Greg,
My engines a new higginbottom one, I hated to do it, but when the other one spat it I just didn't have time, and they swapped em in a day, if it had happened in 6 months time I would have done it myself cheaper, or just thrown in a 4AG/4AGZE.
Of all those problems I mentioned I'm down to the ...

Well,
I've just bought one and got seriously burnt, so here goes:

BODY

Rust
- Around the windscreen, pretty easy to see but have a closer look, pull rubber out of the way all the way around the glass just to see the extent of the rust. I saw rust anf thought its a small bubble I'll fix ...

Darren,
Fair enough, I guess the 20V is fine, but I would still say the GZE is the better option bit better value for money. I didn't mean there would be any issues with power, you've replaced a pretty low powered 1.3, of course its gunna go better everywhere in the rev range.
But for off road ...

Gutless,
I agree the 4AG series of motor is definately the way to go, but I would give the 20V a miss, they're like driving a 2 stroke, I think peak power is up around the 6-7k mark, a lecturer at my uni put one in a lotus 7 for hill climbing and he is very dissapointed, he said the GZE would have ...

They probly got it done quick cause they just practiced on mine a couple of weeks ago, do you live around merewether? I wouldn't mind seeing what kind of work I've got instore for myself in doing mine up.

N*A*M/Greg,
I kinda thought that on a limited budget (about $2000 by the way, but thats gotta cover suspension upgrade, lockers (maybe), and finish of fixing the worn out stuff front end steering bushes, bearings, alternator, and some rust) you'd be better off welding the front and lockers on the ...

I'm looking for a few value for money upgrades to a currently stock sierra. I don't want anything too extreme/expensive, I'm thinking suspension (slight raise) and lockers, not really into bodylifts and huge tyres, I've already got enough toys. Just enough to do a little weekend offroad stuff, and ...

Thanks nook,
I rang those guys up $396 for the windcreen frame, I think I'll bog it till there nothing left then start thinking about a replacement.

Just wondering which way to start attacking the rust in my sierra, all the rust is in removable panels eg windscreen frame and windscreen frame supports (soft top).

So do I cut and fill or go to a wreckers and find good condition replacements? I hate trying to fix rust as it often reappears, so ...
