Special price?

Just saw this. Might try and blend in to come say hi?

That's so awesome!

I like it. (waits to get beaten like the wimpy kid at the play ground). I'm quite surprised that the front end can get away with looking like that though, cos just thinking about impact requirements etc.

All this excitement. Has it docked yet?

Good couple of posts. Thoroughly enjoyed

Can't make it got training. Poo. Was hoping to fap over the Datsun again as haven't seen in ages.

I love this thing!

Will MR2 ones work? I can't remember if I had a set or if I binned it, but if I do, you can measure, and if they work, swaps for a chocolate sundae.

+1 for vents and black block

I fail at life. By the time I was done with comp, you guys were leaving haha. Half way through and I had to turn around cos you guys all drove past me. My bad

Haha I thought it was an ornamental fork till I saw you chuck it in your boot. I had a chuckle haha. 

Oh man just looked at the map where this is haha its quite far in! I shall be there (might be late though but gonna try my hardest)

Hey I'll try to remember to bring you that lamp.

 

Try to remember to bring me $20 please.

 

Thanks!

I like lamp. 

Roger that catpeen. In wallet right now.

Yay I can actually make this!

Ah yusss this thing is still alive. Good to see it going. Keen to see what you do with it. 

I have nothing here to add except sweet car! /lingout

My vote too is for a blade. I loved the one I drove.

Oh my I do love me some KE25 goodness!

vivaspeed, I won't be at this meet man. Any chance I could pick up the lamp from you sometime in the weekend mate?

Goddamn I want a hello kitty numberplate for the Crown.

Heat coat the mani? We put a bunch of heat shields and reflective gold foil on a mates car that helps with heatsoak. I'll be doing this to the MR2 as well.

Snitch is good. And you get GPS too. Kill switches wont stop thieves towing it away.  Best bet is to have a combo of everything. GPS for tracking your car from pros, and kill switches from stopping lil Jonny joyriders.

So finally after about 3 weekends of not getting the time required to work on my own car, we finally got the car lowered and the wheels on in the Crown. 

Went up to Pick a Part with one of the rear springs as a measuring guide to see what would work for the rear. Scouring the truck and van lines meant that the springs either were too short, or not wide enough. Finally scored a piece of gold in the form of rear springs from an AU coon. Perfect fit.

Jammed it in, didn't even need "modification" and it was bang on 100mm and captive! Rolled the car out, and a bunch of big boned mates jumped in the back for a test drive. 

Rode smooth as silk, but it needs a bit of rebalancing as there is a bit of a shake at 100k. And cos the car is underwheeled and undertired, speedo is out by about 10k. But it looks perfect and is exactly the look I was hoping for. We then waxed and cleaned the whole car, and I got to be OCD and cleaned up all the chrome bits and started polishing the wheels. 

This picture was when the back was full of wheels and tools, so the rear is lower, but when all the crud was removed, it sits bang on even! So stoked

Then popped home, did some more cleaning and whacked on some tire shine just to complete the car and yay, it doesn't look like a sack anymore!

If it doesn't interfere with grading, i'll come for some lulz.
