Looks rust free dude, this is coming to perth right? (Too many white ones now hahahah)
Interesting to see it in the flesh
Figgured after having this car for a While I should probly get around to writing up one of these!
Anyway, So it started life as THE most stock sprinter I have come across!
The the pictures do the talking!
Stock rims and front:
Stock radio!
Stock Wheel and interior!
Stock hatch cover!
Stock Tail Lights!
So... What else to do than bash down to the coast for some senic photographs?!?
Right, now that that's out of the system!
Time to Mod up y0!
First things First! lets get this fron sorted out!
Open diffs are for wusses:
T-18 with 2-way in!
Full Drag Stylez eh?
Now for the front suspension...
First off, weight reduction in the guards, lol
The doner car:
[attachment=15015:attachment]
The doner bits! (well some of them anyway)
pure stopping power... best brakes out of anycar I have ever driven!
wait up! Pause for raw power!
thought Id add extra power... 10Kw per addition...
Spruce up the ol' interior as well hey?
check this out! LED parkers, pretty speci hey?
Anyway, haven't done much since then!
Have put on some Longchamps, but don't have any photos with them on
Maybe ill chuck that up some time soon...
Stay tuned because hopefully be adding in a JDM 4AGE & Box within a month!
Mind you, dunno how much more needs to be done after that...
...except for large ammounts of driving, Ill have to give it a go on the track too!
See you all there!
P.S. its so pretty!

After a pm for someone the other day I went to see how the parkers looked and found that only about 1/2 of the LED's light up and the others flicker on and off...
So I assume then that they all work and I must be feeding the lights the wrong voltage or current.
Does anyone know If I am supposed to add some resistors or something in series with the lights?
Yeah i put LED parkers in and they gave 1/8th of the light from stock ones!(they looked mad, though!)
the LED's i used were 0.5w..What's the wattage of the cluster style LED's you are using?..also if you add a resistor in series you will Dramatically reduce the current flowing to lights (I(Current)=V(Voltage)/R(Resistance), so if you increase resistance you are limiting the current!), also lights should Never be put in series due to the voltage drop across each light (e.g. three lights in series will look like this..(1)Bright, (2) Dimmer, (3) Very Dim), most lights are in Parallel!as for some diodes lighting up and other not.. maybe a faulty unit or as simple as a dodgy connection between globe and lampholder(one of the globes from new had plastic on the terminals, so it wouldn't work, maybe check for that?)?
Get back to me, as im keen to see what the problem was..pics would be good!

Thats right, an engine conversion!!!
Straight up, I can't thank the WA crew enough already!
Especially Ken and Tom, who helped me with pretty much everything, but there was also quite a few guest appearances along the way too!
