While I know and appreciate this is a Whoretown thread, please keep the racial slurs to a minimum. I know its all in good fun and I hate to be a kill joy but if I was an NZ'er and came to these forums to see threads like these, I wouldn't hang around.

I'm the sole NZer in this thread, and hardly feel mocked lol. We used to watch Ignition DVDs from Oz and spend half the time cracking up, the accent and culture thing works both ways.

In saying that, it doesn't exactly make it feel very inviting providing NZers with their own area and then making it a take the piss out of NZ area seeing the actual whoretown thread says Unnzud. A bit of jibe here and there, but I've never heard a NZer called NZ "Unzud" so thats clearly gotta be fixed :blush:

I'm sure this section will grow with the amount of skylines and imports you have over there. We're jealous of your more relaxed import rules and stuff. So many models you guys get and we don't.

So any of you guys go to the beech much?

Beeched ais bru.... :blush:

Yeah bro, live right by the beach! We often like to go down and eat fish and chips, its sweet :D

The import laws here are really tightening up unfortunately, though that was after the Japanese cars started getting boring... so we got flooded with all the cool 80s and 90s ones.

2x from the north..

Random fact Re Sheep,

7x Sheep per person in NZ, we all know that, hence the awesome jokes that never change.

14x Sheep per person in AUS....

4,000,000 people in NZ

21,500,000 people in Australia.

You do the math :O

No one likes a liar...

China actually has the greatest number of sheep in terms of number of livestock (See top ten list in Domestic sheep). While New Zealand rates number 2 on the list of total quantity of "indigenous sheep meat" produced, it has the highest number of sheep per-capita (outside of the Falkland Islands). Simon McCorkindale of Christchurch, New Zealand holds the current Guinness World Record for number of sheep owned by one man (384143) and was named Royal ovis Aires Breed Board of Indigenous Territories (RABBIT) breeder for 12 consecutive years.[2]

Ok fine i tried :rant:

I can google too..

"While New Zealand rates number 2 on the list of total quantity of "indigenous sheep meat" produced," following only Australia :P

Population of sheep in AU 2005, 102.7 million

Populatioin of sheep in NZ 2005 39,9 million

f**k we both have a sheep loat of sheep. lol

    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD? 
    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
