Oh dear!!! The prick that gave me a hard time at E Perth has been transferred there, everyone else hates him so try avoiding a middle aged guy with dark hair, possibly a pom......he doesn't realise there is a bit of grey between black & white...........ASSHOLE!!!!
Good luck.

springs are in, dropped 30mm at the front and 8mm at the rear. I thought the fronts were knackered and that proves it. Will most likely drop a little more once it settles. All the bushes etc are fine and it drives like its on rails. Ill up date you all 2morrow once it goes over the pits.

Don't forget to bring all your paperwork with regards to ownership etc. I guess you must have gotten a receipt and filled out some forms when you purchased the wreck.
I made the mistake of not organising this when I took the RX in, took ages for them to confirm with the previous owner that it had infact been sold to me.

trust me thats all sorted, have put everything in a folder in order from purchase, parts receipts, photo log of repairs followed by receipts for work like springs, wheel alignment/balance etc etc etc and my trade cert and welding codes etc. Im aiming to impress them to help my case:)

Good Luck! and i know how you ended up with one 6mm and one 8mm wiper, subaru did it when they built it. Mines (AUD B4) the same, 8mm drivers side and 6mm passenger side. There must be a reason i guess but stuffed if i can think of one

WTF?????? weird.... Well it passed no worries, the inspection was no more thorough than when i took the orange liberty over the pits. They did find a large crack in the headers that is leaking quite badly. im going to fizz that up when i get back from work.

The bloke was impressed with the overall condition of the car and i think he liked my little folder of bits and pieces:)

off for a drive now:)

wow congrats! top work there!

Now you just need to convince the missus to use it instead of her car so you can keep it

Congrats, good luck selling it cos I'm buggered if I can get rid of my Bug Eye, new forged motor everything & I've dropped from 23g down to 17g over the last 4 months grrrrrrr.
And take seagull up on his offer cos the fastest car he has running atm is the diesel Prado lol.
