Nice trolling. @KKtrips

You are doing a great job tidying up this scruffy TVR @kws Well done, and thanks for the write-ups. Very informative.

Good plan!

Keen for Thursday 18th!

Lower hinge area is a double skinned piece Inner reinforcing section first Then the outer part

Continuing on the door pillar, lower section Inner guard area first Then the pillar structure, piece by piece

They should just make the auto <-> manual swap a cert item full stop.

Have you considered a 2ZZ?

Getting ready to run the work FB page????

If you do all of that, you are looking at crossmember 80mm of the ground, is that right? Technically you can get certed for less than 100mm ride height, but my understanding is that it's hard/unlikely. Also have to look at what happens if you get a flat tyre, make sure nothing hits the ground. Can you cut up the crossmember and reduce it's size while replacing the strength? /4-link the rear and airbags.

same same same Who'd be a WOF inspector anyway?

So long as you clear these hurdles, there is no mention of a lift limit. But as per the prior discussion, make sure the coils/shocks are a direct replacement. https://vehicleinspection.nzta.govt.nz/virms/in-service-wof-and-cof/general/steering-and-suspension/steering-and-suspension-systems

So, if they are catalogued as lift springs for a 1998 Impreza, and are fitted to a 1998 Impreza, and all other thresholds are OK, then they should pass WOF?

Same for me now. Google direct links work for a little while, then get broken. @zep it works better if you upload the pics to the forum.

Can I fax you my engine for a rebuild anyway?

You are doing everything wrong.

The car is better than the house f'sure.

Not in kiwiland, maybe in wales.

Lighter is better. Ask Colin Chapman.

@ajg193?

Hako owner cries poor. Morris badges are cheap eh? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Morris-Minor-Chrome-Side-Bonnet-Badge-MINOR-1000/333580067891

Best solution is not to let your sheet metal get rusty in the first place @tortron
