Tinyest of updates from me

The 31 was off the road while i repaired a bit of rust (not 100% done because i couldn't get my hands on a mig)

Had to get some new rear tyres so was wearing stockies for a little bit

haha, for lolz (got a few paint pens on ebay, got bored after doing the tyre writing on 1 tyre so started attacking the engine bay)

also, out of picture is the "flux capacitor"

my housemate also painted the inside of the front mudflap fluro orange :glare:

im thinking the angle grinder might make an appearance sometime, but its already a pretty dodgy car (mainly dying gearbox and super worn bushes)

WTF is that on your gearbox :):D ? Is that a "pipster ockey clutch special" or am I seeing things here....

Haha, yep

Otherwise the clutch fork comes off the pivot ball and the clutch slave goes on an angle and the pedal gets heavy sometimes

Guess the guy that did the clutch for me f**ked something up,

meh, it works I guess

Pretty dodgy tho

yeam mine has the hectic black guards, and a ful sik HKS exhaust which seems to neither add power nor change the noise, just looks different.

Yours has been lowered a fair bit too I think, looks good.

Keeping the Stag as my weekender: but just put a deposit on a Toyota 86: due in December at this stage... :)

december really?? friend of mine has been on toyotas back about it. took one for a test drive on monday (which was an auto because the other person who booked in a test drive wanted auto......lame) and they told him 12 months wait time......seems a bit silly

this is pretty long gone now, but was fun while i had it

    • 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
    • Mine is all -12, I’m running a dry sump in a billet block though
