it sucks cos if you ride a harley you can be as noisy as you want!

i managed to get mine down to 92db yesterday its hard trying to make it quieter but still keep performance unfortunately the sound has changed and it doesnt have that lumpy sound anymore at least it will pass the cert now just got to get the certifier back to have another look

its a fu*king joke man lol,

Great news Hayden! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

awsome

yes!!! finally certed was starting to get a bit worried there didnt think id get the plate in time for the cruise. now i just got to get some more kms on the engine. next step for the car will be to do alot of driving and get some gas stays on the bonnet aswell as a turbo beanie once thats done ill move onto getting it painted need it done before powercruise Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

awesome well done be nice to have a fully legal car now.

just thought id post up a pic of the interior thanks to nzvlcom i now have the centre console and drivers side dash panel in. im still undecided about the boot around the gear lever i have one of the factory boots but i may just leave it how it is. as for the rest of the interior it will be repainted in the same colour and a few panels will be vinyled in the same colour aswell providing i can match the colour . i think ill get the rear seat recovered to match the front one and then i have a few little tricks and ideas i want to try out but mainly keep it looking relatively stock Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

With the gas stays, there's a thread here somewhere saying to use the VL Wagon tailgate struts- they're ok but I've found they're a bit to stiff for the Bonnet (tailgate is much heavier). The part number (for Stabilus) is HC7, I emailed them the other day asking if they've got one the same length but a bit softer. The guy said the HC7 is about 400N (i'm guessing it means Newtons - Force), but they do have them in a lower force - he recommended to try 250N (although he didn't give a part number), he gave me the phone number for Gas Strut Services in Te Atatu South so I'm gonna try and go there in the next few weeks and suss out some new ones.

If you show your car say like at Kumeu,GM show etc and you have your bonnet up and the wind catches it ! Happened to a walky next to me at the first GM show

but the struts will hold it, stop it from flying back wouldn't they? i'd only expect it to fly away with the standard bonnet stay?

sorry I ment like slamming shut

aw I get it now lol yea that makes sense... long piece of 4x2 will prevent that Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
