Changed the timing belt (was out about 5-6 teeth :S) all pulley belts and water pump today. Removed the air con pump aswell as it no longer worked. Installed a thermostat too. Had to get a new water neck (old one was rusty) and water pump pully thing today wrog the wrecks. Changing ALL the oil and filters tommrow, auto fluid + filter, diff fluid, power steering fluid, fuel filter. The block was CLEAN as where the water travels, and look at my ****ing lifters.... they look polished like even haha. Need a new rocket cover gasket too it seems, minor leak in the back. Should be done by tommorow night Didnt finish today, waited like 5 hours for a mate to get back form cranbourne to use his torque wrench to re adjust the tappets for the timing belt tensioner. Modded the airbox for the New CAI, and dummy fitted it today, looks shmick Then it got too dark to do the auto and everythign else. Hopefully we can get it done tomrmow once he finishes work Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Got my SL badge today, still looking for the holden boot badge. Waiting on my model yellow vl thoug, dont know whether to put it on the parcel shelf or on the dash :P Put the motor back together today, looks like a motor again Still havent started it, ran out of engine oil, tommrow = verdict if ticking is gone should be though as it came form the water pump which is now replaced. Put the bonnet rubbers in too, sits alot straiter then it did. Tommrow = Auto service, bleed steering fluids, diff oil change, Fuel filter. Hopefully i can get pitcures up by the end of the week with the new cai and stuff. job itnerview tommrow so hopefully the build can continue. Calais gets repaired too this week Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Verdict = TICKING IS GONE Need to open the rocket cover again though, tightned one of the back tappet bolts to tight by the sounds of it. Pics up when shes done Fuel cap is painted also, and hes going to spray my quater windwos for free since you can only buy the paint in 500ml tins Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

looks good mate would look even better with a beige interior

had it orginaly in it, but the leather was ****ed and so where the door trim rubbers, that seal the window so it was time to go, not to mentioned the vinal roof was spray painted with a can and the quater window panels where both snapped. Had a mate who had the carpet and roof for $50 and got the seats for $100, so why not. I got the old interior still if anyone wants it, back seat is in good condition but the front seats are pritty mangled. Borrowing my mates steam cleaner this weekend so interior should come up even better. GOT THE NEW JOB TODAY - only out of work for 4 days woooooo - let the project continue Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Still being worked on =[

get proper pursuit rims not the fakes man

Pulled the engine back apart, there was a minor tick in the rocket cover. Thinking it may be the oil pump ****ting itself and not sending oil up, could even be the pressure relief valve, not too sure. Either way, re-coing the ****er

getting this from shepparton if everythign works out, getting a pump pipe off my mate aswell for $90. so just need brown injectos and a comp right? what else would i need? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

you need dump pipe. down pipe from dump to cat , rest of the oil and water line

comes with the lines, cross over pipe, heat shield. not sure what kind of turbo it is though, pritty sure its standard. Pity i got to pay courier to get it too me otherwise woulda been quite cheap. No shaft play at all etc
