Looking forward to seeing those coil overs on mine

personal favourite sparco, i like the style and quality, not that much work to be honest, i got a hub kit for aftermarket steering wheels in a reduced section in a car acccesories shop, was meant for a honda civic, i cut the spline off the old steering wheel, welded it on, and on it all went, horn is on a seperate button, and the seats, i bolted 2 pieces of box section on the front to back of the seats, then going the otherway, welded on with holes to mount the standard runners onto, and they sit bang on where you want them, not too high or low!

hmm, yes, a 4 link setup would be quite doable i reakon, but i would like to keep independent, the subaru way, if only the LSD's were more avalible over here! ive got some thoughts, and will faff with it when the engine is done, but loads of ideas flying around long of the short, where are you from again, we need to meet up and discuss drifting issues! haha!

right, im thinkin bout fittin, one, has anyone got any recommendations, otherwise would anyone be able to tell me the thread of the oil filter screw on part, so i can find out what sandwich plate i need many thanks!

mmmm! yummy! that sludge was mental! i recognise this truck now! lol, i really wanted his wheels a few years ago, but that engine is looking proper smart man, very nice, looking like its gonna be a well smart truck man!

well, heres the stainless steel flange plates for the exhaust, 8 in total, and 4 spark plug blank offs for the (atm) redundent plugs

now theres a creative bit of thinkin, i like it! thats gonna get the mind goin now! lol!

here are the carbs on the new custom inlet manifolds, made from aluminium

i have the twin spark dizzie, but it uses electronic advance, and the gains from it, because of the plug location arnt really justifyable

this was with the standard engine in, just a K&N, cherry bomb, RWD and adjusted fuel mixture, loads of other bits and bobs like wheels and lowered etc, but no others engine wise, so eay to kick out in the wet!

right, so, update! the heads are back (FINALLY!) from the machine shop, and lookin good! heads on! engine is in! new clutch in behind that as well, and bearing, sitting behind that lightened flywheel, which i can't wait to see how it reasponds! the stainless steel dual port manifolds should be on tomorrow or monday with the webers ontop! plenty left to do still, redo the water lines, new alternator belt,inlet manifolds on, weld on the stainless system, put some new throttle cables in, oil pressure guage to hook up, setup the carbs, test it all etc!

lol, when its done! and it used to do wet tarmac all the time, but i need an LSD for the dry! lol!

yeah, soz, i have only just got internet rigged up, have moved house, so been trying to sort stuff, will check the offset on monday when the garage is open

lol, nope, never seen one before in my life! haha!

yeah, was thinking what i could do, i have 3 sets of 13" rims lying around, i wonder how wide i could get them hmmm lol
