Re: Carburetor Help please!

all good food for thought, I really need to rip mine off and take a look at it, this would almost be the first Carb'd engine I have owned so need to look at it to start getting my head around the mechanics of it all!

Cheers for the advice though, hopefully I can make something work

4wd tracks around christchurch

Hey guys, hopefully this is the right place. Im wanting to do a day trip with a few friends in my safari this week, wanting a track that still needs 4wd but not too hard as to need support vehicles.

Re: gas guzzler patrol build

Has anyone put a 25de head on? would it be much harder to do as opposed to the standard 30e head?

I can see the merit of the DE head (without turbo) but I assume I would then need to chip and tune my ECU as opposed to being able to run a 30e ecu

Its an aussie import powered by a carberated rb30 engine. I made the call for petrol due to the minimal usage and didnt plan on the build getting...

Re: 2nd Gen Surf No Brakes!!

just out of interest on this topic, the proportional valve had about 1.5" of movement on the thread on diff housing, would I be right to assume that if you have given it a 2" lift, then the 1.5" of travel would come close to compensating for it, plus a wee bit of a bend in the rod?
