petefj40 looking for a 24 valve 80 n FOUND ONE!!

[petefj40]

were did ya get that bar from?

ive got one of those on the bighorn and dont know where to get them.

Japan I'd say lol Tom will make you a wicked bar pete that one you have could be returned to Sender and would make great coke cans

I've got a couple of people interested in it Tim.
Personally, I liked the look of it. $200 is all it's worth though.

[Dirtydog]

i wonder how much the scrap man would pay......

$20?

[hosehustler]

I don't wish to bag it pete but Tom will make something way cooler if you have offers of that price. Go for it

[petefj40]

I'm with you Tim.

I've just listed the original bar on TM for one dollar reserve.

Reason the plate isn't fogged out is, that it's de-listed. You can't find out where it lives.

[Dirtydog]

dam i was hoping they were worth more than that....

Ahh I'll have to check up and make sure it's still mot public.
Would of thought once you opt out it is for the life of the ownership of the vehicle.

[petefj40]

Waiting for my front bull bar to be finished from Tom's?
I feel like a kid waiting for a new toy or something. I pick it up Sunday night. (he's got a few other small detail jobs to do on it before it's ready) But he recons he's got the shape of it together today. I'm ment to be getting some pix emailed to me tonight.

[petefj40]

Tom? You ARE the man!!!!



Get ready for the other 80 owners wanting the same bar.
Not to mention your skills on any farking 4X4 mod'd truck.

[red-devil]

Tom how easy would it be to make this again but factroy winch freindly

[Dirtydog]

seeing that makes me want to get an 80....

[rokhound]

You won't regret getting that receiver in there Pete. Front towbars are the shizzle when it comes to shunting trailers about (i have them on 4 of my trucks). Forklift is the only thing that is better.

I plan to cut that on the same angle as the bash plate so its not a filthy big anchor.

[petefj40]

I'll have to change my ORE avatar now.
Stoked at Tom's work!
I'll throw a pic up once the winch is in and the truck gets cert.
Should be tomorrow night.

[petefj40]

That's good to hear!
I brought another truck this week. It'll be getting tints done from the same guy.

Brought a 1995 80 Series Limited 24 valve. Auto( ) but leather.
Getting everything swapped over on it in the next couple of weeks.

[KIWI_TERRANO]

Very nice pete as always jealous

[petefj40]

Very nice pete as always jealous

I do feel pretty lucky to get a 24 value 80 with leather.
Only has LSD diffs so looking at Eaton's electric diff lockers over the ARB ones.
Going to swap over from the old 80
-3 inch exhaust
-Suspension lift
-Front bar
-Rocksliders
-PRS
and a few other small things. Then sell it.
It's still a manual 80 with tripple lockers and custom rear bar certed.
And a pretty fresh motor at that.
Should go up on TradeMe next month.

This is the reason I pulled my entry in the Chch teams event this weekend.

[Big]

Should go up on TradeMe next month.

mmmmmm

[petefj40]

Should go up on TradeMe next month.

mmmmmm

Seriously.
Who ever buys this truck?
-Turbo housing replaced
-Head removed plained and faulty valve replaced
-Injectors checked, one replaced.
-Aircon fixed n refilled
-Front swivel hubs re kitted
That's just off the top of my head...
Who ever buys this truck, I've fixed it. It's a good runner and ready to go.
My loss, your gain.

Why not swap diffs and keep the factory lockers??? It's just plug and play, all the wiring is there already

[petefj40]

Very true.
But then I'd miss out on the bigger brakes.

[sig]

just swap heads .would still be cheaper than new lockers

you need bigger brakes in a SUV why? fair enough in a car capable of going well beyond 100kph on a racetrack.......

Cause knowing pete and being a 24valve he will try pull some better kw figures out of it, can get these easily making 125-140kw = same as a new moderm commonrail so answers need for bigger brakes

[lilpigzuk]

I have only seen photos and heard stories what he did with "400KWS", so being you guys are nutswinging his upgrades to the new VX, I am phuckin glad I am not in the same island ( is very sarcastic)
