yeah I will be up for a hillsprint.

but my fto was rear ended 2months ago and she's lacking serious power my exhaust system is screwed.

But hey she goes in to the doctor and plastic surgeon soon and she will be ready for a cruise lets see how many FTO's we can get together and take some pics too hey.

twistea: your mate got his/her FTO yet?

Do you go for a drive during the evenings at all either of you? I havent actually taken mine for a run through the hills yet, and i live near enough to em....sad. Might try and meet up around town sometime (when i get time) prior to a drive - to check out each other's cars?

I doubt i need to know why he has BB plates too.. I havent seen that one around town before. Who does body kits down here?

What colour is your car? and what type GR/GPX/? you have a bodykit on it?

hey daz, my friend hasnt got his fto yet. he said it should be on the road next week. but i cant believe you havnt been for a drive through the hills yet?? you obviously dont realise what you're missing.

as for a bodykit, maybe try asking some of the jap wrecking yards. if they cant help they should be able to point you in the right direction.

Oh, yeah as for those body kits - just wanting to know who sells them, and fits them.

any good fibreglass repairer and panel beater should be able to fit the kits for you. As for buying them well it just depends which one you want. My friend can get them in from Japan he owns an importing business or you can buy a couple of common ones already in Australia. But hey i'm sure we will meet up soon enough and discuss it in person

whoa sweeeeet! straight to the point then... i want a ride

i hope you're open to bribery:

Bribery is the corrupt pratice of inducing a person to act contrary to accepted or moral behaviour, by promising or giving a reward or inducement. For example, a male motorist may bribe a fellow female motorist for a ride in her car, in exchange for a ride on his motorcycle. :wink:

ok i am back in town after such a good week up in sunny brisbane :) I am busy this weekend with my girlfriend's birthday n all, so if you wanna arrange a meeting of some sort the next weekend i should be up for it.

Have either of you got pictures of your cars that you could email me? crimsonchicken@iprimus.com.au I am looking forward to seeing the turbo. Has that required any major work to the engine internals or have you simply gone for a different than stock block?
