saturday day i am bout to buy a vh injected 5l commy then my mech said not to for a few reasons then me thinks ohh yeh that sr20de ute on here was still for sale better ring up
rang up still for sale, so i left on sunday morning 5am from sydney with 2 mates to head down to check her out.
checked it all over picked it up for $6900
seem pretty happy cept that on about 90kph the motor is doin 3000rpm in top gear ( 5speed) with stock diff
and seemed to be fair high up on temperature ay like 3/4 up its got a commy radiator but the motor is a tight fit so lacking in air volume around motor. is there anything im missing here like the radiator is full of coolant ( mixed up ofcourse) and stil runs a lil hot...
that and the speedo is roughly double wat im actually doin who knew it was 650kph from qeenbeyan to sydney? hahaha
neway so im thinking bout buying another diff centre ( lower ratio to bring down the rpm of the motor make it more highway friendly) wat diffs should i be lookin at for parts?
and is there sumthign wrong with the raditor being so hot? liek any common problems thermostat( ohh its got a thermo fan not huge tho)
pics are in the photo album dont no how to post on the forums yet ay, can sum1 tell me?
