Ah the wagon off season! tidied up sweet. That parts one looked better than your one

[KKtrips]

Yeah Wagoff season - parts one was tidier outside - but bits of the interior were fucked cos the car had been slept in by some homeless street kids in Marton.

They graffitied all over the headlining and was lol as - the owner said he came back home after a month away and as in drove in the driveway these kids burst out the car and scurried away like cockroaches leaving behind all there stuff..

But meh I like the semi rugedness of mine and the red one was dereged..

Hows the crownizzle? = fred update plz..

[Spencer]

All good, was just stirring regarding that parts wag.

Well over due for an update on mine! lost all the pics on my last camera that got pinched. Will update as soon as Im back its been like 18 months since I have

What ya had done to the motor there mr legend status man? I really got to start doing shiz to my d pillar too, before we know it wagon season will be here and I will have one of those cards that lets you drive legally again.

[KKtrips]

I would like to tell you what I've done to the motor but then I would need to kill you - suffice to say I will be doing number 11's at some rock n roll festivals near you soon...

Sh it thats disturbing

Looking forward to seeing this thing seething around with some 6 cylinder power under the bonnet.

slata black motah in thear mayte?

etc

[KKtrips]

its had 6 cylinders since last November mayte...

Just pulled out the motor to paint it black cos the red was tatty as..

[mikuni]

lol yeah I'm aware of both of above, I remember seeing the startfire past its last legs at Napierboes

But, I haven't had the pleasure of seeing said vehicle with repower. I'm a little bit of a fan of the 202's for sound and torque, just don't think I could bring myself to own/run one. Thats your job

[KKtrips]

ahhh yes - will have said wagon at Hawkes Boes - best you make effort to breakaway from Gizzy..

I will be going flat out all August to get it all done..

[Spencer]

Sweet list. I would do the sound deadening if your keen, doing it to the crizzle. Its not a dort car so may as well be quiet and have good sounds. I'm using the Bostik stuff for starters ( go ask at carters its bitumen stick on sheets), layer of closed cell rubber/foam, then new carpet. If your doing sound deadening do the doors, roof etc too, makes a epic difference. 202 has enough balls to haul around a extra 50kg's or so

[KKtrips]

How much is the Bostik stuff?

[My name is Russell]

Should of gone with a pinto

[kyteler]

The 202 is a thirsty son of a bitch. You can make them sound epic though. Set of headers and a decent pipe plus induction and they sound pretty choice at idle. Not so flash revving, but still..

Also.

HELLO!

Put an RB in it/253/308.

[Brock-Lee]

Why are you changing the front end? was yours fucked or is it a diff style?

[mikuni]

^ I think to straighten up the valance etc

Speaking of changing fronts, check me out

Much better.

[Brock-Lee]

You legend. slam and wide 15s now plz

EDIT: how did you come across it? must be fairly rare in nz

[mikuni]

Yup, fairly certain it will be the only one in new zealand. Tis brand spankers from Holland of all places.
