Spent the last 2 days on it.

Hard parking is serious business.

So I took some time off from the car as it was becoming a bit of a chore. But I’m now stuck back into it. The brakes are done, all new lines, rebuilt master, etc. just need to be bled. The interior is coming along. Flocked the dash, it didn’t turn out that great because I used a fast acting glue and when I went to re apply it pulled a lot of old flock off and made it fuzzy. I’ll re do it one day after nationals. Just getting into cutting the rear guards and putting the flares on for good. The flasher relay has had water damage or a capacitor has leaked so I need to put a new one in. The car now runs off its own petrol tank and new pump. Heaps of little things have been done. Koni adjustable front and rear etc

I decided against the flares after I posted the other photo. But then off a whim I fitted them again, and I love it. Started fixing the dash. Filled the large gaps with expanding foam and put pc clear epoxy over the top, pc clear is a shatter proof and moveable epoxy. Have some nylon flock on it’s way from the US. Couldn’t find nylon flock anywhere in aus.

Been doing things here and there on the car. new carpet, seat covers, new rear side window rubbers, just an all round cleanup... There's a lot to do haha. I've been inspecting most parts on the car and they all seem to be alright, even pulling the tank out showed no rust and looked brand new inside. Thanks to vince i got a lovell rear swaybar, koni adjustable front and rear shocks, 8kg front springs and a few other things.Brakes are almost done. Fabbed up the 240 4 pots to fit on the front. Ordering 6 lines and a master cyl rebuild kit from cvi this weekend. Front rotors are now vented 263x22, and picking up some 850 rear calipers to finish off the brakes.I've been putting off tackling the dash and wiring, but looks like were at that point already. Made my own wheels from some 17x7 cougars.

I thought i'd make a build thread on here about the car I've been building since selling the stagea. Most of this has been copied and pasted from another site. With some help from Jack and Tim, we were able to save this 142 from the crusher. It's a 1974 142 Delux, with a b20b and m40 with strombergs. Looks to be an ex rally car that entered the dutton rally in 1995. The engine is solid with 125psi across the 4. Starts straight up and drives great. The car looks to be run into a ditch and then parked up for the 20+ yrs. All calipers were seized, so I'm doing a vented 240 front conversion, new master cyl and new lines etc. Currently putting in some new insulation and carpets inside, you can see the interior is pretty far gone, but I'm sure we will figure something out, if anyone has a new dash pad or a dash mat please let me know. Or even putting in a different dash, Let me know. Not 100% sure on where i want the build to go, I'm sure this will be more evident as time goes on. It will be low, wide, and some sort of a restomod.

have you pulled it apart and cleaned it?
-
you dont need water or oil lines with the 43 and 45 atr's. it just makes it a little easier to install with them. There is a bit of custom involved, as gts said. But nothing serious or hard. And depends how neat you want it... Get some more pipe, a 90deg bend and some random silicone joiners and you should find a nice combo. Get BB If you want better spool. I'm all in at around 3500 with journal with the atr43g3sat. Install process: FYI: You need around 60mm studs, not 40mm. Also there are easier ways to do the install than shown below.

What is the deal with extended pintle cap/tips? You'd think it wouldn't make much difference or any at all being port.
-
Cars still driving fine. Gearbox hasn't exploded into a million pieces as of yet. I've got some Sard injectors almost ready to go in, I just need to make another loom and do a little tuning. Then 20+psi. It does 0-100 in 5sec flat according to my logs, which isn't too bad for standard stall.
-
Thought I should post my findings. Changed the TPS, it was just a coincidence mine was wearing at the same time. It was my transient throttle turning on and off and not having the correct settings. It was injecting a lot of fuel and the o2 was trying to combat it. Causing an oscillation in the afr. All fixed now.
-
Did you find a resolution to this? @AngryRB
-
machines down? or workers? Usually a lack in workmanship is due to stock which is metal, so no. Qualified workers who know what they're doing and care about, yes. Yes the mani looks great, but thats all it will ever do if you cant fit fittings onto it.......................... Disgusting.
-
Is that the oil feed line? how are you meant to get a fitting onto there? They're some tight bends.. Send it back. Tell them to get their shit together if they want to stay in business...

sounds like boost cut to me, going off the info we have haha. Put the vac line from the actuator to the intercooler and see what happens. -
