bravo

Why not daily the race car and put the $2500 towards stage 2?

That would be right on a previously certed car, but a car that doesn't need a cert already should fall under the exemption clause. For instance - before my cert I could change my wheels every day no worries, now the plate states 17x7 ET20 wheels, no spacers. So if I want to run 16's or a wider rim, I need to get it recerted. Probably the biggest PITA as far as certing goes - once one thing breaks the threshold, everything comes under the certing umbrella.

Anyone making spacers should read the rules posted by cam themselves to ensure they get the details right. Theres a fair few little points in the rules you have to follow. In regard to the 260 box, You are supposed to cert a manual conv. My car has a cert saying its manual, so I'm sweet, but prior to that I relied on the fact that as long as it wasn't the conversion that caused the accident, it wouldn't be picked up, or invalidate any claim. And you would argue that this exception applies in the case of a manual conversion: Read 4.4 page 19

This is worth a read Unit standard assessment for towing a stricken vehicle in nz.

The rules state it must not create a hazard, and wheels, tyres, steering, brakes and lights should be functional. Does not need WOF or Reg. Some helpful quotes from LTSA website: You need brakes that can: (Also applies to towing vehiclesYou must have working tail-lights, brake lights, headlights, indicators and number plate light. (I think you could get away without this if you have no plate)

Looking Good Nathan!

That is too cool. I'd start gaming if I had one of those.

And it still goes.... Just not available for free and easy use anymore.

Simon.... 5 words... DISH...POKE...STRETCH...DO...IT.

That's genius!

Oh and I just re-read the thread Martyn - the no chance was the giving up on beer (beet?) atogether - not your bid - although I have to admit I thought I'd crack a century.

Haha I surprised even myself. Its called dedication. My deadline was the ANZAC meet, and I thought I was going to be cutting it fine. Guess working to midnight on weeknights and still getting up at 6.30am for work gets things done!

Big OOOppps if it fell off lol.

Wow. Reminds me of myself a year or two ago. now I'm too busy or too lazy or a combination of the two, and all I do is wash the car and promise myself if it gets too bad I'll just have it repainted. Good effort! I'll pay you to do mine. Seriously. Unfortunately I think travel costs would make it uneconomical lol.

Always been cleaned and oiled twice a year using authentic k&n cleaning agent and k&n filter oil. In as-new condition. Freshly cleaned and oiled. Improves air flow, improves induction sound, does a better job than your stock airfilter and will out last your car if cleaned and oiled now and again - I did mine with each oil change, but the required period is actually much less frequent. $95 + postage. Free delivery to the ANZAC cruise.

fixed Looks good.

I'll watch it. It's entertaining. It doesn't have to be a reflection of reality to be entertaining. Its a trashy high-budget, popular-culture film. No more, no less. But I will be waiting until its on DVD, preferably for sale in Thailand with the odd bit of coughing and the silhouette of someone getting up to go to the john.

Closes tomorrow night - its at just under $7k. I'm no expert, but 500hp potential or not, I think this is still fairly cheap based on the amount of gear in it. My Nanna had one of these the same colour. 2L Auto though. Bought it brand new in '89. We sold it after she died in 2006 for $5k 50,000km on the clock, 17 yrs old! Was mint.

WTF is up with the dude with the sewing machine??? I almost choked on my own spit. That's some funny sh*t.

A little over 7 dozen.

Please name your threads better. "Will..." is not a thread title.

Holy sh*t balls..... Epic internet fail.

It takes 87 beers for me to do the above swap Proof. Nathan (Bram) wins a ride and a beer at the ANZAC cruise since I think he's coming up for it.

Tell me about it. We need a replacement for this:

Get in line. Me and some of the other lads already have first dibs on anything to replace the 327 eater.
