faaak... lucky fuller!?

fair enough, work with what ya got

the down side is, we have a crush type bender.. lol..

all nice and hydrolic, expander attatchments, and shrinkers etc, but still a crush type.. *Pouts*

I buggesd the boss a bit witht ehsuggestion of amandrel bender, but yeah, not ever likely to happen.. lol

so if im serious about producing a serious exhaust, i would have to order the bend parts.. otherwise suffer it out.. or maybe go with a 4" exhaust or something to compenstate for the crushed areas.. but, a 7 foot length of exhaust is about 14$.. so about 2$ per foot.. thats why i was looking into wall thickness etc, to see about making a kart frame outta exhaust pipe :idea2: :D

could do her for CHEAP CHEAP! lol

Im not sure of my dream car yet, but for certain its going to have a rb20det in it mate!

i would really like a vw golf caddy ute but theres really not enough room in there for an rb... maybe an sr haha.

If it was to be an RB, go rb26dett in a r32. :D

my first car (im 16)...2004 chevy silverado, 4.8 V8 w/ 150,000 miles that i bought for $1,800 from a fleet, the guy used it to commute on the highway 2 hrs each way every day.

just got through putting a flowmaster muffler, 4500K hid's (they actually look good) and a cold air/short ram air intake in, as well as a major stereo system overhaul :D

Dude jbruch, you are freakin lucky. Fleet cars are cheap but 1800?! I want an extended cab 2wd just like what you have. I am so jealous. Awesome find!

yeah, and its 100% mechanically sound is the best part. i bought it with 140K on it, and since it was fleet owned it was probably maintained well for the most part, all i did was replace the diff fluid, water pump, belts and plug as preventative/normal maintenance.

My newest addition to the family. It's a Suzuki LJ81. The cool part is, I've got an LJ50 engine for it, they're a 539cc 3 cylinder 2 stroke! Yes, that's right, I am building a 2 stroke ute! :D

You may not believe it but this is the long wheelbase version, that's a huge 87" wheelbase, it's probably the smallest 4WD ute ever made! A bit smaller than a Suzuki Sierra/Samurai.

It now has ALOT more primer on it, die rust, die! :devil2: Oh and my dogs name is Spot! :D





Thanks

Hayden

Are you going to keep the name, "Yello Terra II"? A 2 stroke vehicle is just strange to me. That's a large engine bay for only a 3 cylinder engine too. It should be fun!

I'm sure keeping the name!

They sold 2 stroke LJs over there, you guys got the LJ10 (360cc 2 cyl air cooled) and LJ20 (360cc 2 cyl water cooled). Also the LJ80/81 like mine with a huge 800cc 4cyl but this time 4 stroke. The LJ50 was basically the only mass produced 2 stroke car we got over here. If you dig deeper you'l find thousands of manufacturers who've sold a few 2 stroke cars in your country, they certainly aren't a common thing though! :thumbsup:

The engine bay is actually tiny! From the bell housing to the radiator I measured 50cm. Believe it or not, the 4 cylinder 4 stroke that came out of it is actually shorter and narrower than the 3 cyl 2 stroke that's going into it!

It looks quite a bit bigger than it is because it's so well proportioned, that tray is only 140cm (55") long, big quad bikes are just as wide as it too. Too sit in it comfortably you have to wind the window down and have your shoulder and arm out the window! :roflol:

Thanks

Hayden

Speaking of insurance, A mate of mine just got a twin turbo, 6 speed manuel Toyota Supra (280hp stock). Costs him $100 a month and he is 18 years old.

One day I will have a 240sx, s14, Sr20det. Life will be complete.

Jeremy.

That's cheap. I have a 70's VAN, and I pay 750 every 6 months and I'm 17. Paying bi-yearly is cheaper than monthly, so I would probably be a little under 200 if I payed monthly.
