OH NO, not in dinga we dont allow full size 2wd trucks here. lol

is that a 350 or 454 ? warning dont do burn outs in it or the diff will fall to the ground, I blew one one rainy night in montana being a hoon (doughnuts) on kmarts wet parking lot ..lol its a weak point, boy did I work on a lot of those trucks in usa.

your in for a shocker on fuel for that pig, I had a V10 4x4 dodge extended cab, and those chevys were worse on fuel then that.

watch the heat, those vapour lock on ethanol fuel and overheat in traffic unless upgraded. , if you need anything my friend bill works for chevy in usa as a master mechanic .20 years now I think

and starters that fail from high temp headers , wrap the headers near the starter for sure.

looks clean for that year/model

350 TBi model, already has the holley upgrade throttle bodies, MSD ignition and a set of aftermarket headers.

Starter has just been done, so has the radiator and air con. It's 89 model running the 99 model front end, all this stuff is soooo cheap to buy from the states

The previous owner has done a couple of skids in it( bit of rubber spray under it) but it still drives all good.

In the process of throwing some fresh bushes into the front and and then head down for the rego swap to SA plates

And the fuel issue is no huge concern, Land barges are sorta my thing, from the Dodge i just sold to the slow and thirsty Stagea that is finally gone. this thing will only get driven 1-2 times a week and for towing the boat and holidays. if it gets that unbearable i'll just throw a 250lt LPG tank in it and run BBQ fuelthumbsup.gif

yep south confeds and yanks up north, I was from the wild west..haha its still legal to walk down the street with a rifle or pistol as long as its not hidden from view. common site during deer season , bunch of pickups, beer, orange vests, elmer fudd fur hats, and 7mm magnum or 30-06 with a better finish then a fancy dining room set has..lol

you know the place, every man, woman, child has at least 10 guns each ???

no no no Stirls, the toilet bowl flows the other way down here :P

down south they have outhouses still..lol

no low flows now in usa..... you have to flush 4 times to get rid of the dung pile a foot high after a night of tacos and tequila shots.. so much for saving water..???

*snip*

so that means i didnt see you parked at the BWS at Plympton this arvo then? :laugh:

Nice truck you've got there, almost tempted to suggest getting a PTO done on the gearbox and a tilt tray instead of the tub :P but you might put me outta business :rofl:

Hey Matty T - Pete & Jenna came round last Friday and picked up the car.

Stayed the night (they were stuffed after a 1300km drive), then drove home early saturday morning!!

So.... Ive got some money. Its a nice feeling, LOL, to not be -600 overdrawn each and every month.

1st thing tomorrow Im "investing" in a 4month gym membership.

footlocker in rundle mall. last pair of size 10s they had. price difference with eastbay isnt too bad once you factor in shipping plus theyre out of the black cements anyway

also orderd my concords a last week.

i could literally spend $20k on sneakers right now. and i would if i was that rich

Sheeeit. And I thought only chicks were that hardcore...

Could always petition your girlfriend for equal shoe rights - whenever she buys a pair she has to buy you a pair

Chicks are smarter than us tho. They'd just say 'gtfo'

:(

-D

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
