  1. struts arent that hard actually you can get special bags that go over the strut, drop me a pm if you want more info on it
  2. well i got a lot of stuff at mates rates, plus i did a lot of the work myself. depending on what your after, your looking at bout 3500 for the bag kit, and anywhere from 2000 up for the install, depending on how low you want to go. the back is quite easy to bag but the front is quite hard if you want it to go real low, plus you have to re-locate the shocks which im still working on because there is bugger all room left to re mount them without getting in the way of the wheel.
  3. yea iv always wanted to do it black but then i gota paint inside the doors and engine bay and all that carry on. ill see how motivated im feeling at the time haha.
  4. yea the sprinklers were an option, i was looking at some pop up ones with neons in them, cool aye. yea the later model crowns came out factory bagged, but aparently they fuk out heaps and new bags from toyota are bout $2000 a corner, ouch.
  5. probaly just paint it the same colour ay, looks quite nice in the rain when the water fills all the cracks haha. I am open to suggestions for colour tho. Oh and methodz100, these arent bagged standard, i wish!! im just running 1 tank and compressor and 3/8 line and valves
  6. I Was bored and thought id put a few pics of the old girl up. Its a 1975 toyota crown deluxe, i bought it standard with a blown auto and converted it to manual. Then proceeded to get it a testing station wof before trailering it up to auckland and getn air bags put in it just before xmas. Was a good cruiser over the new year, but i made the mistake of not watching the road while driving with down quite low and managed to smash my gearbox x member quite badly. managed to press it back into shape (sort of) and sorted another gearbox mount (as the original one split) from a later model crown, so it is back on the road, but i am planning a bare metal respray as the paint is absolutely shit house crazy cracked big time. Anyways there it be, will post some better pics when i find them [/img]
