thats a long way back mate you'd almost have to reach backwards to put it in reverse wouldn't you?

yeah no worys il post a pick of the radiator as soon as its finished mat lisle aka mr enforcer is making the radiator for me looking at about $600 mark.
The gearstick is a bit far back but it was the same as my old ute and it didnt bother me id rather it be further back with the stronger CA18DET box than the weaker stumpy box. Cheers Luke

Mine sits back as well cause I'm using the CA box as well. It feels a little weird at first but once you have been for a couple laps around the block, it is actually quite good, because you dont have to fight when reaching forward because you are being pushed backward into your seat.

Yeah mate it was quick and im very happy its a bit darker but thats to be expected.
Im hoping its not much longer but money is the factor holding me back. There was pictures of your car on this site since you have been gone.
