cheers, yeah, shes mine :-) dad bought her brand new in 89 and thrashed it as a work truck with a hydraulic tipper for most of its life, then i got it, it started failing inspections on rust, and the rust repairs went a bit wrong... ;-)

sorry, misread your post, its my truck. it used to be my dads work truck, now its my "look like a work truck go like an evo 9 and dont get any attention from the cops, and even if i do, they cant bloody catch me anyway" truck. i want it to go like hell, stop like nothing else, corner at 1G or greater on semi slicks, and at least 0.95G on toyo T1Rs. but above all, i want it to do all that with an RB30DET for my skyline on the back, or a dune buggy that i'm yet to build that might look like this design of mine:
thread post photo

or something. ie, i want it to be practical. i also want it to be rearend crash proof. i hate tail gaters, and i dont hesitate to brake test them, and i dont mind if they hit me (their fault) my skyline has a two bar for the same reason, one of the few to have that

ie, i want it tough and fast and boring looking. sleeper sleeper sleeper.

hope that clears it up.

in kph not mph, and i'm on the correct side of the road. ie, left.
100 - 140


0 - 150

Hi, cheers guys, the full build thread is here:



its VERY detailed, and VERY un56k happy. it will take you a very long time to go through if you do so thoroughly, but its there as a sort of step by step how-to/how-i-did guide for anyone that wants to give it a shot.

both of you have some pretty cool stuff going on in your garage links too! i especially like this weld :



leaves any of mine for dead! tig i take it?

spot you later,

fred.

I now own a van







It's in NZ and I'm in the UK, but I still managed a burnout

The van comes with 5 studs and disk brake rear end, so those bits will be going on the ute and the van to the dump

Enjoy!

Fred.
