he all here is my 1200 ute.

I have put some magroad 13x7's on it, and gone back to the original
steering wheel and gear knob.

First drive out to lakeside on saturday was a real bugger as she overheated something shocking.

made it in the end.

however I have since found that there where no fins left on the water pump
so hopefully that will fix it

Nice wheels watts are the best!

If you lower it all round would look great
What are planning to do to thr motor ?

Nice tidy little ute ,keep up the good work

Good start for a clean daily or project, any further plans?
Slam it on those Wat's

Cheers for the comments!
Yeah I do love the wheels, i agree it does need some lowering though.
not a lot of joy on the overheating today, even with the new pump
seems like the rad needs replacing.
Anyone have a good source for an ally one?

took it down to harry's diner tonight (fitted in with some of the cars), there was another greeny/yellow ute down there too.
Not sure who's it is, pretty cool though.

As far as the motor is concerned, a 1400 would be good with some injection and a 5spd.
otherwise maybe inject the 12a and chuck on a 5spd.

Front struts with disks is the first job though, drums ar entertaining to say the least.

B

there is decent ones on ebay for around $250 but the inlet/outlet are on the wrong side, need to make up a couple 90 degree bends to fit the hoses

Nice Magroads/weds

About time someone bought those they've been on there since last year.

The rubber looks a little puffy what profile tyres are they? I found some 165/65's weren't a bad fit and they cost almost half the price of the 175/50's (which are much better I must admit!).

Sweet looking ride, RE the overheating you might just want to flush your radiator, if the impeller has lost it's blades then it sounds like you have some hardcore rusty water in there. Take out the radiator shake it up and flush it with the garden hose, see how much crap comes out.

Check your thermostat as well to see that's it's doing what it should do.

Use some decent coolant and you should be good again.

Sweet ride.

It sounds like a B210 rad might be the go, but I'll keep an eye out for something
that may work on the bay.

clyons8: they are 165/60 Nankangs. pretty cheap at 80 a tyre. probably not the best performers, but that cool as
there is not a great deal of HP there.

Hey Guys, Has anyone ever used a gemini radiator?
This one might just fit.

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/56mm-3-core-al ... em45f996b49a#ht_943wt_905

Also I don't suppose any of you guys know of a set of 120y struts up for sale?
I am also after a 5spd box, what boxes fit the a12 engine?

Ok so I managed to get some time over the weekend to get my new radiator fitted.
I decided to go with an el Cheapo aluminium radiator off the bay, its designed for a
gemini.

It was quite a bit larger than the little 1200 number, but fitted in the front without any issues. Rather than cut anything on the front I just made up some adapter brackets
that came out quite nice.

I also never had to put any electric fans in as it cleared the standard fan quite nicely....I may do this at a later stage though.

The hoses where a bit of a mish to find due to the rad input and outlet being in a different spot, but managed to find something that worked.

Runs nice and cool now - Stoked!
