So the only thing i've had left to do is fix the oil leaks, or as the rw centre said clean the engine of all oil stains.. So i got the old aussie export degreaser and high pressure washer out today and gave it a good clean! Hopefully all goes good at the roadworthy centre amd she should be on the road by christmas!

The VL's passed it's roadworthy and is heading to the rego centre tuesday!

good work mate!

i've been having some trubles with the old rb30. Its starts fine and runs nice for about 20 minutes, but once it gets too about half on the temp gauge it runs real bad and almost missfires and strugles. but once it gets over 2000rpm its fine. This pretty much makes the car un-driveable. I have gotten new spark plugs, new spark leads, new dizzy, new dist cap and a air flow meter. The problem is still there though. Anyway here's the engine bay at the moment. and here's the mass air flow meter. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Is it making any strange noises under the bonnet? Sounds a little like mine, which blew the exhaust manifold gasket, the oxy sensor wasnt getting the full flow and in turn the ecu tried to richen up the mix to compensate, so it generally ran like a ****ter until it got over a certain rpm

Also There is a ticking noise but i think thats normal as its been there for as long as ive had it.. also it doesnt seem like its running rich as the spark plugs arnt clagging up ect.. cheers for the reply.

lowerd the rear, i got my hands on some 'ssl's' or 'ultra lows' sits a tad lower then expected.. lemme know what you think. it should look a lot better and even out a bit once i get the fronts. 'sl' it should sit about 2cm higher then the rear. cheers Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Had a bit of a mix up with the front springs, but finally ordered the proper fronts. Super lows should be in the front within a week!

I got tired of the look of my old ghetto parcel shelf so i decided to go out and but some thin sub carpet to lace it with and make it look new again, i got charcoal colour: I also laced it around too the bottom to prevent any rattle from my sub: here's the finished product: I also got some speaker spacers to match! also the front springs arrived in the mail today!
