Re: my colt/galant A51
Looking good.
Please fit some wider rims to this bad boy? Get you inners fitted in wider outers, please...
Then you can still fit these sexy looking new caps.
We NEED pix then this. You've been quite on this for to long. Your last pix were September WTF?
Start it without extractors, it looks mad with flames coming out of the exhaust ports

What sort of pump are you running ? If it's an appropriate (ie. low pressure) pump to suit the carbs, then you shouldn't need a regulator (they just reduce flow volume !)colta51 wrote:i just got to get a fuel reg and fit my elec fuel pump
If the carbs are jetted correctly for the motor already, a dyno tune isn't expensive (most decent tuning places will do it on a dyno anyway) and will give you a better result than a static tune. The potential cost is in the multiple runs/time required to get the jetting right ...... but it's really the only way to do it !time for tune up and if i'm feeling rich any time soon i might even get it done on a dyno?
Re: my colt/galant A51
Can you do me a favour and take some pix of you boot hinges (how they attach to the boot lid). I'm curious as to whether it has isolators fitted to be used as an antenna? If so you can get rid of your broken antenna and use that instead...
Or see how you go getting a set of Bathurst Mk1's for it. Like on Guylant's GB
Dave...
Get a price for widening them. Aren't sports pack rims only GE Sigma rims?colta51 wrote:do you think its worth getting sports pak rims? or maby i just get these ones widend?

Re: my colt/galant A51
Those wheels are HAYASHI R ST and are not cheap, about $500+ per rim. They do look sweet though and would look wild on a GA with some stretched tyres say 15x8's with 195/40's

Re: my colt/galant A51
my fuel pump is mounted above the rear axle on the passengers side
fairly easy to get to and plenty of room,
i assume that ga/gb 's have the same room that gc/gd 's have
