I got one exactly the same for a daily.

Except mine is champagne with cream interior. Epic comfy and i do a fair few road trips too.

Kings springs do crap all don't they!..haha aftermarket S14 springs and some kyb's do the job better if you can be bothered.

And rip those dirty mud guards off.

Jacobxxx
22nd March 2010, 10:30 PM
kings are sooo shit haha.
i scrape on basically everything, all my moneys going into the ke for the time being, so after thats rego'd ill upgrade the springs and shocks.

Only bad point is they go through a bit of petrol, Highway driving isnt too bad, but around town is terrible!

Jacobxxx
22nd March 2010, 10:32 PM
Mud guards are sexy as haha, have a beautiful grandpa driver side window protecter thingo too.

also have chrome doorhandles to go on

yeah the 7m isnt great on the petrol. It is a 3 litre six though :p

These are cool. I wanted one for a first car, but saw the issues in manual conversion and would be too lazy. Maybe later though, 7M's have got a fair set of bollocks with a W58 behind them.
google search serial nine, they specialize in MX73's, MX83's. Also, JZX81 coilovers fit. With some dishy 17's and a mean stance you'd be the coolest kid in town :)

Jacobxxx
22nd March 2010, 10:54 PM
Too bad im in the same town as dr1ft-p1g :( im pretty sure his mx83 is the coolest.

Ill probably end up paying someone to do the manual conversion for me i.e Brendan

ThatsHowWeRoll
22nd March 2010, 11:06 PM
yeah true that. Drove past brendan the other day and felt silly in mine!..haha

Manual conversion is easy fairly once you have the parts...way it all up man...sometimes auto is good if it's made for comfort!

Jacobxxx
22nd March 2010, 11:09 PM
people in Lismore used to think i was Brendan occasionally, and wave, now im not (that much) of a jerk, but dudes waving at me in commos with 20 inch chromies do get the finger... haha

i found a website (can't quite recall it at the moment) but they sell a complete conversion package for them.
Hate driving the auto with a passion.

22nd March 2010, 11:24 PM
^ I would like to see link of mentioned website!

Jacobxxx
22nd March 2010, 11:26 PM
ill have a look, pretty sure i didnt dream it.. haha

Can't believe i forgot about that kit!
You'd still need gearbox, W58-7M bellhousing, and MA70 tailshaft.
But that kit takes the hard work of pedal box, slave, and master out of the equation. Sweet!

Jacobxxx
23rd March 2010, 09:56 PM
