Why LPG on a Diesel unless you are plumbing it into the turbo

20% more power or economy..thats why..(me 4 door nissan 6 pot turbo diesel powered, runs it too...its like it has 8 cylinders when switched on!!)
really only works wonders with old school non ecu controlled diesels...

todays (read 2 hrs after work)efforts...

Is that direct into the air inlet?

zen · Feb 12, 2013

I've got a pair of RRC 4 door front seats that I could part with think they're from the 80's though so not quite the same but the cloth looks about right if of any use

Dr_evil · Feb 13, 2013

**** just realised yours have a belt inside the seat thing, mines don't have the cover they bolt onto the side and have a pocket in fabric on the rear

zen · Feb 13, 2013

shame...thanks anyway..

fanatic · Feb 13, 2013

what about re upholster

zen · Feb 14, 2013

be too much...its the back thats the bitch...

looks like i will be learning to use a leather needle in sewing machine...no point in trying to get teddy bear fabric..no hope..

so all the seats cream leather..have to be diy ..cost..

stutab · Feb 14, 2013

This is the best pic I got. They are buried at the mo but if you want better pics I can take some tomorrow. I agreed on the EFI today so as long as the seats can be salvaged these are up for grabs. Any bits you want off the EFI let me know.

kool

does it have front quarter lights (windows)

are the seats grey??

anyway

todays efforts....

got the rear seat in..what a barstard!!it had been put in wrong place by po..so had no original holes to line it up with..took hours to get just right..

started (run out) to rust proof inner panels so i can blt on outers..

started on front wings..

stutab · Feb 16, 2013

Yes they are grey.

Which windows do you want?

The windscreen is no good, which is a shame as I need one.

fett · Feb 16, 2013

neither are the windows for him , he wants the front quaterlights I think and thats too late to have them

stutab · Feb 16, 2013

Ye solid front windows. I know the bits he means now.
