Yeah done all that , it always good to get advice off the locals as they know the best spots at the time , around Queanbeyan some of the fishing spots that websites say are good DON`T have water at the moment so u never know how good the info is.

It funny ppl that like cars seen to hate fishing. My car mates hate fishing , my fishing mates hate cars

Gus i know of a few spots around the island (depends on where you are planning on going) that i can let you know of.

It all comes down to time of year and if you are going to be up north or south of the state.

Do you know ANY spots at all you plan on checking out or is it still in the planning stage???

Cheers GMB

Still in the saving and planing stage we hope to get over there November but looks like nobody will have enuff money so maybe March , we want to fish those tailing fish u see on the TV shows, we sort of want to travel around and see as much as possible a few place that are must see are Lake St Clair , pedder and that Lagoon that has the Big Brook trout Penstock I think

When and what lakes do u get those HUGE dun/mayflies hatchers on , as over in the mainland trout don`t rise much we do pretty much all our fishing at night using big wets , great fun in winter when your line and rod ice up.

Sorry I dont have a better idea of spots and times but there is so many lakes . but we only want to catch trout on fly

Would mine to see a few Tassie lines to u dudes must have a mad time on those roads

At Lake St. Clair, you cant go wrong. Theres a spot that involves a decent walk, probably a good hour or so up the Mt. Rufus track, theres a lake called Shadow Lake, which is joined to another thats not named, the un-named lake has a few BIG rainbow trout. Always seek local advice on the weather tho, cause if you get stuck your f**ked up that way

    • Maybe it's time for a M3 F80 LCI, and leave it stock.  Drive it to a shop, sip on your latte with nutmeg whilst it gets serviced and on the way home swing by and grab some chai mix for the evening.
    • Great work! Thanks for documenting the process.
    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
