I take it rebuilding to stock?
Why not just get slights bigger cams? You rarely got below 5k in those vids, so you wouldn't be suffering overall
rebuilding with trd head gasket and a skimmed head to make flat, apparently 2 valves were leaking which was causing me to lose some compression so should be alot better, also dont have the money/time to source and fit cams, its okay there are other areas of the car that will make it more reliable before i start chasing power.
The diff needs to be rewelded and i need to source s series diff sway bar u strap thingos that bolt to housing
so just got delivered this
also got a new oil filter to go with new oil for le engine
Whats the difference over a std one? Or are they not much dearer than a std one?
"Not all commodore drivers are wankers, but all wankers drive commodores"
so engine is rebuilt, goes great, i sourced some sway bar brackets but now need to source bushes, diff centre is at speedy diffs being re welded and then im good to go!
trying to get it all done for HR annual
the 71 loved the HR annual, was great seeing toyotas actually driving all together, couple of mishaps but that happene when you have 20 x 20 year old cars
the roads were just epic, indescribable, 10 x better than natio
i had no issues, got my diff centre rewelded for it, and also got the correct bush brackets thanks to jo (maxhag) i had to modify the original AE71 bush to suit the smaller AE86 bracket which was a dirty sticky rubbery job
middle of this week i have noticed my charge light coming on, ill take the alt off this week and get Golberg to rebuild it for me with new denso parts
and ive booked myself in for wet skid pan day 30th dec at EC

so went for some wet skids on 30th with driving sports, was heaps of fun! even managed to get my gf to passenger with me for a run
did an oil and coolant flush as they were due
this was filmed on my gopro black edition i got for chrissyon default settings, i should have filmed in 1080p rather than 1440p
finally got round to putting this in! old saggy steel frame omp seat, using modified stock ae71 rail, so slider still works
