The seats are pretty rough, will need to be upholstered, and the only carpet in it is in the boot (it looks OK).

Without knowing Kirstie's plans 100% she wants it to look as stock as possible. That means original vinyl seats, coupe dash, hidden intercooler, etc. Nothing on it will make it look like a turbo, hence why I'm painting her an original colour.

Along this theme, just want a quick answer on whether 13s will fit over the R31 rear discs? Our one doesn't have the calipers fitted, and there doesn't seem to be much room in there. It would be great if they could 'coz then we could fit my spare hotwires to her for the old skool look.

anyone know what the original colour of the carpet was in the wagons? i'd have a look but its hard to walk properly.....i did go back to work riding my pushbike delivering mail but my knee hurts like a M-Fker!! that and there is a heap of stuff in the boot.

we thought for 3wks i just dislocated my knee, but found out via results from my MRI that i tore my Anterior Crucite Ligament clean off the bone....word of advice to everyone else.......DONT DO THIS KIND OF INJURY its really ####ing hurts!

certain types of 13" wheels will just fit over the r31 calipers, mine has about 2mm clearance. the problem is the front brakes which should be bigger will need bigger wheels

hey i just got the super cheap spray both lol
i was wondering if you had a pic of your extraction fan set up

Extraction fan!?!

That's what you leave tiny gaps in the roof for!!

Luke approached me with a "thought"...which sometimes can prove to be not such a good "thought"!!

tonight he voiced what i had been thinking for quite awhile but not actually bothered to mention to him before....

scrap making the ute road worthy n just go balls to the wall with it!!

and b4 he even finished the sentence i gave him the thumbs up!

also, anyone got a tonneau cover that will fit straight onto luke's ute? at my suggestion that we drive it to summernats, we will need one to keep everything from flying out of the tray!!

i also told him to just throw a new head gasket on his ute and it will be fine!! should take more then a day to do himself!!

since this will now become the thread for the wagon too, i will the "update"....since #### weather has been happening in sydney no work has been done, BUT we did buy a tailshaft loop for $35 at the nats. hoping to start more work soon.

hope some more progresss happens soon :)

maddats ute has a tail sharft loop too but i couldnt figure out wat its for ?

It's just a loop attached around the tailshaft and stops the tailshaft from dropping to the ground and potentially digging in, in the event of it snapping.
