post-14079-1140672931.jpgThere's mine below. It's 1997, fairly factory standard. No money/time to do anything yet.

The list as far as I know is a dark green one that was bought around the same time from Dave Powell's. It's a 1998 and belongs to an older guy who lives just around the corner from me. I've had a chat once, and he's pretty chuffed with his except for the mileage. He managed to get a manual from somewhere in NZ.

There is a silver one up Burnie/Smithton way which is more customised. That owner is a member here, but I can't remember his handle. This might be the one seen in Launnie. There is also a bright yellow one that I have only seen once at a distance.

Mine has a stagea sticker across the front windscreen so people know it's not a volvo. Even when stopped by the police, they gave up and just wrote nissan wagon. It's also for sale if you want it.

That is all I know.

    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
