  1. Already in 15 in Trinidad, happy new year to all! Philippe.
  2. I get the same problem, it is time to change the bushing on the upper and lower links and the panhar bushings as well. I wish Rob was next door... . Ph.
  3. Black and silver... Hummmmm... Pics!! I'll follow your thread, seem to be very interesting. Thanks. Philippe.
  4. Today I was entering Port Of Spain and of course there was a traffic jam... instead of getting aggravated, I was thinking to all these great guys fixing great cars on NPORA when I noticed that, I wanted to share it here. Philippe.
  5. We like to see pics too and I want to know if it is more colorful than mine...
  6. No A/C, I feel like a stew in the tropical rain :-)

  7. I had this very hard 1-2 shift on mine until I changed fluid and filter. That solved the problem. Ph.
  8. Second day home with a virus, looked at the terry in the garage, I'll enjoy the next drive.

  9. Put two new michelins in the back, got them all balanced and front alignment done. Much better. I also realized that I need to inspect the rear axle and list the needed parts for Rob. It never ends... Philippe.
  10. Posted my Gingie pic enjoying the terry for the 100th post
  11. Where I am, without Rob, my terrano would be in a scrapyard today. Rebuilt and re installed my starter yesterday. Philippe.
  12. one of my high beam was not working and i left it like this as i was not ready to spend the time to find the problem until i took my car for the (kind of slack) inspection we have here. They gave me time to do the repair. Luckily, some days after, I read the above. It took me half an hour to fix the problem this afternoon. Thank to you both for the posts, it helped me today. Philippe.
  13. MRJIM, Really sorry to hear this, this is a piece of history for all of us and I hope for the best end. Could someone or something send a massive bastards cleansing on earth and take all them parasites. Philippe.
  14. No need for contact when you have superpower Watch out for the zombie attack...
  15. Looks like you have a quality controller home too Philippe
  16. Sometime you have to Rob. Better you choose when. Ph.
  17. About the color, it is right that it looks a bit like an indian festival... but this was not the inspiration. Years ago when I first bought my terrano (late 2006), I was thinking to gradually bring it up to standard using the local mechanics. Mistake. I then decided to do repairs myself. As you all have noticed when you buy a white car, the white engine bay make it easy to work inside. when you have a black car the light you have to have to see anything inside maybe develop some comfortable heat during a winter sunday, but certainly become a nightmare in the tropics. This is when I started to paint the bay silver. The first job i did was on the heads and I painted the covers plus some protection and other in the color I found on the shelf at the time. The choice was between blue ford and this red. The yellow came after when I got new nissan upper arms, already rusty. When I did the block, i used silver (like the heads aluminum) not to add a fourth color. The advise I would give if anybody was tempted, make you choice at once. Silver is the one which will make the work in the engine bay much easier. Other than that I generally like to be unnoticed, low profile, invisible... I missed this time. . Philippe.
  18. Luckily they did the same mistake with the seat and the wheel... Ph.
  19. Finally guys she is back home after the engine rebuild. The engine runs beautifully and it is a lot of fun to drive. You all suppliers and specially Rob "Alkorahil" thank you for your help, without you it wouldn't be possible to do such a repair. You guys in the US who have access to overnight delivery do not know how lucky you are. Here it takes weeks to get the parts in hand. I took these pics in the yard this afternoon so that you can enjoy. Philippe.
