  1. Spotted undies I reckon if you ever get that thing of yourzzzz running Paz i say FLOG!
  2. How could I forget!? Built by Jim Richards. Made faster by Benny Wooster.
  3. Coulda sworn I replied this morning...... Re cans. I'll be sure to chuck over the railing
  4. Ant, just buy my 32 gtst. Fastest Tarmac rally gtst in the country, and it's all compliant and fresh. I need the space and its a shame to see this car go to waste.
  5. Just a heads up biches. I'm flying to ye olde Melbourne town this Saturday. Keep your head on a swivel. See ya there!
  6. The current pushrods donks do an admirable job. They make the figures reliably and they're light in tne right places without multiple overhead cams n stuff .....
  7. Looks lame beside "our" Gisbon built cars though doesn't it..... No doubt in my mind the Gibson cars would smack it senseless in a head to head battle. No wonder Nismo requested that Freddy and the boys stayed at home
  8. Sweet! Keen for your update re towing
  9. I thought the live feed was really good fwiw. Good team of knowledgable people.
  10. All that crap brings silly money. FWIW, it was a random one I found on carsales.....
  11. Well as soon as you say "off road ability" which I reas as "serious off-road ability" I instantly think live front axles. So, 'Cruisers and Patrols are on the menu, wagons or utes depending on what suits. Avoid British shit but we all know that. Don't get carried away with lifts etc, coz the higher you go and the bigger the tyres, the worse they tow. Diesel Cruiser or Patrol, aftermarket turbo kit if it doesn't already have boost. Budget i9s the hard part. Personally, I'd be having a crack at busting this bloke's chops, or trying to find a GU Patrol ute with 4.2 turbo. http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/toyota-landcruiser-1994-14020428?base=1216&vertical=Car&cr=10&eapi=2&__N=1216%201246%201252%201247%201282%204294962861%204294962570%204294680273&num=15&silo=Stock&Range=Price%3a10000%2c20000%7e0.5&sort=default
  12. Yeah no good Craig. I hope you get it back mate. Everyone keeping a close eye out so fingers crossed!
  13. Are you needing anything else from the vehicle other than towing ability?Seating capacity, daily driver, economy requirements........ ?
  14. Let me be the first to express massive congratulations to our very own Stuart Benson on his promotion to "big boss" of the Octagon Targa championship. Well done mate!
  15. I feel weird saying I have a bit of badge snobbery by leaning toward the Hyundai Toyota FJ is basically a Prado underneath I understand, so should serve you well. They're but in the USA? Does that explain why no oil burner donk?
  16. Let me know what you think. I reckon they have merit for loads under 2 tonne.
  17. I think you are missing hrd-hr30's point bud.
  18. I reckon an Coyote powered GF ute would do epic powerskids whilst towing though.
  19. I think it's time you had a raise.......
  20. Nah, Chev powered HQ we were to inspect for and collect for a mate in Emerald. Lucky, it was a wart, and not as described. Long way to drive (Lismore) to find that out, but hey, he shouted us a night in Byron for our efforts 3 people, and my car trailer, setting out with under 100klm on the Nav it returned 10.4L/100 average for the trip, including some dawdling around town and up to the Lighthouse n stuff. I'm stoked with that and was very comfy and effortless. Great cruise control with the 1klm/h graduation adjustment too. Nav doesn't seem soft in the bum. They are leaves and live axle. Pathfinder is IRS yes? Bloody happy with my purchase. And I even saw NavDan and his lovely on the highway for a wave! Hard to miss them, driving a WRC green Focus RS. Cracking choice of car mate, congrats!
  21. Worth investigating for sure, though, taking into account the setup costs does it all really make sense financially? On another note, I'm running the Navara down into NSW this weekend to collect a HQ. Should be a good run to put some kays on it and see how it tows!
  22. Can completely understand not being able to go hard in those conditions.... looks appalling! Hope you're well too John.
  23. Is there even a helmet on in those pics JB? When was this, and how did you manage that mate? Grand Prix Rally I assume?
