August 13, 201214 yr Author comment_621052 yeah I have a mortgage now :oops: It will happen, although there are stringent guidelines around the level of mortgage repayment, ie, I said I could pay it out in X amount of time, which means she's gonna hold me to it now, so the car will have to get done around that, currently looking to ditch my all trades apprentice and get my own and save myself about $700 a week, a reasonable amount of which could probably be contributed towards this. I just need to decide on a brake package, so I can size master cylinders and buy a pedal box. I have the seat and harness here, so I need to do my homework re brakes, and I will be a big step in the right direction. a 15K rebuild on the patrol and a 5K canopy didnt help though :( Report
August 13, 201214 yr comment_621055 do you have a buildup on the patrol??? I'm keen to see what 15k did for a troll....i hope its on outerlimits4x4...... Report
August 13, 201214 yr Author comment_621057 nah, if they quit their apprenticeship with all trades its a 12month lockout from rejoining your apprenticeship, and even then theres red tape if I sign him on, it's just shite, cause for what a 3rd year costs through all trades i could employ a tradesman. they get signed up in school without realising these things, and get passed around, and what could be a good kid just ends up confused and 3rd year know bugger all.

August 13, 201214 yr Author comment_621059 haha nah, i never get on the net for fun these days. it all ads up rather quickly, but 173 hp on 35's at the tyres, easy 200 on 31's. And i havnt turned the gas back on yet. rebuilt with a brand new GU turbo head on my GQ block with GU turbo pistons coated, old head was cracked in all 6 cylinders lol, cracked cylinbder 5 in the NA black top motor pump by diesel central, hiflowed and played with TD05 18G turbo from united fuel injection Report
August 13, 201214 yr Author comment_621063 haha, we bought vacant land, Ive gotta build the bloody thing and pay for it lol Report
August 13, 201214 yr comment_621097 I can't wait to see this on the road mate, Having a mortgage is a great investment, although the market is very slow, its only a matter of time, I'm trying to sell my 40ft cat, very slooow Report
