-Boz- Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Suspension is sorted No more rubbing on the guards, not bottoming out on every bump on the road. Hooray! 12mm increase has made ALL the difference!

Bunta Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Suspension is sorted No more rubbing on the guards, not bottoming out on every bump on the road. Hooray! 12mm increase has made ALL the difference! I need to go visit those dudes for an alignment some time soon as well, how much did the new bushes set you back?

-Boz- Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 All up it was $900ish. That included the new bushes, alignment, adjustable camber arm and getting them to raise the suspension slightly. I've got an itemised invoice in the car, will check it later and let you know the price for each bit. Friendly guys, great service. Car feels completely different and is a lot more confidence inspiring now that I'm not constantly worried about it bottoming out and scraping the guards/front bar.

sneakey pete Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Dealer finally came through and fixed the aircon today. Which is good. However I think i'm getting some kind of cold (unrelated to aircon), which is bad. Sigh.

PWND Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Saw your post on faceparty. What was the damage? Got done over at Indroopilly BP, the one just across the road from KFC, out the front of Myer. Pulled into the petrol station, and as I pulled up noticed that there was an undercover car filling up as well. Started screaming in my head as I calmly started filling up. Sure enough, within seconds, the chick cop that wasn't filling the car up wanders over, tape measure in hand already, and starts asking about the roll cage. At this point I was still hopefull that she was merely trying to find out whether I was built proportion all round but I was bitterly dissapointed when she started measuring the height of the car. She then asked me to pay for the fuel and pull the car up just up ahead, out of the way. Listed: car too low wheels too wide roll cage not plated no rear seats number plate not mounted properly aftermarket steering wheel with no padded centre She then said they were going to get in contact with another officer who knew the laws around modified cars a bit better, and also go check my licence... At this point, not a happy camper, as I was informed that this would be a court appearance. When she came back, said that I seemed like a nice guy, and if my driving record checked out, they would let me go if I agreed to have the car towed home, as she couldn't allow me to drive the car home in its current state. Farken hell yes. She said that I had to get the car mod plated for the cage and rear seats and to fit different wheels. She said she wasn't sure about the steering wheel, but recommended getting a rcw place to check it out. Called RACQ, had the car towed home, and organising an engineer to come give me a mod plate for the cage and two seat conversion. So, overall was a bit of a hassle waiting an hour for the tow truck, but way better than having to go to court and have the entire car inspected.

I live near there and I am always extra cautious due to the number of cops you see around with three stations in a couple of blocks (well two and the police beat.) At least she was nice enough not to f**k you up about it all.
