Your neighbors must love you!

The guy who owns the house next door bought another house and moved out because of my hobby! The exhaust is custom extractors into 2" pipes then join to a single 2.5" with 1 muffler in the centre. It was 94Db before but now it sounds a lot more . . . . Exotic!

Very Cool, this is what the Jap cop emblem looks like. The second one is an award and you can get an idea of what it looks like in 3D.

Lol...i wonder how many older blokes remember what MFP stood for in the 80s. ;D

 

They would be the same folk who would understand why my bike mad mate has the nickname

"Jimmy the Goose"

Just letting you guys know that this Zed is no longer in my possession because of a relationship break down and subsequent personal property dispute. It will take some time to get it back because i am forced to go through the proper legal channels. I know it sucks and you may feel the need to comment but please be aware that this could also be used against me. If anyone does see the car for sale please alert me or if you wish to speak to me please PM me.

 

Cheers

Here's an update for everyone. I have been refining a few areas of the car, simple stuff really like making sure the horn works 100% of the time and throttle bracket. After working on the throttle i had to reset a few thing to make sure it was opening all the way (i don't think it ever was)

After a test drive i made it go bang which turned out to be the Torque Converter, i sheered all the splines off it. With the wider tyres, rebuilt trans, re-jetted carby and reworked engine this thing is making some serious power.

Anyway a new B&M 2000 RPM Stall converter is on the way.

I have known your pain.

More power + more grip = either Diff or Box issues. Had same happen on a car years back took 3 boxes to get one that would last any length of time.

 

Lucinda must be quite the machine these days, she wasn't exactly slow when you took me for run in her about 12 months ago.

 

How long until she is back on the road ?

 

Cheers

Just a matter of days buddy!

What sort of throttle cable do you use Mark? Lexus?

Bluebird, it was what i had hanging around at the time :P
