HAHA, yeah it's seeming that way but it flew through engineering tonight....$400 poorer but I should receive the paperwork on Mon or Tue, then I can take that to Welshpool & get the stamp of approval, then just a matter of taking it to the pits for a final inspection, I was really hoping to sell tha...

Another update, I got a letter from the DPI, I have to get engineered so it's booked on for tomorrow night at a place in willeton, i could have put the original suspension back in to get it passed but it could cause insurance problems down the road so there goes another $400 up the pooper, must be o...

Do you mean wheel spacers like this? If so say goodbye to your bearings & I hope whatever you have fitted fits the hub on your axle & the wheel has somewhere to fit onto, the studs only hold the wheel in place, the hub is what takes all the strain so expect to snap a few studs while your bearings ar...

Honestly, ditch the panadol & get panadine it works so much faster, not too sure about the coffee thing as I used to drink a lot of coffee & coke, haven't had any for about 2yrs because caffeine gives me bad heart palpitations (another subject lol) god I miss it, and I've noticed no difference in fr...

I've found that Codeine helps a lot more than paracetamol hence "Panadine" it's in my family too but I'm the only one not allergic to Codeine lol.

Yeah I know I should have gone to Warwick, about 6 years ago I saved one of the inspectors fathers life up at Lancelin & he's been really helpful on other occasions, I only went to E Perth because the boss (Graham) at the time came out to my ex g/f's place and checked all the welding etc after the r...

Yeah especially when the hi/lo's fitted with the front LSD & hopefully 4.1 ring & pinion in it, can't wait to do a run with you guys..........oh and the huge bash plate. lol I may have to stick a smaller turbo on it as the stock TD05 may be a bit laggy, just have to see how it goes, it's got a pile ...

Yeah I've been getting them for the last 35yrs but mainly they are caused by stress & pretty rare though I've had 2 in the last couple of weeks, I can go for years without one then bang..........I usually get about a 5min warning when things I look at have a blind spot, provided I gulp 3 panadine or...

Nah Corry no idea on the time frame for the mods, it was the wankers attitude at the pits, he didn't even stand close enough to the car to check the lights or the angle as it was over the pit so I just reversed it back & ripped the whole swing arm with wheel off in one hit as it's easier than undoin...

Small update........I took the car to the guys at Welshpool mod dept as I had to go there to take the forms in, they passed the wheel carrier "just" so I've wasted forty odd dollars on led lights & the lift blocks were no problem but they are still considering the GD control arms & Foz struts, hopef...

Thanks for the info, now all I have to do is hope the asshats in the modification department at the rta will pass the fact that I have put Foz struts & GD WRX alloy arms in it, the lift blocks are no problem they passed the spare wheel carrier which they failed when I took it over the pits because o...

Ah ok, obviously a very different system to my old Landcruiser then, I actually had a 98 hatch with it but I only tried it once & that was only to see what it was like, don't think I'll be wanting to hammer it on the bitumen to much with the turbo but it's good to know I can change on the fly.

As far as I know the box is as stock as a rock so nothing has been changed, sounds like the way to go then, thanks guys. Tom. Hopefully have it regoed next week or the week after, just have to get permission for the 1" rear lift, Foz struts & GD control arms, otherwise it only failed from a loose bo...
