Fuck oath Trentus. Loooong way to go, but it'll be built right. I may even make a trip to the Berra for ya!
Two new items arrived in the mail today:
Replacement sway bar link pins and Nolathane bushes. These kits are also up and down adjustable. Which will help........how? I don't even know. Other item is a pair of ETM lower trailing arm supports. They simply weld onto the factory lower tailing arms to give them a "top", and prevent bending on hard launch with sticky tyres.
This'll be it for a little while (apart from a few interior parts this weekend), until I save a bit of money for the diff. REALLY looking forward to updating the thread with pictures of those bits!!

Pretty sure it would make the sway bar tighter / looser.

Big thanks to Trev (MARMO) for welding up my lower trailing arms with the ETM supports:
I must say, that's some very nice TIG welding.
Also picked up a replacement sunglasses holder, so my centre console is looking rather finished. Some of the other bits I wanted to replace weren't in any better condition at the wreckers, so I'm still on the lookout for more interior bits.
Meanwhile, money is being put away for the diff.

So I picked a up another roof lining on the weekend, which is perfect. Tried to fit it Saturday, gave the fuck up. Kept getting wrinkles on the passenger corner of the windscreen, and it was always shorter on one side. So I'll leave it for another day.
Trailing arms are with Nick again at Pedders getting the Nolathane fiited. I had a bit of a crack using a G clamp, no luck. Meh, he'll have it done in no time.
And I'm looking into fitting an RB26DETT intake manifold to the RB25DET head. Factory forward facing plenum, VCT. Can't lose.
Stay tuned.

Ohhhh noessssss, you son of a bitch....
I raise you:
To answer your question, too much of this:
Not enough retaining of this:
Just found out I may have to move house AGAIN, so that could delay the diff a bit. If not, I should have the cash in about a month.

Faggot landlord has decided to sell, because he's a pussy and afraid of this homo economic climate. Or some shit.

Well, I dunno man - what's he charge for a basic external same colour spray? No boot/bay/jams? The paint is pretty good (with the exception of the LHR foor which has a chunk missing [see first pic] ), especially the rear third (resprayed about 18 months ago).
