Thanks - we like it.

It isn't finished yet - there are still numerous fiddly bits we need to attend to.

It is running a brand new EA82T - currently has less than 100km on the block.

Did you do the rebuild yourself? or got someone else to do it? Thinking mine will need a freshen up in the not to distant future.

My son and I did the rebuild ourselves. He did most of the work - I just lent a hand where necessary. We did pay someone to paint it though.

We have one Subaru and one Honda.

This is our Forester X Weekender (MY05, Delivered April 05):

This is our new Honda Accord V6 Luxury (Delivered September 2008 )

This next photo is of our previous Subaru. Traded it in for the Forester. It is an MY02 Impreza RS.

We lived in Canberra when we had this one, as well as when the Forester was delivered. Now we live in Sydney.

hey what about novacastrians???? any newcastle kids on the block???

Posted: **Fri Mar 12, 2010 6:46 pm**

I am a Novacastrian, ( Morisset - west Lake Macquarie) wouldn't say that I,m a Kid any more though...

, but I enjoy a spirited drive now and then.

Currently have some suspension issues, as I have taken the air suspension off , put 03 liberty GT brakes on and Eibach racing springs. which makes the thing a bit like a go cart. Problem is if I don't drive it hard enough, it actually is a bit unpredictable.

Doing some alterations to make it a bit more drivable.

Used to be around this forum quite a bit, but as there are very few Vortex's here anymore, I frequent an overseas froum instead. Great bunch of people here, but the theme seems to be more 4x4ing these days.

Posted: **Sat Mar 13, 2010 8:16 pm**

yeh quite a bit of 4x4 stuff goes on in here... personally i am trying to mod my 83 MY coupe so it can quickly be change from road go kart to offroad beast with a simple wheel swap and suspension adjustment. last coupe i tried it on rusted away from too much beachwork... but had 0 lift custom arms n rad rods 27" shoes and more clearence then most 4" lifted soobs... then muddy wheels off, pretty wheels on, adjust suspension and she's stiff n low n ready 2 go.... hahaha...
there needs to be more sooby trips around this area, both on and off road...

Just forget the Hunter Valley, plenty of Subys up here including my Brumby

up the knights! i'm a newy boy too (kinda). i'd love to see something organised round here. my mates are always making excuses as to get out of a bit of wheelin'. #sigh#

Im down canberra way but normally end up tagging along behind the land bruisers etc. we used to go out to the brindies but its gotten a bit cold for that now so theres some talk of going the alternate route to the coast!

Posted: **Tue May 11, 2010 10:39 pm**

im from newy to, be good to have a cruise or something always good to see other peoples rides in the flesh.

The forums good to, ive managed to locate an engine for my brumby through a forum member which i prefer a lot more than going to some of the wreckers around here.

Posted: **Thu Aug 18, 2011 8:36 pm**

Gday, I am new to NSW. I have a 89 summerwagon 2inch lift 14's but otherwise stock.
I dont post alot but read heaps on this site. the reason i dont post heaps is because i can often find an existing post on what i need to know. I have rebuilt the ea82 with the help of this forum.
Cheers!
