Thought it was time for alittle update on the matter

well I Haven't been as busy as I would like been trying to get a apprenticeship(hopefully found one

), and work taking up my time too and not to appossed to painting random things... guy

haha
Any way I bought my thermo Fans, two 10" ones, A Drivers side door cause the old one was giving me shiz, got sum old/new parts from Guy (thanks), the suspension and front bushes. Sits so much better now gotta get the rear done next.
I put yet another light in haha I thought you can never have too many lights camping,
Um bought sum black car deadner paint for the wheel arches to make it abit more newer looking.
I went for alittle 4wd up in the pines and two rock the other day and put a nice big character mark down the side of my car

not to happy bout that but yeah shit happens I suppose.

So just an update, go my honda civic springs this week, popped them in with the 2wd shockies and what a differance it has made

some before and after shots bellow also painted the wheel wells, for protection and looks,
And i though i might just test out the new suspension at... the mud plains again

... thought cc's where a good unit of measure

Yeah that black paint with the yellow lift and spring looks mint. I did it to the front on mine and will do the rear when i get the time

How much was the suspension all up? i want to do it but the crossbred+EJ conversion are taking their toll on the wallet..

Dann · Post by **Dann** » Sun Sep 04, 2011 10:25 pm

haha yeah it's like that with me aswell the wallet isn't liking the subie atm haha, but it was $180 for the per of civic springs, and $280 for the per of 2wd shockies. I still need to do the front mow it's looking like toonga's brumby with the back end high and mighty, haha

What a huge improvement..., Thers some tuff L's being built at the moment in WA. What a cool older subaru gang it would make will Dann's, Wagonman, Paul, mine, Robs, Hatchy, my bro's Brumby, Greg's brumby, stewbaru, Andew's monster and best of all Toonga's lifted vortex:p Can't wait till we all can go out and play.

mmmmm, The person that owns this thread has be posting updates for ages,
I think i'll help him out with that, haha

He's been very exited, because over the last 8 months or so he's been a i quest searching for all the 'necassary parts' like the engine o___O to complete his EJ22 conversion. And finally he has collected the last couple items from his fellow friends, items being a aluminium radiator, and an efi fuel tank and lines.
The date for starting the conversion was set for 12/10/11 which is today but recently he remembered that he was going away for the October long weekend this month, and to have everything done in time working full time, was proving abit difficult, so he is planning it for the week after the long weekend(hopefully), which is the second of the eleventh, two thousand and eleven. More details to come, closer to the date, But he VERY exited to actually be starting it after all this planning.

Any way here are some photographs if the item he got:

Ok guys, just thought i might make it abit different to read rather than the usual post, haha But yeah very exited and stay tuned, blink and you'll miss it,

I think you mean "He hasn't been posting" but we'll forgive him for that.

I'm glad to see you have stepped in Dann and helped out in buying all the bits required for the conversion, those bits are looking great. Those rads work awesome and with Subaru coolant in them, they will last a lifetime (with regular maintenance/servicing). I can't wait to see it out and about

Subaru coolant? Why would you need that as aposed to a normal high end coolant?
