Silly-Karr's Stable **PICTURES GALORE**

[Silly-Karr]

UPDATE: I've bit the proverbial bullet and I'll be sporting a set of Cusco Zero 2 coilovers yo!

Let the waiting game begin... *twiddles thumbs*

[bonbon]

cant wait bro!

i wanna see how these puppies feel on the street

[Silly-Karr]

I've put the coilovers on the backburner for now and will prolly lower the Sportivo in the way of King springs.

In the meanwhile I've invested in a new project and it came with 11 months rego w00t!

It is carby-tek for now but I have some major plans for it but this will be an epic build up hopefully.

Misso been silly giving it a whirl around the block

20 years apart...

Oh yeah Jonny came over last night and we installed the window visors. Had a few beers aswell so it was win/win.

Cheers

Luke

hahaha i wanna see the photo of my new grill

can't wait to start working on that ae man, gonna be fun times

[Silly-Karr]

Well Jonny and a couple of mates came around last night and we got stuck into installing our TRD CAI.

Took us abit long after a battery terminal saying bye bye and a quick dash to Supercheap later we were on our merry way. I have to admit, even though I didnt do jack schitt, it was a real tight fit and no way would it fit with the TRD pod that was provided.

We had a break and went nuts.... We got 5 family pizzas and started hacking into them and we finished up not too long after.

Hammered it down the streets and DAMN!!?! It sounds mad as phuck!

Anyways onto the pics:

edit: we ended up using a DRiFT pod filter

[bonbon]

for some reason, luke's is 300 times louder than mine

his pod is abit more up the intake pipe, while mine sits at the end of it

[Kelpie]

Interesting and informative. thanks silly-kar. What are your plans for the old AE-86?

Hey J play with the throttle abit and you might get that hell deep suction/V8 noise... I dont know, I was playing around with it and it seems if you apply full throttle at about 3,000 rpm it makes that deep as sound.

Interesting and informative. thanks silly-kar. What are your plans for the old AE-85?

Cheers Kelpie!

As for the Sprinter, i think its going to be one of those epic projects but in saying that this is what I want in the foreseeable future (6-12 months)

• Rust free body
  
• Stripped interior
  
• CAMS approved Half Cage (for those spirited track/drift days)
  
• Full respray: Interior and Exterior
  
• Drivers side and passenger Bucket seats
  

Im wanting to go along the lines of 20 Valve and eventually running trumpets but thats me just dreaming for now.

Cheers

Luke

[Kelpie]

Nice. Love the 20 valve- a great engine with an interesting history.

2.0 litre or 1.6?

[bonbon]

i havent heard of a 2litre 4a?

[wil_rolla]

nice work guys, i wonder why J's isn't as loud?? i don't think that afew cm diffrence on where the pod sits would make that much of a diffrence..

[bonbon]

No idea

Wil/Luke do you get a ticking sound from your VSV? The one that was mounted to the airbox.

Mines friggen loud as, annoys the crap out of me.

Oh schitt..... head for the hills.

[wil_rolla]

nah i don't really get a ticking sound... i'm not sure if the 1zz has the valve thingy... the 1zz's only had the air flow metre attached to the intake, thats it.. i didn't have to block any valves or leave anything out.. it was a simple swap and go..

my pod is sitting at the end of the intake pipe as well Johnny, and you remember how loud mine gets...

[bonbon]

im not saying its not loud, its just not as loud as lukes :P

mmm

ive got my fog light out and its rain like a mofo..... hahaha wish me luck!

edit: just remembered, we put your rubber on backwards luke, maybe tahts why

Well I recieved some King Springs Low for the Sportivo today.

Mad Props to SILVABULLIT 1!!11!!!

They'll be installed in the next few days so pics will be sure to follow.

[bonbon]

>=) low ryda ~

[Kelpie]

i havent heard of a 2litre 4a?

Yeah, you're right bonbon. I was thinking of the Cosworth BDA engine when I wrote that.

[Silly-Karr]

Well the Sportivo is now sitting lower then standard and has been dropped on some King Lows. I dropped it off at 9am then picked it up by noon.

So now all I need to get done is get these C-ONE wingtips fibreglassed on then the misso and I will be pretty happy with the exterior.

We'll then get cracking on some I.C.E in the way of some headrest DVD screens and upgraded speakers. But until then onto the pics. ENJOY
