So got last parts primed up ready for final wet rub and paint

so turned my attention to the shell now, striped it out so I can rust proof the shit out of it and paint inside with some sort of black thick paint, maybe sound deadner or something

This is looking tidy since the paint job man

actully talking…[Read more]

That’s Good actually

I like truthfull opinions and ideas to make things better

Thanks every one, appreciate it a lot

yep that’s it, I’m not one to be persuaded much when I come up with ideas unless it’s better then I have in mind, cava did eventually make me see the light with a certain set of tail lights lol

but yep I have a fearly clear picture of what I want with this car, unlike my last build that just constantly…[Read more]

What did you do with your alternator ??

That is some epic pipe work work there man, well done

fibre glass sucks, Iv been working with it for weeks now doin body kit on Monaro

great stuff but it sucks to sand lol

Yeah I actually can not grab 6th till I’m doin 110km/h

100 it’s just on the limit of wanting to labour

I agree I would also get short ration 5th and 6th, they are just to tall, the whole gear box is to tall hence the reason for 4:11 to try bring it back to what feel normal

driving there is no way you would guess it’s 4:11 in it

I…[Read more]

Thanks guys, yeah it’s a beautiful colour to see under the lights

so interia is black seats and black dash, roof lining and plastic trims are a light cream/whitish colour and it’s all in good condition apart from door trims pealing up near window

I have a heap of black suede I will do the roof, plastics, rear parcel shelf in

Yeah man Spring is not tight enough

say if what ever your clipping it onto is distance of 150mm your spring would want to be about 75mm

needs some tension on it

remember your pushing it with your foot so it’s not goin to feel tight at all

I need to put myn on with plyers and throttle feels normal as under foot

Nice set up man

Chuck another spring butterfly

Common problem

Myn did it as well, at idle it will hold the throttles open a little

Myn would touch throttlw and sit on 2000rpm

You will notice with bonnet up lightly let throttle back and it will hold open but push it back and will idle normally

Spring fixes all that…

^^ he is right you know

4:11 and t56 = 1800rpm in 6th at 110km/h

Top speed of around 300km/h

<span style=”line-height: 1.5;”>Wicked take take off in 1st </span>

2nd screams to 100km if you have a decent revie engine

And 100-200km pulls like a mofo

I had 3.9 and thought nope 4.11 for the w…[Read more]

bit more is done, look very different under lights then it does out in the sun, that shine though

i don’t even know how much power I’m pushing, for a guess I would say 470-480rwkw at the moment with t56 and 4:11 gears

i can can get traction easy as, with 25% throttle

t56 is a great option to go for but need at least 3.5 gears, this ute keep goin all the way to 4:11 for sure

Only 3 or so weeks ay

Got the car in mid febuary and got it registered with on a few day then did all the usually service stuff then drove it for a few weeks while gathering parts up

Yeah it is nice colour that’s for sure

should look sweet for a daily driver lol

There use go Iv got a thread up about it now
