My mum told me to f**k off 10 years ago, Haven't made contact with each other in that time. I'm happy with how my life is atm so no point changing anything.

If you want to try and see ya dad then give it a go.

As the title of the photo suggest it is a Mazda Roadpacer. Yes believe it or not, they made Kingswoods here and shipped them to Japan where they fitted 12A rotaries ....stupidest move ever, but they are worth a mint if you could find an original one.

He may be at a point where he is too embaressed to contact you Craig,

Just do it man - You don't have to be 'happy family' with him - but atleast you will have no regrets in formally meeting your blood father. Imo you got nothing to loose and everything to gain in just 'meeting him'. Like I said, you don't need to be happy family but atleast give it a go.

very solid advice IMHO...goodluck with it Craig

I've heard of the kingsy with a 12A in them,

Imagine that tourqueless poor little 12A trying to tug along a frame of a kingswood lol

theres a couple of jackie chan movies from the early 90s/late 80s that has a bunch of kingswoods in them... i pissed myself laughing when i saw them in a 'high speed chase' (well actually the coke came out thru my nose but u get the idea)

-D

yeah, seeing as i have found the right staircase to climb (so to speak)

ill just stand here for a while and think about what im gonna say etc etc

ill get there, just a few other things i gotta concentrate on atm

lol Cheers guys,

Its sure is coming along slowly. Basically once my mate has done all the welding its time to get it rolling for Lance walker to make up a sick roll cage for it, then onto paint.

Main parts now is coilovers, brakes and dog box, then possibly a cf tailshaft, billet driveshafts, then focus on interior.

Answer my PM on NS, f4g!

yeah, you never know mate, he could be scared or too embarrassed to make the 1st move......who knows? :cool:

Don't put it off for too long though cause I buried my Dad 4 days ago and you don't ever want to leave things unsaid or unresolved.

    • Interesting. My tuner said after the tune that my fuel economy would be better but it is the exact same from what I could tell even though my car was running rich before lol. How much do km do you reckon you get on a full tank of petrol on your commute?
    • A little follow up here on the ceramic coating.  We've had storms galore here and I've done a few ks, enough to gross them up  Consensus is that they didn't get as dirty as usual, the coating definitely repelled a little of the dirt and I think they kinda snowball. They get a little dirty and then they get dirty faster which makes sense. Cleaning them regularly would allow them to protect better.  Cleaning was a breeze. I tried first to just hose them off which, unsurprisingly, did nothing. But, making the wheels wet and then just wiping them over with a used but clean microfibre cloth was all that was required. I didn't need any cleaner at all, just water and a cloth. The wheels look amazing again.
    • Gave her a nice wash today and took extra time to clean off the tree sap and tar and crap. We have a usable garage now so she'll stay cleaner longer. Took a few snaps in some nice light afterwards.   
    • OK, solid mount Z1 diff brace is in, pretty straightforward, it picks up 3 diff hat bolts and ties them to 2 support bolts on the subframe. Pretty sure someone else on here said they had reduced axle tramp with this but mine was already pretty good for smooth wheelspin, and still is....will see you this goes over time and whether I end up with a broken rear diff hat
    • Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.
