there we go andrewT thats the best i got for ya today. was redoin the Passanger seat as errrr...well some ppl can guess and some ppl who sat in it will no...LOL

those spacers wuld be good to only be half the size (heightwise) but that was all i culd find in the shed and i am stingy and dont liek spending money

the passenger side also needed a spacer or it wuldnt slide back as the knobs and stuff on left were interfering with some fo the existing parts of the car...and thats all i cna be bothered typing

also heres a pic taken today.

Number plates cost a hell of a lot less than over east from what ive heard

at just under $400 (no yearly fee for them either, and they also have attracted some attention from other roadusers

)

Yep drivers seat (and passenger as its same setup) can still move around wherever you need it (with the extra height adjustment that the Lib seats have) but you have to put them on properly otherwise it wont bolt up into the car and/or the Front/rear adjustment wont move if its out of alignment.

Got a few extra things in it nowadays.

5 Speed DR Lseries box.
3 guages roof mounted (MY dashboard isnt suited to having gauges ontop of it)
Black rims on rear as old paint on them was coming off everywhere and just wanted to see how they looked (certain people reckon Black rims look 'cheap' and that you cant afford hubcaps

but the Black looks awesome)
3 inch's of lift.
Roobar with some decent spotties on

need some nice tyres when i stop getting $700+ bills sent out to me.

maybe an update is needed?

now sporting 15 inch rims, and 235/75 R15 Tyres (basically 29" tyres), with the only scrubbing being on the rear flares.

to help with the tyres its running Lseries control arms, Custom Radius Rods, chopped up guards, Lseries Driveshafts,hubs, Brakes and a mix and match of steering tierods to suit the differences in the hubs compared to the MY ones.

a couple of semi-recent pics.

Hopefully ill get to test her out on some Dunes in the next few weeks. so far its been only pines work but all impressions thus far of the change of tyres and new clearance are GREAT.

also still drives nicely onroad and has a lot of acceleration still. enough for me anyways.
