Well if i can do that that would be awesome, do i tell vicroads that i replaced the parcel shelf with a normal unaltered one? cause they might think i'm trying to pull a shifty or something :D

i dont mind all the other costs, but the price of an engineers certificate really rubs salt in the wound :P

heartbrkr : Yep they most certainly did write down get wheels aligned. which is fair, because the part of the tyre that was bald, was very bald. The rest was at about 75% so i didnt think about looking at the inside part.

foznice: They just poped the boot, and looked at the upper roof area not sure exactly what they found, but the policeman said, "it looks like they had to cut some peices out to fit the speakers in, if you had an accident that could effect the crash somehow if it breaks easier than it should ect plus effect insurance if it were investigated"

Those arnt exact words but the general gist.

I actully learnt quite alot from that night.

INASNT: I got pulled over by a normal TMU car, i cant read the guys handwriting.

it looks like 'N.Halleit' but anyway, then they called down two of the more popular knox district police members that drive an unmarked silver ford. i don't need to say their names. :D

But in all fairness, they wernt pricks about it, they explained everything when i asked so i don't know what people have against them..

They do their jobs well! which is bad for me :P

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
