  1. Yes Ive done that too.. Also if you are wanting to track down one of your old cars or a car you want to buy I use the that. In fact ive brought a few cars that way.
  2. Ive seen one too. It had a silver gc8 front and bf legacy body. It thought it didnt look to bad. Im trying to find the pic of it.
  3. Im kean for amsoil. It was used in my old vortex since 1986. It had done 300,000kms and the motor and turbo wasnt ever touched.
  4. Does that simple green have to be washed off? Im looking at cleanning/degressing my Fuji Rabbit motor scooter. I dont want to blast it with water since its old and is a 2stroke. It may not start again : I need to find a fuel/oil leak but can not find it. The motor is all oiled up. So what should I do?
  5. Yes my one will lol
  6. They mite be very hard to find. Since None are sold here new. Only are 2nd hand Jap imports. Ive only ever seen one TraviQ here in Chch and that was last week.
  7. Is there any rules for building a Moped trailer ( to be fitted on behind the Moped lol )
  8. I prefer MPFI. There are some of the EA82 Omega shape that did come with SPFI but not that common I think? SPFI is more common in the states. Maybe you could use SPFI of a 1.8L Legacy? Fuel eccommony is not that great tho. Parts for the EA71 is getting a bit hard to get now. Of you look around you maybe able to find some.
  9. my spfi EJ18 Legacy is on 330,000+kms and still going strong. It loves to rev
  10. I tryed to Join up with the site a few years ago. I used my xtra email but never got sent the comfirmation email... even tho I did look for it in the spam box etc. Even early this year I tryed to see If I could re register or tryed to log on but couldnt and still asked me for me to do the comfirmation email. I did try email a mod etc but I think I got No reply. So I gave up. I was trying to find out info on my old Hi lux.
  11. 337000 km thats just run in lol Seen the EA81 last between 500,000km to 1,000,000 Kms... Saying that most have the body die before they get to those kms. Alot of people dont relise you shouldnt use 4wd on the Tarmac. I had a guy come look at my brumby and after I told him that. He told me that must had been why he blown the gearbox :
  12. I managed to go pick up some new plugs and the gaps do still look to be bigger than 1.1mm. Looks like I have to resize the gaps lol
  13. EJ18 sohc Spark plug gap info needed. Ok what should the spark plug gap be?? My plugs have about 2.5mm of gap lol : Thanks
  14. Yes thats cool as.. Just give me a PM closer to the time.
  15. I am in Cristchurch in the South Island if you will be comming down this way
  16. I would love to see some one do A EZ36 turbo build ive only seen one place attempt it in the States? They ran in to troubles with the motor and that was the last I heard.
  17. The 36 crank will not work.. Because the EZ30 and the EZ36 are almost completely different. The crank will not fit in a EZ30. Since the oil pump drive is in a completely different place... If you look futher down the thread it shows the guy compairing the EZ30/36 parts. [quote name='sponaugle said: As mentioned in this thread and a few others, Cobb no longer has an engine program, so EZ30R Cobb parts are not available. The crank pictured in this thread is a modified EZ36 crank. Unfortunatly this crank is not a direct drop in for the EZ30. Not only is the oil pump drive different, but the additional stroke requires a very special rod.Take a look at a Post I made last year: (pulled from url]http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?p=24087432&highlight=EZ30R#post24087432[/url]) Here are a few things to look at: As you can see, the change in the oil pump location (which is now in the oil pan), makes the EZ36 crank incompatible with the EZ30/EZ30R case. This prevents the use of the 3.6 crank (which has longer stroke) in the EZ30 application. You can also see the new EZ36 rod, which is very unusual. The asymmetrically design is needed to clear the case with the longer stroke. This rod is required to get the stroke to fit in the 3.6 case, and would not be usable in the 3.0L applications. So, in short, nearly everything is different. The heads are not compatible due to a change in the coolent passages, so the only option is a complete 3.6 buildup. Given the rod limitation, this looks to be very difficult. The stroke in the 3.6 is 91mm vs 80mm in the 3.0, and the bore is 92mm vs 89.2mm. So both more bore and stroke. Yep, I hoped it would work, but it looks unlikely. The change in the oil system makes crank swapping very difficult! You could over-bore the 3.0R motor, but it would make the liners even thinner then they currently are. Given the rod limitation, I think you could handle much more power with the 3.0 with aftermarket rods. I had little trouble breaking a stock 3.0R rods at the 400whp level, and the rods in the 3.6 look even weaker. More to come.. Jeff Sponaugle Also another guy I was talking too, Owned a new EZ36 powered Legacy and he said It didnt like to run at higher Revs.
  18. You pretty much will never see a 360 or FF-1... Ive never seen one and Ive been looking Theres a few leones left.. Brumbys are the most common of that series shape. Theres more Omegas around. Ofcouse they are a bit newer and havnt rusted out the same. Theres a few vortexs and SVXs around. You could be lucky to see one svx a day driving down here. A Vortex 6 um only pretty much at my place lol And there are still Fuji Rabbits around... But only see them out on classic bike/scooter runs.
  19. 6.0L for the SVX. I brought a Battery for the rabbit today. Still yet to get some Amsoil 2 stroke Mix and some rego and she be on the road
  20. I found a mouse in the air filter box in my SVX . It filtered the mouse.. I was amazied it didnt eat though the filter. Most pod filters ive looked at you can see light though from the other side. Would suck lots of dust in.
  21. I just brought another Fuji today try a ES11A for a engine code, Guess what it is
  22. I found out that the factory Alt for a Domingo is only 35 amp. If say I fit a 55amp or even a 65amp alt off a leone or omega would that cause any electrical problems? Thanks
