bit of an update installed a hoppers kit to the front and installed hd pedders springs and 90/10 shocks
installed convo pros on the front. drove round the block a few times to test out new diff n brakes and pulled the motor out to refresh, fix a oil leak.

So thats why I never see this car out.
At least there's a good reason for it being currently off the road!
Looking good buddy!!

update time flys took it to ingham car show,first event in a couple of years, got an exhaust 3" mandrell bent sounds good then the turbo shat itself so gave it a go n rebuilt it myself.entered it into the all holden day and managed to win top modified hb-lj torry so happy with that!!! and recently added a catch take to stop the roker breather sucking into the intake.

They looked at my tyre plackard and said my tires are to big. Air filter out the bonnet, and had no mod plate for the cage witch I have got now. I deregisted it cause I only had 2 weeks to fix so I'm in the process of getting a rwc. So just a couple of rwc things left to fix.

You have a tyre plackard? Mines long gone......
Tough break though man, probably if it wasnt for the filter out the bonnet you wouldnt have even been pinged sadly.

Bad luck mate.
If they spent half the time they do chasing shiny things on looking for lights out or bald tyres #@$^%& suspension etc the world would be a safer place....But they would get less revenue....
Cheers.
