Bob, thanks for the information, its all very valuable!

Posting the pics is pretty easy as long as they are already on the net, just right click the image and copy the image address and paste into the IMG button when you post on here.

Cheers
Sean

Hi Whitesedan
Ended up with stanza balljoints and 8mm wheel spacers so the front track would be 32mm over stock. adjustable camber tops that were further machined to get the 3 degrees camber. Had to pump the guards a little and trim front edge of guard to fit the 205s under .
Thanks for posting photos its great to see the ute on this site
Cheers
Bob

Ute looks good! Thanks for the p/no.

Did your setup increase front track? Your front end looks similar to how my 1200 sits with R30 struts and standard width rear end.

We are running a warm A15 with webers and a cam. Motor is perfectly streetable and is by no means a race engine.
Strut inserts are Koni 8641 1072sport.
Rear end is stock ute with 4.875 diff and topgear LSD.
Hey Cheater am hopeless doing tech stuff on the puter but check out www.ifpix.com then winton july13 and yellow there are photos of my ute in action. If you can get any of these up on the net I would be rapt.
Also check out winton raceways website for pedders no bull sprint series results and see what the ute was competing against and beating. Cheers
Bob

Hi Guys
I'm still happy. Did our sprint meeting at Winton on the weekend and got down to a 1.48.50 (3 secs quicker than last time )on a cold day. Won under 2 litre road registered class as a bonus.
Front end upgrade was superb (including 120Y sway bar and the 3 degres neg)
Ended up with a 4.875 diff which matched revs to track nicely.
Next time out we want to soften up the back a bit and we will have a real rocket
Cannot praise the konis enough. As the old saying goes you get what you pay for.
Cheers
Bob
