We both defected . Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Yep how is that! Both off the road at the same time, bloody cops! Anyways because SXC 747 bumped the thread up ill update it. I bought Sprigzy's hiflow turbo off [GLDJET] the other week and i had a boot full of gear for the install when i was defected. Oh well its going to have to wait now, i was pretty disappointed in the timing. Also have a 5speed conversion waiting to go in, getting bored with the auto. And this is how the car will be for a little while longer until I fix it up to pass regency. Heres a pic of some of the SA boys on a friday cruise, left to right is TURBZ, myself, SXC747, Boywonder, Jetvl086 and Termite got chopped in the back, couldnt fit in the pic. There was better pics from this meet but havent turned up yet on the site. I'll continue to update the progress of the regency inspections and build progress!

Lookin good pat, 5 speed ftw . LOL @ both of you kents getting done within a couple of days of each other... Ive got no one to cruise with anymore lol Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

We ride with you now Josh, and drink up . While the turbo is not installed pat, you should take the chance to clean it up, make it look brand new! Maybe even polish the compressor housing . Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

That gearbox looks like an MF5 box.....? Or are my eye's decieving me?

Good eye/s! it is a mf5 ive read on the forum they can handle up to 200rwkw for periods up to 12months(its been rebuilt recently), and thats cool with me until i get a 32 or 33 box...i like to live dangerously. and wayne...what are you on about the turbo IS clean, you wont see any polished housings under the manifold. def not worth the 150bucks to do it anyways Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

lol w/e. Do a skid.

Damn, I wanted that turbo! The defect sucks man but it looks like some fun times ahead with all the new goodies on!

so when is the BBQ/piss-up/work-on-pats-car day?

Im keen. Turbz ill cruise with you mate. We should both be turbo shortly anyway!

Updates My car is now manual, HUGE thanks to Lockie (Jetvl086) for putting in the time and making it happen aswell as helping to get my car roadworthy. I also got bored and took "HDT-VLCLE's" advice (from a while back now) and repainted my sideskirts! Heres a pic of the prep...couldnt be bothered taking them off!

hurry up and get that hi flow on and start blowin ****s off looks good pat Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

im gutted about getting reamed by the cops 2 days after picking that turbo up once im cleared its getting slapped on that week!! i might need to borrow some of those magic gloves ay Lockie dropped the car off at the painters today getting all the rust removed from the front window (listed on my defect notice) along with getting a top half respray and a le wing fitted. Rust looks absolutely shocking once i kicked out my window bit of a waiting list though its going to be a while before im back on the road unfortunately also painted up a heatshield and put that on, looks much neater now Im looking forward to the next update should be with some new paint! Ohh and a big thanks to Todd AKA Boywonder for letting me borrow your standard springs and steering wheel Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Looks awesome pat. I need to get my hands on a heatshield too, Looks good. That rust is discusting. Cant wait for the HiFlo man, put your bottom end into the ground, oh and the LE wing is sex, i also want one. I'll wait till yours is done before i make my decision tho . Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

ouch, how much is that setting you back .. i got the same problem in my boot and the floor a little runt spots but i want it cut out and welded a new one .. ? they quoted me 1.5k and also your internationals look very nice with the 1 tone .. nice clean car .. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

thanks man ^^^^ yea turns out getting rust removed is a costly job been quoted from 1000 to 1750 for just my front windscreen! i would have left it if i didnt need it for roadworthy but i guess **** happens

thats right man .. shi$ happends but no matter what in the end you are just making the car more betta .. yet again i need to do mine .. but i cbf as i have alot of other parts and goods i need and want .. and to this day and age i still got just stock splits at front and no sub nothing .. ahahah time and place and subs dont cramp my style.... as to yet .. so keep it up Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

****. bad luck with the rust man. i didnt realise it was that bad. agree with wayne. that boot wing is goin to look sick. time and money... the life of owning a VLT.

lol that it is, vlt's are an expensive game! but yeah like muzavl said its all improvements in the end cheers for the comments, im looking forward to the wing on too. Also good to hear you sorted out your car todd. lockie is pro Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
