Re: What work did you do on your car today?
Picked up some new wheels for the Legacy today, $100 including tyres, although not the greatest tyres...
Found yesterday I had a big leak in one of my 'barely legal' tyres on the steelies, so figured I'd get something better.

Hahaha, this car actually doesn't have one from factory, NZ new for the win [emoji14]
Also finally got the 6a13 on the engine stand, was a pain to do by myself, having never done it before.

Getting it all fitted into the FTO, exhaust made up, intercooler piping done etc, then pulling everything out for a rebuild.bjk wrote:Solid effort!

Re: What work did you do on your car today?
Why go to the effort of removing it again when you can do it now while it's already out?

Would it make a difference if they want to see how things sit to get them fabricated, or is that fairly irrelevant since you can measure where things go?Vectose wrote:Why go to the effort of removing it again when you can do it now while it's already out?

Re: What work did you do on your car today?
Because I don't have the money to rebuild it all now, and it gives me something to do in the meantime. Otherwise everything will be sitting loss in the garage for the next 6 months.Vectose wrote:Why go to the effort of removing it again when you can do it now while it's already out?

I swear someone needs to start up a small loans business with reasonable interest rates, that allows people to finish car projects and pay earlier and pay the amount off in chunks.Technikhaus wrote:Because I don't have the money to rebuild it all now, and it gives me something to do in the meantime.

Pretty much that, I want to get it all mounted, so piping etc can be made up, whilst I save to buy the LSD, and such.
