silver and black ja - vr4

[Mick]

hey guys haven't been on here long but should've put these up sooner.

she's had the vr4 treatment, custom just about everything, rx7 fic, momo bits, re leathered recliners, new carpet, yucky 17's and satin black two tone.





hope i haven't offended anyone with the paint but the factory silver was fading horribly. :beer

more pics dudes








thanks goes out to flav for the rear quarter window and redzone for the bumper, you guys rule! :beer

don't mind the paint, well done on the conversion, how did you mount the engine, move foreward for cam angle sensor or what?

[rodhamp]

Yeah the paint is offesnsive... :P But who gives a crap when you have that under the hood! Mags look okay to me :) So sick of the sight of standard mags on my car.. Good work all round, you will have to get some interior shots up...

Hey Mick! Its a small world mate, I took a photo of your car in the same spot yesterday (hope you don't mind! ) if thats where you live, then I'm just up around the corner on Ripley dude. Your car is gorgeous, and I don't mind the two tone look at all, its very unique!

If you see a white JB cruising around the same area, give me a wave! :beer

Nice vr4 conversion. :)

I see you kept the VR4 waterpump & powersteering.

How did you do the plumbing for the coolant?

[STARZILA]

Hey....Thats the narrow block isnt it?
vr4 alt and powersteer still there???????

[Mick]

hey rainey yeah i live just on the corner of cheviot drop in sometime for a can and chat!

[Mick]

hey evoJB thanks mate,
yeah the engine was mounted froward just enough to squeeze the crank sensor in without abusing the firewall.

[Mick]

thanks rodhamp sorry about the paint it'll be gloss black with gold blue pearl soon enough!
when you need wheels let me know you can have them. :beer

[Mick]

hey stealth gsr that the standard vr4 turbo but with custom turbine housing and dump.

[Mick]

hey xentro the inlet manifold was reversed so the ic plumbing was easier and the thermostat is sitting on the other end out of view

[redzone]

hey mate that flat black is sweet as!

i reckon u should put a STEALTH BOMBER sticker on the back window

did u use the 4AGE remote thermostat housing arrangement?

[Mick]

hey redzone hows it?

glad somone likes the satin...
i have no idea about the thermostat arrangement at all mate i bought the car with the conversion done, and although i managed to pick his brain about a lot of stuff i missed that one.
is that a common setup to use?
will come in handy no doubt is there anything you guys dont know? :beer

[Rainey]

I'll drop in next time I've got the Staz out Mick! I'm currently removing the cracked front lip and painting my wipers black again (previous owner thought they would look great in white ).

I'm a fan of the paint scheme as well, I think it looks great and suits the car. Who does most of the work on your car or where do you take it to work on it yourself because my driveway is angled like a bitch, no good for jacking shit up. :?

[Mick]

yeah sucks ay rainey got the same problem mate :beer

do all the usual oil changes and shite myself but when something needs doing i take it down to truline suspension in charles street they're really good and do pretty much everything.

i've seen your rig down at villiage cinema carpark before?

come down next time you've got her out!
