congrats Craig........with the sale of the 33 earlier, I'm guessing you were planning this for awhile?

yeah, was in the back of my mind for a fair while, im 21, wendy is 25, some people say

im too young, but you know what, i know what/how i feel, and its what i wanted, and gladly, so did she!

atleast ill always have a good memory of the 33, quarter of the moneys from the sale is now sitting on her finger lol

will be calling to update insurance tomorrow for sure.

God help me I am *this* close to buying that thing :laugh:

I've always wanted a toaster on wheels :rofl:

Hah those things are classic. I remember seeing some clips on Funniest Home videos years ago where they had one which was a ute (ie front cabin, rest was all ute) and the dude drive it up at around 30kph and slammed on the brakes.... car rolled onto its face...

piss funny

-D

Yeah the utes are sketchy looking, wouldn't want to have to do an emergency maneuver in one :laugh:

They look pretty cool with some rims and low though, I've always wanted to get one and chuck some dish as neg offset 13s on it and slam the thing. I can't help but laugh whenever I see one, having and driving a modded one would be hilarious :rofl:

Goddam it I can't stop looking at that van and thinking of all the funny shit I could do to it :P In addition to the wheels and low that I mentioned before, I'd probably chuck some crazy loud exhaust on it (its old enough to not need a cat :D) and 5% tint on the rear windows. Icing on the cake would be a 'When I grow up I want to be a Hiace' sticker on the back or something hahahah.

note the big ass intercooler at the front was in canberra though i think so may have been a regency trip to get it in.

the guy shoved a mattress in the back woulda make an awesome car to go on holidays around aus in

yeah do it Andrew would be good for adelaide :P

Definately, Adelaide is sorely lacking in pimp van action :laugh:

I have a feeling that I might call this bloke up soon and find out if it's still for sale (the red van in the pic above). I've had this stupid idea in my head for quite some years now, might be time to finally make it happen :rofl:

you will need the pfc software and consult cable. my car has a port for the cable in the drivers side kick panel, not sure if 32's or whatever need a port made up. you can buy the consult cable for around $200

    • Hi Gents, Someone I know (experienced engine builder) built an engine. It had some chinesium rods that came with ARP 2000 bolts. One failed on the dyno, destroyed the whole thing. The only possibilities are: Installation error. Possible, but we should discount it almost 100% because he knows what he's doing. He doesn't discount it that much, because he's being hard on himself. QC/QA problems with ARP products. I'd like to discount this, but I have heard a number of stories about similar failures, and stories of some builders buying 2 sets of everything, x-raying everything, and picking only those bolts that they are completely happy with. This behaviour coming from anecdotal stories of ~1% failure rates. 1% of all rod bolts failing would be about 1000x higher than I would expect to be anywhere near tolerable. If I were ARP I certainly wouldn't even be selling the product if they were dying at that rate (for non-installation error reasons). So, I would prefer to discount that possibility too. Fakes. Specifically, fakes being sold bundled with cheap rods sets from CCP factory B in Shenzen, or wherever the stuff is being made this week. So the question here is, does anyone else have some horror stories that would point to fakes being circulated in this manner?
    • I forget this is an au website, my GTR FS5R30A was 2200 AUD delivered but I did have to go to a warehouse near the port to pick it up myself.
    • Excuse for an epic road trip?  I expect a few people would be thinking of doing that given the price.
