Yawn... the usual NSW SAU rabble suspects contributing with unproductive opinions again. To be clear, nobody cares that you individually care or not. How did you lot escape from the zoo?

To those that are interested in seeing people that are artists and create one off bodykits for show winning cars ;-) Cyber are back, and I for one am pretty excited about their revival :-) The old days of AutoSalon was a golden time for our scene!

Geez; always with the serious.

To be fair; you made no attempt to clarify your interest in Cyber prior to the "unproductive opinions", so what do you expect?

"Show winning" is entirely subjective when you're referring to Auto Salon in the nineties; even back then, that stuff was bloody gaudy and awful.

The guys building those "show cars" were experts at putting lipstick on a pig.

Saying nothing of the designers; they were producing a product, and plenty of people bought it.

Not sure it's art per se; but it takes talent, no doubt.

Frankly never bought into adding tonnes of non functional fibreglass to any car; but again, I've only just escaped from the zoo...

    • Yes, me too!!!!  I need to find a something that has all the abbreviations for what these cars have LOL
    • Dang.....  that is some good info.  Thank you.    Yes, I plan to do some troubleshooting before I actually just throw parts at it.  I was doing some investigating on parts, just to get a head start, if wiring and stuff all looked good.
    • No worries, now that I'm closer to 70yo than not, this sort of stuff will one day be 'lost knowledge'... and even now, I wonder just how many folks out there have the Kent-Moore J34291 shim setting tool set to set end clearances rebuilding these...but right the now, there's less and less hard parts available, and you'll be headed to the wreckers to buy a donor box if it's worn out...(or pay a shop to do exactly the same thing). In a way, it's fortunate the 4-speed was so popular, because there's still heaps of consumables (banners kits, bearings & plates etc) around ~ these early 5-speeds weren't exactly that prevalent, so there's not quite as much about for them... but it's a race between perceived demand for these parts, versus how much they fetch at the shredder for recycling purposes...
    • I hope one day I can do it like you. Your engine looks great.
    • If there's nothing else I can do I'll probably do something like that Someone on the internet said that ca20s and ca18 engine blocks are the same and that you can use a ca20 engine block and put ca18det parts to make a ca20det Do you think this is possible or will it damage the engine?
