  1. Can anyone recommend somewhere in Auckland?
  2. Looking to see who splits welded 3 piece wheels in Auckland, have tried arrow and Brugar and they wont do it. Possibly an engineer not specific to just wheels would be more cost effective?
  3. hey man any idea if rx60 an gx61 use same engine crossmember? if so any chance you still have a file of the engine mounts you made? any help much appreciated. cheers
  4. suspension is legal, its just because of panhard rod one rear tyre is out past the guard.will be getting green sticker off this weekend. shocks are monroe from vl commodore wagon rear. will definitely be sanding all the primer of an doing body work
  5. decided to sand some of the primer back to see whats underneath, i love how ratty it looks now however the police did not, i knew this was only a matter of time, will be changing wheels back to remove sticker and gettin an adjustable panhard rod made and certification
  6. discuss here //oldschool.co.nz/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=35167
  7. have painted a pair of the 13x8s and put on some nankang 175/50/13s have measured and the offset is -15. They're such a small tyre an have dropped the ride height a lot, not to sure if i'll use the same size on the front yet.
  8. I spotted you leaving panel shop this evening, i was in ratty gemini. car looks awesome an quite low
  9. put other pair of rims on yesterday, will need some guard work in the rear in the very near future. Now to find some smaller rubberbands and do something in the engine department. will most likely do paint last, personally hate the primer but was like this when i purchased it and needs more panel work done before i can think about painting it

Pics from today Joining the masses an doing the widened steel gag, picked up first pair from steel surgeon today and fitted them with gross 175/70/13s for now. They're 13x8 negative heaps offset.

  20. so before i got pink stickered i neglected to mention i broke an axle (night after i had just finished putting cutties in) so heres a few pics of pulling the whole rear subframe out.was so suprised at how easy it was (thanks to mr phillip weston for online refrences) and also got these recaro seats tonight which are so mint. going to adapt rails after i get pink sticker off (hopefully by the weekend) still need to reco adjustables and get my bottom brackets put on and change top hat and find another pair to mod for the front. But atleast im getting somewhere after so many failed projects (this is around my 25th car if not more)
  21. yeeeeeehaw TURBO!! interested to see how you go at trackday, im keen to attend one but i keep breaking things
  22. picked these up today ,they're tein s13 fronts with camber plates im planning on adapting to use for the rear, quick measurements show that they should be perfect for the rear with mid adjustment having the car as low is it is on the cut springs. they do need a reco so anybody with information on that or whos done it let me know!!
