i've got a valeo in mine and it's lasted well, been in the car for about 3yrs...and i don't drive like a granny haha. but thinking of putting a new one in shortly, tho it's still going strong.
yeah i usually dont p***y foot when i drive, i dont spin wheels every time i take off but i do give it a harder time than most people, and it does get the odd thrashing off the lights when red p platers in 3 spd ea falcons try line me up :P


Bought it for $89

Used parts off it though, fog switch spare, good dash fascia now on my car as is the gear selector console. and centre console light which can sell on ebay for $30

Spent $16 on paint and painted the scratched gear fascia and dash fascia. So basically still happy on it.

thats ok then, would of looked better on your car though :roll: :P

found today that checking my tyre pressures regularly would be a great fuel saver, fronts were down 5 psi and rears were down by 3, well my original rear, my stocker spare was down by 12 :roll: car looks like shiz on stocker, car goes much better when the tyres are correctly filled. :wink:

also palmed some useless crap off to my brother today for a few dorrors, 50 of em to be exact.
got rid of my sub and amp because im not using them anymore and he recently bought a 90's carby fed toyota rally rolla.
even installed it for him along with some 4 inch speakers i made him buy to replace the 22 year old paper 5 watt s**t in the front, hes happy hooning around making his nuts and bolts come loose with bass, and i filled my tank up so i can get to work for the rest of the week, still have $32 in my bank account.. WINNING :roll:

i have to take a loan out to scratch my a** this week.... have a feeling i was under payed so who wants to swap me a perfectly running automagic e series for an el 5 speed that runs fine, unless you wanna do burnouts :x

oh how i wish i could find the strength to pick it up and crush it up into a cube and put it in my bin
would also swap for a pushbike and helmet, as long as it had front and rear shocks and disc brakes

Doesnt hurt to ask. Up to you.

Whilst asking, show you have a interest and ask them for a full time role/permanent part time etc?

I dont think you understand the s**t fight that is the security industry man, I work under snp's uniform.and rules but am actualy employed "casually" by some one else, no holiday pay, no sick pay, no penalty rates or public holiday rates, 18 bucks an hour flat rate, and if you dont like something or if snp doesnt like you. your sacked.

Just be careful with them, apparently some of them are expensive yet don't give you any opportunities in the mining industry. Just what I've heard, mightn't be true. Best of luck!

well i turned the dizzy back to stock timing and filled the tank with 91 octane no ethanol, car seems to be driving really well, but when you put the foot down hard theres less grunt, but if it saves me money and saves my clutch fully imploding than its fine this way, clutch will be purchased next week, i could afford a standard one this week but i figured it would be a waste of time putting the stock one back in. will be buying exedy hd.

does anyone have any experience with buying a full gasget kit and know a rough price from the top of their head? also should i loook for a rubber sump gasget or is the cork one fine? ive herd mixed results with both gasgets

:?

The sump gasgets pissing oil, the timing cover looks like its leaking a bit, and the head gasgets leaking oil towards the back and I dont think its ever been replaced on this engine

did you have issues with it hitting the bonnet? i think i read somewhere that all 3 inch intakes do as they cross over the bbm, it only hits the material cover

few more slams of the bonnet :lol:

just lifted the head up from one of my many small shed things around my back yard and moved it up into my larger garden shed, man i dont remember it being so heavy when i lifted it off the car by myself!! i could hardly carry the POS 5 metres without putting it back down today, it does still have the manifold attached though, but they arent very heavy :?

anyway im thinking about getting it shaved a little nekk week in preperation for epic full ground up rebuild in 10 days :lol:

Only thing that looks like would hit the bonnet is the rubber tubing on top of the rocker cover. Thats factory though so should be ok.

Make sure the rebuild has a 10k crank included

50k head port job, 30 k cam removed from the 888 supercar, converted to twin cam from a sr20 man im not cutting any corners, going to be 1500 horsepower once its potato chipped with an ebay resistor :shock: mini spool from a vn!!
