What wheels are these from?

Anyone know what model these wheels are from? I bought them when they were on another City Pro T, but im pretty sure they're not Aus-spec City 13's. I have a feeling they're from a Turbo or Cabriolet City. Any confirmation, correction, appreciated. Thanks! http://www.cityturbo.com/gallery/albums/Tr...

Exhaust Manifold Swappability?

Can a City turbo exhaust manifold bolt up to an NA carby City to adapt a City turbo's turbo to an atmo City? Or would it require custom manifold?

Re: All For A Carby

Well, just for anyone interested, i got my engine and all the parts back. Turns out they were able to clean up the pistons and they tested them for hardness and cracks all round and they look like they will be reusable, with all new rings, bearings and seals/gaskets. They machined the blockface and ...

I mustve dropped a washer into the inlet manifold in the process, and unfortunatly paid the high price, for when i cranked her over i had a horrible knocking ...

Re: Top speed of the T2

I fairly started to run out of road though and 5th gear has pretty much no acceleration... ive later heard that you get a higher top speed in 4th. also, remember the torque factor of such a low cap...
