  1. I should be able to make that. I almost felt like a noob last weekend on 311:rolleyes: Qman let me go first.....bad idea:lol: That should give me a week before the show to repair anything I might break.
  2. Well, theres the long version of what I said:-p
  3. Yeah, but can you drive it on the street? Not saying I'm quite legal(Ken and I had a close call Sunday) but I dont have a trailer and tow rig. So I have to drive where I wheel.
  4. I have Ranchos on my rear(haha). I just did 2 EA82 DOJ axle cup swaps today. I should do at least 2 more for spares. Hopefully that will give me the added length for flex so I dont blow them so easily. Just hope I dont start snapping stubs now:rolleyes: I have 3 old diffs laying around, better remove some stubs for spares too. Also need to replace a front axle, sounds like a rock in a old hubcap going round and round:-p
  5. The only thing it would be good for is looks. If you try and pull anything or even yourself, that bumper is coming off. Whats the rating on the winch?
  6. ^^^Do that, then touch up with chrome Testors chrome paint, then put a clear coat on them. But do the touch up after you install them.
  7. Very observant! Eh, you had to be there:cool:
  8. Yup, got it in, worked great. Almost to good, blew to axles:-p I'm going to scavenge a couple of my EA82 rear axles and swap out the cups to see if it helps. Got to do something, I dont want to carry around 3 or 4 axles on each trip:rolleyes: Did it on 311, of course. Picked the wrong line the first time and used to much throttle the 2nd time.
  9. Alright, I couldnt resist:rolleyes: I do get close, but no cigar:-p
  10. Ok, heres some pics of todays runs. If you want to see some of Qmans pics you need go to the the Toyota thread in OT:-p The first ones a little fuzzy, I hit the vid button first and backed it up to fast. These are all flex shots, with the last one being my newest cosmetic addition. This last one is where I pushed the passenger door in good enough to keep the window from going up and unable to open the door from the outside. Its hard to tell and once I got home a pushed it back out, its even harder to tell it was dented. Gotta love that camo paint job:headbang: Oh yeah, blew out 2 more DOJ cups today too:rolleyes:
  11. I'm not sure (I havent had a alignment in over 20yrs) but maybe the new setups are computerised and when you punch in 14in tires for a Subaru for the car info it comes up with a error.
  12. I think Heartless is spot on here. A good contact cement should be the ticket. Make sure both surfaces are clean prior to application.
  13. Looks like all OEM stuff to me. Good deal, I've bought from them before. Uh, a few days to install?:-p And you dont need to leave feedback right away. I usually wait a week if they are parts that I need to install.
  14. Trying to get a quick run setup for EC tomorrow. I know its kind of short notice, but I just got my Hatch ready for the trail again and want to do a shake down run. Hopefully without breaking anything! Dont want to have to wrench on it again right before the show. I'm already doing another engine swap on my RX before the show:rolleyes:
  15. Certainly a plus to help out the local economy.
  16. Thats kinda why I mentioned using a turbo. It would be the rolling version of a microwave oven:grin:
  17. He was asking me if I still had any rear disc brakes, said he lost his and hit a curb....to avoid hitting a car:rolleyes: As to what was wrong with it, he didnt say.
  18. Connie, I thought I included all the bolts for the job:-\ I'm sorry if I forgot/lost some. I'm just keeping the circle going here. Someone did something like this for me last year (cept I wasnt in dire need, thanks again Matt) and in return he said do the same for someone else if you get a chance. I shipped a set of rear disc to AU about a month ago and yes, shipping was pricey. But it might be considerably less for SA. If your interested PM me your mailing address and I will get you a shipping quote. And no, the front and rear brake pads are quite different in size.
  19. Yeah yeah yeah. You were probably cussing a blue streak cause of all the packing popcorn in the box. And I included used brake pads to boot:rolleyes: Now get Bucky back on the road so you can work on Rocky;) I did this in part because I failed to get your other stuff shipped prior to Carlisle:-\ Thats coming soon, I'm just having problems finding something to box a huge door panel in:-p Oh, and your welcome:cool:
  20. This would probably work better on a turbo model. All you would need to do is have a hot plate that would sit on top of the turbo. I'm sure it would cook things quite well;)
  21. What about EC tomorrow?:cool:
  22. I got a PM a few days ago from the kid saying he got the car running. This post might not be relavent now.
