Oh and moved into a flat with the missus so I've got my own garage now. Small but it will do!
My work mate brought me back some goodies from Singapore. A broadway, levin & trueno magazine 2011, and some stickers (drift tengoku, bride holding monster, and fujiwara tofu shop)

Cheers man slowly doing more and more to it while still using it as my daily.
Anyone know how hard it is to do the rear wheel bearings on a te71/ae86 diff? Do I need an axle puller? The axles were last out around 2 years ago for the LSD. Also do I need a press or any other tools?
Mine are just squeaking while driving slowly in 1st so like 10-15kph.
I'm really keen on a nardi deepcorn if anyone has one second hand or new. Really hard to get in nz.
I've done a few more things in the last month, ke30 lca's with new ball joints and bushes, painted my dish black looks good as and just a wee tidy up. Will post pics up soon of the wheels.
Looking good Brad, keep the updated coming!
I wouldn't of thought imported parts would be hard to get in NZ.. you guys have a stack of sweet imports, especially ae86's![]()
Sadly nardi's are hard to get new over here even getting a second hand one has been a mission.
Any way, here's an update.
Did my ke30 lower control arms they are about 15mm longer than standard AE arms. Put new ball joints and bushes into them.
I painted my dish black for a change of scenery. It's a bit of a love it or hate it kind of thing, I love it u probably hate it.
I'm just sick of boring shiny dish on cheap copy wheels.
Also put a little bit of wanky blue silicone hose in my engine bay.and installed drift tengoku sticker
Cleaned and postered my garage, now feels much more like home

After snow. Ice on drive way + zero traction= fence tap. Didn't do any damage just annoying when your late for work. Was so slippery got 4th gear going in the drive way going nowhere.
Don't know who's trueno this is but went for our Sunday mish to subway for lunch and this was parked up. Genuine ae86 which is rare over here (mostly 85s). Was nice and tidy with some te37v reps. Funny I didn't think mine was low until parked beside this
