    BC coilovers

    hey jap metal have you got your BC coil overs welded on yet? did you welded them on yourself? Did they come with some instructions?> if so would you mind sharing them to me? I want to see how they work before getting a set. cheers
  2. I'm a noobie to polishing paint, and I purchased one of those rockwell ones and went to the waxit shop in tullamarine and the guys there gave me a few pointers and recommended a few pads and products to use. I tape up squares on the panels and just worked on them one at a time. The result was amazing after a few hours of work, that included wash, clay, then using the machine to rub down the paint and then using a wax. best thing I ever did to the exterior of my car.
  3. hi guys, I am posting this on behalf of my friend who is border computer illiterate. For sale is an L28ET it has: P90 head NAPS intake with a ford throttle body so you need to convert to cable Reconditioned T4 Rotormaster turbo, this was done about 6 months ago I think; he has have receipts of the work. turbo dump pipe. Microtech LT8, brand new loom and rewired by a qualified auto electrician Electronic distributor 600cc injectors, these were new and were installed when the car was tuned on the dyno, receipts for work can be provided. Gearbox has an exedy clutch and we are not sure what type it is (71 a, b c?). The gearbox feels excellent and there are not clunking or any strange noise. The car is currently tuned and makes 206rwkw, it is a conservative tune for reliability. The engine is currently in the car and the owner is happy to take interested parties for a drive and welcomes compression and leakdown test as required; when the motor was installed the compression reads 155psi across the 5 cylinders and one of them read 148 psi. This motor was purchased from a reputable member off this forum and further money was spent to get it serviced and installed. This will basically be drop in with additional work required for exhaust as the dump pipe is a custom item and you will need to buy a set of intercooler pipes with the intercooler. Dyno print out and receipts and engine health report can be provided to interested parties. Reason for sale: looking at going RB25/RB26/VR38 Asking $3900ono please sms or call vince 0458459308 sorry the pics aren't the best http://instagram.com/p/tFXFuQDYPx/?modal=true
  4. you have to chop your own original parts to weld the sleeves or the ready assembled BC coils. or you can buy a completed set up from TTT for about USD $2000
  5. when you buy stuff from z car depot, go to their website directly and email the guy, I think his name is ryan or something? he will give you a better discount on postage/items cause bypass ebay.
  6. that's the devil z colour
  7. yep I think so, was in front of it, there was the food trucks in that section. It was really clean.
  8. mid night purple 3 is a nice colour or the devil z blue, there was a z at hanging rock that had the dark blue colour it glittered in the sun. I thought that was pretty nice.
  9. hey guys I didn't see this posted here so.. Is anyone from here going to the hanging rock picnic this sunday (8th of February) my toyota mate sent it to me http://www.tccav.org.au/?p=1729 this is their official website for the event http://picnicathangingrock.com.au/ it's going to be quite hot (forecast of 35 degrees Celsius) I might tag along with the tccav group at 7am at calder park as it's on the way from my area (cairnlea)
  10. I was very close to buying one and was talked out of it by 2 carb tuners, in their opinion they said they aren't good inside. Either go and get an L28 distributor and get it rebuilt or get a bosche one made. I got one made and it was about $700 but they would probably last forever.
  11. i knew you could clean with wd40 but I didn't know it could be used on wheels. Pro life tip for me this is a fancy pic of my car this is a normal pic of my car after a wash trying to be artsy pic at a workshop when I had some maintenance work done.
  12. Just got my wheels cleaned up at home, I took some pics and stuff I thought I would share it incase if other people would like to have a go. it's not hard or anything if you have questions ask away. my wheels were stained I am not sure why, but heaps of cleaning it never got rid of the water stains, and I never liked the colour. so my cousin helped me with this, he took the wheel off we gave it a clean with soap and water and wiped it down so it's dry and started to mask off the wheel barrel. gave it a coat of primer that we got from masters, there was only one type and it said it was good for steel and alloy the can costed $7. 1 can was enough for 3 coats for 4 of my wheel centres. then we gave it 3 coats of this metallic gold colour, at the start it looked really bad.. but the paint completely changed once it was dried up a few hours later I wanted a matt smooth gold finish but it looked like it was coated in a layer of gold melted cocholate texture, but my cousin who is a pro with rattle can painting said it's fine let it dry up.. i freaked out when it was like this: close up but when it all settled down it was like this. it's a flat matt gold, i was happy with the result.
  13. i would disagree, similar style wheels would be more accurate. rotas, superlites, wats are different
  14. pics of rear bumper please
  15. Each to their own, some people like to restore an old car, some people like to modify their car. Personally I like S30s with wide wheels and flares, and that's why my car has them OP requested pics of said description, and I happen to have a pic of a car that did so...
  16. Cut your fenders and buy some watanabes
  17. Sorry mate mines not an efi head
