cheers todd but im thinking of just leaving a standard one on for a while im not sure but ill keep it in mind.
there isnt alot i can think of that they can get me for ive been pretty picky over the years with small things. but im sure they will find something.
i might just get the odometer done anyway as ive been meaning to do it for ages.
what have people done to neaten up the CAI mod hole.(where the old airbox went)
heres a few pics of how its sitting at the moment. its a bit dirty in these pics
things ive changed for regency:
Wheels
Front springs
Adjustable strut tops
Strut inserts
powersteering boots
trailing arms and bushes
control arm bushes
front indicators
steering wheel
i still have to replace my powersteering pump and make a bracket for my pod filter and not sure what to do with my catch can ill probably take it out completely. and ive put a new bonnet release cable in but still having problems getting it to pop.
cheers
well i went to get the defect removed today but didnt pass got done for:
-All lights to operate ( L/H indicator doesnt work when highbeams are on )
-Low hand brake force
-child restraint anchor points to be accessible ( sub box is in the way )
-R/H/F bull joint to show no play
-Power steering rack leak
****ing sucks.
well everything is fixed i took it to lonsdale today for inspection and they have stuffed up the paperwork for my engine swap and brake upgrade so they couldn't do the inspection so i have sorted the paper work and its getting resent but while making that phone call i was told it cost another $214 on top of the defect inspection to get the motor and brakes checked over. ****ing getting real sick of this crap.
haha would love to but then the vl would just sit there and im not planning on selling it for a long time. i want it back for C4C which shouldn't be to hard as long as i can get it booked in next week. its been defected for 4 months now.
Its booked in for the inspection on Monday which it should pass so i should be at C4C. i would have liked to have it back a few weeks ago to do a few things before C4C but oh well. fingers crossed it passes
well it passed inspection today and also had the inspection for the motor and brakes + turbo conversion so all is legit now. feels so good to drive it again plus it handles heaps better with the new suspension and steering rack and pump.
things to come are: new exhaust manifold (already have thanks to TURBDWAGZ)
- lsd centre (already have just needs to be put in)
- new tailgate
- fix left hand side skirt
- retint windows
that all for short term.
well i finally found a mint tailgate completely rust free that has been painted and fitted and also have a 28 spline lsd in the wagon now it goes alot better now i can get traction.
ive also fitted an aftermarket ebay exhaust manifold mainly for looks i didnt really expect much improvement power wise but it sounds better on boost i reckon.
any way ill get pics up asap.
