they have some of the best food ever... would rather go there that some snob 5 star joint

don't take it so seriously... its the internet. i think 150 to have a windscreen installed sound pretty reasonable. just be carefull windows are not the easiest thing to put in right and can have disaterous results if done wrong.

not a girls name but call it sid cause its like a big red nose.

i had 20's and got rid of them the profile was to low and made the ride crap also our road is bump and full of pot holes and the wife buckled both left ones. might not have happened if i had 19 like i do now. as far as lagality what wraith said. i remember reading one of the tyre experts on here...

vote 3 for the manual... to be honest all these people that say "i got an auto because i live in the city and don't want to change gears all the time" i really don't get it its not hard and the fun you can have with it when your out of the traffic... well there is no comparison and even more so...

then they are not vy ss rims... they where 18's it might be the offset doesn't suit a vl, a spacer might fix it but i'm not overly knowlagable about vl's

i love this thread... anyway when my wife goes to the shopping center she always parks in the same place over 2 parks between 2 poles so now one else can hit the car again with a door being to careless and or just not giving a f$%* enough to be carefull of other peoples things.

^^^^^ and seconded. use above fancy wheel to work out what specs you need on said module. led idicators are a common mod on bikes and cause the same problem... i have used car flasher moduels to fix it in the past. use a multi meter to work out values to get the right module if your unsure.

thats just what we need... some wanker giving the cops another way to revenue raise instead of finding the prick that sole my motorbike!

just went to take a pic for you but there is a v8 in the way and not enough light. i'll get one tomorrow so you can see where it is.

ok so i don't have pics but i'll try and explian it the way i did it. i fed the power cable through the fire wall with the wiring loom, just need to look for it it not had to find. its hard to get through i poked a coat hanger through and taped the 2 togeather to pull it through. i then run it...

i have an rx7 had a similar problem that i solved really easily... turned out the hydrolic clutch was low on fluid and wouldn't dis-engage the clutch properly making it har to change gear. not sure if this is whats wrong with yours but its easy to check. reverse was the first to start giving me...

so rego stickers don't exsist in S.A. any more??? i wish it happened down here in tas cause i hate them and get a $60 fine (almost) every time i get stopped and don't have it stuck to a window.

i personally love retro tech so i would leave the efi on and use a rat block. there was a hq monaro a a few years back with a 454 in it and the guy that built it said even though it has a huge engine bay, he still needed to do a lot of cutting to get it in properly and make it look good, also...

sorry double post

tep the wife would let me buy that... out of my share of the money from selling the house in the divorce. lol

^^^ this (my car) plus this plus LOTS of this would equal this then comes this and finally this ahh what a week it would be!!!

get noodles frozen peas and corn mix and hot dogs (the thin ones) breake the dogs into bits. chuck it all in the kettle cover it with water + 2 inches and cook till the noodles are done and don't make my mistake of letting the mrs find out.

lift it up a bit take the sump off and measure the throw on the crank you could also try the bit of wire in the spark plug hole but i'm not a huge fan because you can put scratches in the bore wall. just curious, what makes you think it could be a stroker?

so time for an update what iv'e done is stuff all but i do have a growing pile of parts. i'm going to wait for it to get big enough then take a week of and go to town on it. what i'v done so far: got a free dyno tune FTW 10% underdrive kit heavyduty exedy single plate whats in the...

i have ceramic coated tri y headers, hi flow metal cats and a twin 3 inch mandrel system and its all stainless on my 5.7 and i think it sounds awesome, and i made a very noticable difference to the power as well. it does sound a little bit tinny but i kinda like that especially when it burbles...

so thats going to come in handy when it comes to getting a mates aprilia rs 125 race bike to sing. just had a quick glance over it and it seems to be a good guide to help narrow variables to to make some more specific, educated changes. with some luck we can get it to really move. so thanks...

I must have this in my life!!!!!!!

must resist smell'o'vision comment

i think the goverment needs to sit down and talk with the pure blood elders and ask them how to fix it. after talking with a few my self and having an aunt and uncle that works in a aboriginal school in the nt almost all of them are of the same opinion as us. i.e. cut off their money give them...

brake pads are really easy to change but if you not sure see if a mate or someone will come and show you how to do it so you can learn... they are the most important safety device on the car and you want to make sure its right. besides that any mechanic will be able to do it for you. as for...

^ +1 infact normally they stop squeeking when you apply the brakes.

check your brake pads they may be getting low (down to the squeel tab) and check both sides if one is wearing faster than the other you will need to have them looked at

thats is a pretty awesome car but it isn't 100% street legal the obvious one (ironicly considering the thread) was the nitrous purge. it may have a rego sticker but it isn't legal.

it was said earlier that nitrous isn't flamable... and it isnt. but is an "oxidising agent" and a gas under pressure, if in a crash the system was compramised and there was a fire the massivly expanding gasses (not sure exactly what the expansion rate is) do have a simmilar effect to putting a...

i'm not getting into the argument side of thing beyond agreeing that using nitrous on the street goes way beyond irresponsible and i hate that i share the the road with people that think this sort of thig is ok. but a question and hypothetical - lets say a responsable person decides that a drag...

Do i detect a fellow freight driver? cause that pisses the hell outa me!

+1 i tried did exactly that on the ss and it looked crap so then painted it in panther mica which looked awesome then a guy saw it and offered me $200 for it so now i have the standard one back on which i need to paint when i have time.

take the shaft out and get an s bend in it or replace it with one that already has one in it and problem solved.

now how awesome does that look!!!!!

unfortunatly not... google has failed me i picked those as they where 5 spoke rims with i decent lip on them but any rim like it would work as long as its shiny. maybe these if thats better

sorry if this is a pain but this is a triumph mk1 1967 and europa rims i was hoping someone could lower it 3 inches get rid of the door handles and locks open the intake in the bonnet to about 2 inches remove the word triumph and badge off the front and put the rims on to look like they...

ah thats cool. i'm interested. the mrs is off having her hens night so i'll have to wait till she can walk straight to talk to her about cash and cause i work for a freight company i'll talk to them about freighting here on monday. where in vic are you so i can work that out?

also 1 more question i have been wanting to upgrade the brakes for a while but iv'e been trying to find out about pads... i wouldn't think usuall VY pads fit so when i want to replace them do i need to get on the net and get them (from harrop for e.g.) them especially for the calipers or are...

how long have they been sitting for... do they have any rust pitting on them... what kind on condition are they in?
