She is Regooeeed..! painted the FMIC black, to try to blend it in a bit, i believe it does also went shopping for her today. purchased my obligatory 'Smiley Face' air freshener, and Due to me having sold my old stereo with the N/A Nerfroster bought a set of 4" and 6" speakers and another JVC Double Din headunit, all exactly like my previous install in the N/A Forester will take pics tomorrow then, gotta call James Car Cleaning and get him out for this one too. their work is amazing also, bidding on some WRX/STI seats for her at the moment now, to decide which one to take on the 'Reed gets his license back' cruise

I'm keen for anywhere mate :-) do I bring my Turbo GT Forester, or the Moke? decisions...

that is bloody crazy mate..!

agreed mate and she passed RWC today..! should be regoed tomorrow

totally agree, DougE really want to chase up the exact type of Rotas i had previously but with wider tyres. not a fan of stretch

yeah rob, wanted to call ya after our Txts today, but was flat out.. literally didnt finish work til around 5 will call ya tomorrow mate and still got the Moke, for now, Reed...lol

thats all i had time for today, sorry few things to do include: remove the broken glass from inside passenger door, tint the window(assume it was smashed and wasnt mentioned during the sale) wire in my old Stereo/amp/sub/speakers, from Nerfroster V1 look into selling the 19" koyas and buying some 17" Rotas get my RWC guy over on the weekend. P.S took Tony for a spin in the Moke this arvo. non stop smiles oh, and due to me getting a GT bonnet and tailgate on Nerfroster V1, i had the original bonnet and tailgate here still thinking, due to the FMIC, i could put the original, non scoop bonnet on her, paint the FMIC black, and go Sleeper look will test the look out when i can

kept Tony in the loop as i was getting her etc, and he said he would rock around after work for some 'group action' pics...lol McCrappy Iphone pics sorry

the minute i saw her in the flesh, still not sure on the rims yet... now, i gotta admit, i have never driven a turbo Subie, only been a passenger in Tony's with his old turbo, and it surprised me at the time driving this one home today, made my pants tight..! more to come

been a long time between 'drinks' errm posts... Got the call yesterday that my Redundancy was clearing today, so i looked into these sexy beasts again but wanted a Turbo this time i had an interesting day, today..! got up at 4AM, went for a drive to Brissy, to catch up with John who was selling the twin to my old green beast fell in love with it, threw money at him, raced to get a day pass so i could drive her home pics, incoming...!

lol fo sho..! wish this dammn rain would stop so i could clean her and take some decent pics

so, this is what i did this arvo in the break from the rain took off the Roll Bar and put in some lap sash seat belts. i love Willy's look, low and fat.. going to trial it for a week in this girl and see if i like it thoughts?

yoooo krayzeeeee!! nice mate

thanks Reed..! and was good to catch up Trev sorry i wasnt much use, a mixture of my meds and alcohol....lol

and lastly, some pics of the 'Zorst i am now broke...lol time to take her for a run, and enjoy it thanks for your time

removing the old exhaust Ian gets her up on the hoist, while there, we check the underside, and take a few snaps another shot of the front end the only shot of my exhaust after picking her up, sorry was in such a rush to get into her, lol last shot before i put her away for the night went for a cruise after my redundancy party late yesterday arvo. today i have to run one of the wheels down for a valve replaced, as the steel ones tend to leak, and i asked, at the time to replace them, but they didnt, saying they were fine..... so now i am off to get it replaced to hopefully fix it so, after picking up the car from Rodney Hansen's, he said the steering could do with a rebuild, and the brake and clutch, in the pedal box, sticks, probably from sitting for so long, so i booked her in for march 18 to get them rebuilt, and get some HiLows and new lower 'knuckles' fitted. should drive like a limo then :-) also, Mark from Terry Wilkie smash repairs said he could do a full respray for me, for around the $1,500 mark, any colour(within reason) so, i may do that over winter fingers crossed, i will be taking her on her maiden long journey to Warwick Raceway this weekend to cheer on Rodney, in his mini thanks for your time

so, the problem was an easy fix. the points screw had worked itself loose and they had shut.... very lucky we found it before the screw may have fallen out, and into the moving parts of the dizzy.. set the dwell, and bought a proper GT40T coil, and she is all good now i then rang Ian at Muffler Kings, and got a new exhaust fitted, identical to this one, she was on the hoist beside me, lol, an import he started this one up, its sounded tough, but subtle, and i liked that. as i also figured in a moke, it would be louder than the mini, 'inside'

haha..!

oh and sad news... just before, it stalled. and now runs like a pig... like it's running on 3 cylinders... i tested the leads etc, spark at all the plugs. am thinking it may have sucked up some crap from the tank? ah well, video soon, then bed thanks for your time

picked her up this arvo, late and went for a cruise for an hour or so, to make sure she is all good non stop smiles and cheers and the usual thumbs up from young and old so so happy..! and while the video uploads, some pics to tide us over picking up my good mate, Rob for a cruise

now i have been flat out with work, with the selling of the business, training the new guys on the run, etc, and havent had much time to even stress about the moke. so in a way, i am grateful for the distraction this morning i had a little bit of spare time, so i snuck out there this morning for an update and some more progress pics Engine fitted replaced the outer CV joints, while at it need to replace some rubbers in the front end, fit the calipers(when they turn up). then tomorrow, tune, test drive, and fingers crossed, may be cruising to Warwick in her this weekend to watch the HR C/C sprints over the weekend..! thanks for your time

sorry mate i got sent a link with jsut that pic in it, with the quote "make my toyota small" or something similar.. tried googling etc, no luck

gorgeous..!
