i sure was...

the car could possibly be available for $25,000 with a 10sec motor...

But i think when i get my licence back i'm going to have a few problems - insurance cost is through the roof - and i reckon they're gonna try and hit me with the gay no turbo rule... i also have to sell my V8...

But i'm moving back to lower and slower things...

yeah, i will always be here to organise autosalon, will still go on cruises....

Will just be driving a ute instead - it will be in Final Battle thiss year too - privately..

depending on how things work out with these laws, the ute will either be running an SR20DET or an RB25DET...

and yes, the motor is still available...

going mini truckin' eh??

thats a shame!

sell the v8 and keep the line.....!

Yea, used to own a bagged ute - never got in shit from cops - was N/A...

Just all this B/S goin on with imports now is starting to limit what we can and can't do - all most every aftermarket part is illegal!!!

i will be looking to build a 32 GTST track car soon too...

Paul where did you get your front bar from?

Im also selling my line. But not due to cops. Never ever had a problem with cops (touch wood) since i bought it 3 years ago :blink:

If anyone is keen check sig!!

SOLD!!!

Sad to say, but yes, i have sold my car...

I hope that its proud new owner will take care of it as much as i did and that it will go far.

If anyone ever trecks up to Townsville QLD, make sure you keep your eye out for it...

:D

This car was awesome...

Hopefully i still one day get to meet you man

Hey mate, you will get to meet me... i'm still gonna be co coordinating AutoSalon with Doof...

And will also come to a few crusies to see some peoples i haven't seen in over 12 months...

Only difference is i'll be driving a ute

Thanks for your replies guys... it will be sad to see this car go, the amount of time and effort that i have put into every car i have owned has shown in the final product.

I have plenty of plans for my new truck, including - custom tub, air bags, 20's, interior and stereo, and last but not least, a fully built rb25det w/ high mount turbo. Looking for between 250 - 300 rwkw in a RB powered dual cab rodeo Rodeo -

This is my new toy...

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
