  1. Theres so many DR30's on there...... I could happily spend a hundred grand on a couple of containers of DR's
  2. I have to paint mine grey like that.... It makes my bar look sweet
  3. Adrian did you get my pm last week? Cash ready and waiting
  4. R31 GTS-T's... lol No DR30's on that list... Not that it matters to me. 924 is a 4 cylinder. It also doesnt list 356's or 912
  5. Someone buy it then take mouldings of the guards!
  6. A pair of turbos....... How much bloody torque do you want!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats going to change the direction of the earths rotation when you floor it!
  7. Any progress on yours Peter?
  8. Sex.... Pure sex
  9. That reminds me.... I still want to paint my coupe like Fury's '86 ATCC DR30
  10. Hmmmm the guy I bought my car from had no idea then. Any pics of the Alto for me?
  11. Hmmm, took the DR out of the garage and swapped the wheels off it so its sitting on the 16's and had a look under the back. I couldnt really see what was bent, it might be the arm where the axle goes through, it looks a little bit like the arm is bent in where it meedts the hub. Though it could also be where the arm mounts off the chassis... I guess I'll need to go and get all the MR30 hatch arms and then compare everything
  12. So what brakes are they, and what struts? (I'll assume S13 coilovers) Does it still use the R30 ball joints? Mine are near replacing time but I've heard they are hellishly expensive to get
  13. 16 inch Rays in return for shoddy Simmons, good deal I still like the look of the early front and the red over black looks better than my white
  14. Hmm... almost happy that Sheridan ended up selling it to you for less than I offered her, I suck at bodywork. The Simmons look good though
  15. L20B drops into a 1200 reasonably easily and probably a 120Y. I've got friends with L series powered 1200's amd they said it was easy
  16. Yeah, I will when I get the car to dads and start pulling it apart. Hopefully the torque-monster stroker Charade will be sold on Friday so I can spend the cash fixing the DR
  17. Road Traffic Act http://www.parliament.sa.gov.au/Catalog/le...s/r/1961.50.htm Road Traffic (Vehicle Standards) Rules http://www.parliament.sa.gov.au/Catalog/le.../r/1999.235.htm Road Traffic (Miscellaneous) Regulations http://www.parliament.sa.gov.au/Catalog/le...1999.236.un.htm About the only legislative stuff I've studied in detail... The stuff I'm meant to do for uni bores me lol I havent had to go in and get the plates fitted to my DR and I first registered it and recieved the letter over a year ago
  18. Keep the L20ET they sound farrrrrrkin' awesome with an exhaust
  19. Nothing... I can't drive the bloody thing. What I did at the same time as hitting a rock with the sump (well... just after it anyway) was driving it on a dirt road (done many times before but previously always on semislicks) on normal tyres, hooked it around a tight left hander with some handbrake at the same speed I'd done before but it slid a tiny bit too far out and smacked the right rear wheel into the bank. This was just after I'd heard something smack under the car on an uneven bit of road, but there was no knocking from the engine, pulled over just down the road, saw there was rocks and shit embedded between the wheel and tyre but didnt notice the wheel was in until I'd gotten it home. Noticed the knocking from the FJ when I pulled over to check the wheel, switched it off, checked under the car for oil leaks, checked the oil, put more in for good measure. No mobile reception, no houses, after midnight on a weekday... SH1T!!!!!! Decided if i could drive it at very low revs a max of a km I could get it to a position that I could probably roll it home, or at least push it as there would be no more uphill bits, so I did that. Knocking got a tiny bit louder for the short time it was running (figured if it was stuffed it would need a rebuild or replacement anyway...) Got home, jacked it up to take the weight off the tyre as I felt it could go flat from an imperfect seal, had felt flattish rolling home, back was swinging a bit but didnt look like it had gone down much. I didnt want to bend the rim of the Watanabe so I stuck an Enkei on the next day, noticed the wheel was sitting in a bit on an angle but thought some might have been from jacking the car up, rolled it up and down the driveway a bit to try and get it to settle but it didnt do terribly much. Then I rolled it into the shed and forgot about the car until I went to get something from the shed the other day. So I've bent something..... just dont know what it is yet Only time I've ever hit anything btw... and I wasnt going quick at all, just like using the momentum of the car to bring the back out a bit on that corner, the dirt road is a bit of a shortcut between two good roads in the hills
  20. How similar are they? I've bent my back right wheel in at the back, its sitting on a diagonal in two planes, havent had a good look at whats bent but aside from the diff, whats different about a hatch IRS rear end?
  21. If you don't sell it and end up parting it out... bags first dibs on the rear end, I've bent something in mine
  22. If you don't sell it and end up parting it out... bags first dibs on the rear end, I've bent something in mine
  23. Sound like what my FJ was doing when I( first got it. Turns out (after much swearing and setting up a compressor to push 10psi into the cooler pipes) that a hose (might have been positive pressure, I guess it couldnt have been vacuum because the engine wasnt running when I found it) under the inlet manifold had come off. It was just in the right spot that you couldnt see it from underneath or above the car and you couldnt really hear where the noise was coming from, but once I put it back on it was fine
  24. In the pics of Pauls PN coupe and Crimmo's HR sedan the coupe boot looks longer, but I havent measured. I wouldnt mind finding out though, I'd like a boot that didnt have holes from where a wing was mounted on it
