if you survive...so put whatever you can under that car to stop it...A thick block of wood will save you, A wheel will save you, a few telephone books could save you...bricks will crack and probably not save you..never use bricks ! Use common sense, Remember a car weighs between 1-2 tonnes and dont give it room to gain momentum...buy a good jack..that crappy emergency jack that's in your boot is just that, an emergency jack they dont last very long when used regularly....
  14. So much want.
  15. T67 will bolt up.to your tdo6 housing and provide the extra power
  16. Kando sell.brand new ones for 150$.... They are .73 but those housing have made big power...like 400kw plus...Still don think your housing is the issue but would be good to see someone try these housings on a GT turbo.... I'll find u a link...
  17. 600 to Melbourne or Albury? Coz its gumna cost you 150+ in fuel to get to Albury and back to pick it up...plus the covernote to drive it..so that's over 200...plus 350...getting damn near 600 anyway...
  18. Overnight should be fine if you applied it correctly..
  19. Only way your gunna do it cheap is to midnight run it...
  20. 24 hr trailer hire..120$. 24 hour car hire..120$. Fuel 2 tanks maybe 3..200$...so for 450-500 you have it at your door....would be a f**kload easier to put it on a truck..might even be cheaper
  21. Lol...of course
