    La beast,

    -126 000kms, 80 000 on the motor
    -4,2,1 exhaust
    -T3 trumpets
    -T3 splash guard
    -52mm twin core alluminium radiator
    -Custom made rear water housing and heater outlet
    -AE92 thermostat housing
    -TRD .8mm head gasket
    -T3 crank pully
    -Surge tank
    -Vl fuel pump

    TRANSMISSION:
    -T50
    -Exedy heavy duty clutch
    -Locked s series

    SUSPENSION:
    -K-sport front coilovers 8kg
    -AJPS adjst panhard bar
    -TRD blue springs
    -Monroe, Commo shocks
    -Front strut brace

    WHEELS/TYRES:
    -15x7 mesh
    -RE001 on front
    -Cheapies on rear

    INTERIOR:
    -OMP deep dish wheel
    -Sparco quick release hub
    -Drift button
    -Recaro bucket seat copy
    -Bride super low seat rail

    Years rego!

    Also got alot of spares for it.
    Body kit, adaptronic wiring+coil packs, Airbox that sits over the trumpets, different rails, steering wheel, quieter exhaust, TRD seat covers and some Random engine stuff.

    So story is, contacted the owner on thursday, went and saw it on sunday, was in my garage on sunday arvo.
    Drive back home took bit over 4 hours through pouring rain, flooded roads and fogged up windscreens.
    Was very sketchy to say the least haha. Not used to no powersteering and locked diff but was deff worth it and all good.

    Main plans are to fix up the flared front guards as they are very ruff, replace tail light, replace rhf light, paint some fixed rust spots, fix bonnet as its abit damaged and sort the seat out as i only just fit in it lol. Give the engine/underbody a proper look at and fix shit if need to be fixed.
    So only earing 70 a week and getting paid fortnighty progress will be slow but im going to get a casual job/do labouring then,
    Then once i go full time apprentice mechanic,

    15x8-25 Diamond racing rims- haters gunna hate
    re rego as a 2 seater
    Strip almost fully
    half cage
    start giving the engine so loving.

    So here's some pics

    Oh right sweet, yea its got abit of rust, jamie fixed probly 60% of it and im just waiting on good weather to give it some paint.
    Other bits are the rear guards, tiny bit on the roof and thats about it. Not to bad.

    Did you do anything to the motor when you had it?

    um i dont know bout re rego as 2 seater,my pinkslip guy breifly mentioned he could do a engineers report and add the changed seating capacity to that
    but i never botherd as i drive the car maybe 2 or 3 times a month on streets and twice of those times are to ec skid pan,if your going to daily i think it would
    be best to get it all legal,my pinkslip guy reckons he could do me a report for 2 seater,half cage,seat and coils for around 800 give or take so theres a ball park figure to keep in mind.
