Thanks man, do you know which photo it was on specifically? or the Dealers name?

Here is the comment i saw this morning

'Michael Coleman ‎@ Kyle Icely It definitely has not sold out. Media is misinformed. There is still a few available. [email protected]

It's the most recent picture detailing the pricing with the red 86 picture

Yeah found it, thanks mang

In other news, got 26 days to buy all the shit I need for work (tools etc) so I can claim em in this years return lol

Lol Dezzmang with his billion receipts gonna cause me my first ATO in over 800 clients.

(not srs)

(semi-srs)

really diggin this type of canopy, looks pricey though

I found those pointless for a canopy though, you lose about half the space of a box canopy for a little bit of fuel economy, which would be sfa anyway. Even more pointless if your running muddies on the car too

looks good rimon, arb good quality just claim it on tax? (can you?)

Sure if its used for work. It will be claimed over its effective life rather than outright.

win

Saw a Navara at work with a similar setup, looked good

only ever seen it once on a white hilux outside ARB on mahoneys rd. stands out

more so for the styling than practicality. less space than box canopy but more space than just hard cover so good compromise imo

only downside is the glass top. hail storm = byebye canopy

This Navara looked alright...Had like a Hummer style grill too, didn't know what car it was at first lol

It had a Derrimut gym sticker on the back, so it's from around my area I'm guessing...If I see it at work again or at gym I'll get a photo

yeah see in that case it's making me prefer the box canopies even more because they are fiberglass too

at a guess I would say those glass ones are heaps more expensive too, just doesn't seem worth it

get price too kthx

i'm seeing a rediculous amount of mini "moster truck" spec'ed pick ups on the road these days. must be the new thing. only a matter of time before they start putting flutterz in em lol

i'll see if they make em with a hard top instead of the glass. box canopy just makes it look like a landcruiser :/

I think it's he kind of car you'd use as a daily and on the weekends through the twisties - all the journalists who have driven it seem to rave about the handling and how the power is sufficient, so maybe it's not that bad to drive. I've driven slow cars before with tough little engines and they are very fun despite being slow. It'd be no traffic light hero, but the thing will keep pace in the corners. Still, crossing fingers they put that turbo FA20 from the Legacy GT into it...

    • For these last 7 years of ownership, I've always had to use a small scissor jack under one of the front tow hooks to raise the front just enough so my low-profile jack fits under to reach my subframe jack point. I'm beginning to get annoyed of always having to do this. Are there any lower low-profile jacks that fit under the gtr lip on a dropped car?
    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
