oh right ! there was talk of a "commadore killer" sticker
.....
there is a pommy website www.oldskoolford.co.uk and all the escorts have that as a sticker across the windscreen, i was thinking we could do the same , like all the guys and gals on hot escort get WWW.hot-escort.net on our windscreens ! i think it would be kool
what do ewez think?
2005/11/15 00:45:15
lucas
sounds like a good idea. then were all apart of an escort gang all across australia haha. i also want a sticker that says commodore killer.

any of you guys a auto electrition? or know a good auto sparky?
i want my alarm and turbo timer set-up and linked up!
2005/11/17 14:53:43
jrmr
I used to wire up car alarms at work. Do you have the alarm yet? Dynamco sell a good alarm system with provision for turbo timer. It retails for about $390 i think. Turbo timer should only have three wires so its easy to hook up
2005/11/17 15:06:03
BRIZEY
i've got a matrix pager alarm ($500), i'm waiting on the turbo timer from autobarn !
i'll be in contact, thanks

what the hell kind of rock have i been living under? that looks great! i had no idea that van in your display pic was infact the panno on the first S.A cruiz a while back. looks great, those home made adjustable strut tops are also killer
2005/11/20 21:07:05
Mk2_2dr_2L
Very cool... $5500 isnt too much for that engine install.. i would consider that fairly cheap..

What is that brake booster out of ? and how hard was it to fit / what sort of costs were involved in fitting it ?

Thanks,
Damion
2005/11/20 23:12:24

it already had a mod. brake booster , before i got the new engine, if i can find a pic of the old engine i'll post it.

Brizey,
Isn't it a Twin Cam Escort remote booster or something? I remember it looking like one and had Ford stamped in it.

I may have put enigne bay pics in orginal cruise pics I posted up.

Rhys

wow wat an improvement, the ca18 really fills out the engine bay doesnt it. with the pic of the rear wheel, is that the real height or did you get your mates to sit in the back? i would relli love a pano to do this kinda stuff with it. is this van registerable etc? i look forward to seeing it again. whats the inside like also? lol sorry for the 20 questions bombardment.
2005/11/21 23:42:27
BRIZEY
its ok i'm happy to answer any and all questions
i have adjustable air shocks (not hydrolics or air bag) in the back , when i get good brakes i could make it street legal, the inside is ok lots of little things, custom door trim , carolla rally seats with custom mounts, sports steering wheel, semi rollcage, heaps of after market gauges (voltmeter, oil pressure, oil temp, water temp, boost) 3.5inch tacho mounted inside the drivers side air-con vent , head unit mounted where the air-con controlls were, air-con unit completely removed, remote cental locking, 2way pager alarm system which links into (remote ignition , turbo timer) not yet installed On the car itself it has a shaved roof , shaved rear bumpers , front bumper shortened by 2" , front springs lowered by 3" with cutomised adjustable camber, and probably some more but i can think of it...........................so yeah she's had a bit of work done[%]

and sorry to be difficult but how do you shave and shorten the bumpers?
2005/11/23 22:41:33
lucas
brian pretty much lives with me so il try and explain how they have done.

it looks like they have just cut off 2 inches either side of the bumper and rounded it to look like the original bumpers pretty simple they havent shaved the front bumpers but the back is shaved meaning that it doesnt have any bumpers this makes the car look way more tuff with smooth round edges.

il get him to post if im wrong but hes lazy.[88][88][88]

dont think it was a diff????still had good drive and no rattle etc....

it had a pritty severe swerve to it when acceleration applied so......[xo][xo][8~2]

cheers
rhys
2005/11/25 09:22:28
lucas
didnt blow the diff seems like the left axel broke still drives but with a very big swerve when he gives it a bit of gas.

i jacked the left wheel off the ground to see if it would spin with handbrake off and it spun it shouldnt do that cause it has a locked diff.

we will see
2005/11/25 18:19:20
BRIZEY
ahhhhhhhhh........
well i guess it was only a matter of time![8~2]
i'm taking the wheel off tomorrow (sunday) cos i've been at work all day, ummm.... i do believe it to be a snapped left axel. however it did get side ways off the line , dropped the clutch at about 4500rpm , the back end moved to the right , hit close to redline and then bang[xx(]!!, i immediately thought it was the diff, i still had drive tho, when i accelerated it pulled to the left. i got it home and jacked it up and i can spin the left wheel independently (i have a welded diff) [:-(]not good!
i'm going to the wreckers (upullit) to find a mk1 left axel (if it works out to be that)
if its good i'll post some pix
2005/11/26 18:49:39
BRIZEY
i got a couple of pix but i'm having trouble uploading.
the end of the axel looks like a soft serve ice cream.
so any one have a good diff i can buy?

brizey, have you ever had you car dynoed? got any idea of power?...interested after the way you chased down that skyline.
2006/01/03 22:53:12
lucas
yeah its at standard 180sx hp so i think thats 7 pound boost and 140kw or somethin round there.. he hasnt had it dynoed or tuned yet he needs to cause u probably saw the crap comin out the back wen we were chasing the syline.

im glad you had fun watching him chase it cause i was crapping my self u could feel the back end loosing traction and floating around. but he kept up with a r32 so i guess it was all for the better.

If you don't mind , when i go to ask for the diff , can i get yo'll to come up with me, hopefully i can get some money off or at least another boss stubbie holder[88] hahahaha
it won't be for a while yet coz i'm ghetto pov![8~2]

ok i'm starting to do up the ca van , i've seen a few ca in some recent hot&fast fours mags and they just look so much more tidier , mine has wires and loom verywhere so plenty of work , i was also wondering if anyone else on the forum has tubbed there car and how hard it will be coz i gotta the lowest van in sa if not OZ [88] challengers bring it on!!!![xx(]
2006/07/18 15:21:55

sorry mate i only just read the thread bout the diff.... i can go with you but i doubt its gunna help u get a discount or even a stubbie holder ( i dont even have one) and i aint had much to do with him over the last 3 years, i use the guy next door mixo ( hes my mechanic).... graheme is a fair and honest bloke the only advise i can give you is dont haggle with him, just accept his price and let him do his job, then he will respect you and you will always be able to go back for help.... and dont drool to much over the drag panno in the workshop....

so u keen for this next cruise\???
i recon we keep it local though and end up at mine for a beer....

ok so i've started pulling the mk2 apart , tidying up the wiring and sheeet , what a nightmare , looks like i need to do alot of labelling! [8~2][8~2]
2006/09/08 20:27:56
sundowner
so is she gunna be off the road for a while??????

what plans do u have for the body eg paint ect....
2006/09/08 21:32:24
BRIZEY
yeh paint ...............not really sure i wanna keep it white but who knows......
i've just found out that turbo timers are not street legal (what the?) not sure why but it is!
i'm getting the feeling that there will be alot of F****d up rules and laws that i'll need to work out to get her fully legal[8~2] !
hopefully it won't take too long coz i miss driving it already[8~2][8~2][8~2][8~2][8~2][8~2][8~2][8~2][8~2]

you should put a pearl over white, cause then its still white and a different colour in the sunlight.

haha, turbo timers ellegal. soon everything on cars will be ellegal, u will probably just have to leave them factory caus i also know that cops can get you for a different gear knob if it doesnt have the H on it.

cheers
2006/08/14 17:06:54

ok so i've pulled out tonnes of wiring and poo poo and hooked the battery back up and the car still starts 'YEAH', which means i have'nt freaked anything up yet 'YEAH' ! i'll get some pics up soon of the mess , you'll see, its messy
