 Nice
Don't you just love it when speakers of the same size are different sizes  |

They leaves usable space on the parcel shelf, which I can now fit my overnight bag on and as for the sound?

Absolutley forking awesome, why this has not been done before amazes me.
OK its not a Capgun sound system but for practicality and being able to finaly fit some decent speakers at the rear this is a huge winner.
I dont think I may even need the powered sub now and yes it makes that much difference.
Sneaza, get ready for some requests for these as I am sure you will. (Dont forget my commission.) |

Yep typical, but the ones I fitted are probably not a normal sort of 6 1/2 inch speaker. |

From all the ones I've tried there doesn't ever seem to be a normal 6 1/2 inch speaker  |

Very Nice.....I guess I'll have to make the Holes a little Larger...lol....didn't think about it as the Peerless Mids I tried didn't have the Crossover attached and the Hole was actually bigger than the Sony....  Glad it worked. |

Looks very neat and factory!  Those (jaycar or pioneer?) kevlar speakers are great value for money surpassing more expensive speakers. |

1. Yes some sort of hoist or lift is on the wish list. Just put a new shed up at christmas with enough height for one.
2. Yep all of the parts as well.
3. One cappo will be restored to completely stock and a second one will be a crazy cappo.
I still am deciding which one will be which but at the moment I am thinking of making the red one stock and making KOF33 crazy.
Bucause you guy's have most of the cappo's in Sydney & Melbourne I thought I would have my own cappo meet...LOL. |

OK I have decided to keep the red one stock and original and make KOF33 crazier.
I will start a new thread for the red one but first I need a name which is a bit of a debating point at home.
The family (wife) suggestions are as follows.
LAT33 (LATTE)
XPR20 (Expresso)
OND33 (Wifes nickname Ondree becomes Ondee)
The 33 (EE) is to keep it in the family with KOF33 (Coffee) and plates out here with 3 letters and 2 numbers cost heaps less ($ 440.00) than all letter ones which are over $ 2,000.00 AUD.
Whats the vote?
What do you guy's reckon? |

While LAT33 has been getting all the attention lately it was time for a bit on KOF33.
So out with the front suspension and in with new stuff.
Removing the old suspension bushes with oxy and threaded rod.
They are a b*gger to get out but I found that if you heat the metal suspension arm with oxy you can push/pull the old bushes out with threaded rod and nuts without to much trouble.
If the bush starts to smoke its too hot so you have to cool it down again and restart. |

Hey Grant. I think I would vote 1. for LAT33 and 2. for XPR20
What are the rotos you are using? Where did you get them from? Are they larger then factory size?
How do you find the Suzuki Sport Coil overs? Im looking at options nowm but I dont want to go too low or too hard.
Thanks mate. Keep it up! |

^ The rotor's are made by RDA Australia and are standard size but slotted.
Suzuki Sport have 3 types of coilovers and these are the top of the line set which are fully adjustable for damping and height.
I wont know how it drives for a while yet as I have a lot of other parts to fit first and KOF33 wont be on the road for another month or two.
I want to adjust the coilovers to lower the car about 20 to 25mm though. |

Been pretty busy for the last few months with a holiday in China, ongoing home reno's and an exchange student from Germany arriving for a 3 month stay, so havent had much time to work on the Cappo's until now.
Here's a pic of the motor that will be going into KOF33.
Completely rebuilt with a port job, Various Suzuki Sport bits and pieces, stainless steel exhuast header ready to bolt a new upgraded turbo (RHB31FW) on. |

Ok the motor is in and fitted.
Started basically first go after I cranked it with the fuel pump disconnected and plugs out to get the oil pressure up first.
Bummer though as the alternator is not charging even after I fitted new brushes and the dash light is on.
Oh well out comes the alternator |

Not at those prices!
I have some spare alternator parts left over from when I had to repair/replace the green cappo's one.
Once I get it back out and see what's wrong I should be able to repair it. |

All going well now running in the new motor. Up to about 650KM basically running stock boost. I will wait until I get about 1,000KM on it, change the oil and then should be able to up the boost a fair bit.
Anyway heres a new addition. Anyone recognise this? |

Long weekend for the Queen's Birthday last weekend so I decided to knock up an under body brace.
I guess I have been spurred on by the guy's in the UK.
Due to the low ground clearance of KOF33 which is now about an inch lower than standard I decided agaist round or square bars and after consulting with son No.1 (Final year Mechanical Engineering & Aerospare) the decision was made to fabricate it from 30 x 3mm flat steel bar.
We figure that to brace the tunnel the best way was to use flat bar to stop any twisting forces.
Probably totally wrong but here it is on a temporary jig made useing galvanised bar tack welded together. |

| The galvanised steel bar is a b*stard to weld neatly but came up quite good after the final welds were cleaned and ground down. |

The finished product was coated with cold galvanising zinc rich paint then a final coat or two of silver.
Why silver? Just because I had a spare can in the workshop. |
