Nice one mate, fits perfectly in place there , I'm guessing your not leaving it on your ute when your running around town etc due to security reasons hey? Or is are there plans for this [emoji848]

Well had an awesome time in the high country! Did loads and loads of driving, weather was great as were the campsites we found. Didn't think id broken anything till I got home and noticed the grill broken in my snorkel head, atleast thats an easy fix! Bash plates copped a hiding too but held up ok. Can't wait for the next one!Image how this for a view to wake up to!ImageImageImage

Happy new year all! The ute hasn't seen the shed for a while as I've been using it lol but my shed is full also. Replacing the turbos on a mates car.Image If anyone asks you to replace the turbos on a 300zx, tell them to go jump lol! She'll be sitting in my shed for a few more weeks waiting for parts but as soon as it out I'll be able to begin my spare wheel carrier.Image

I can't even imagine how cramped that engine bay would be having worked on a non turboed one!

Cramped is an understatement! Been a bike mechanic for 20 years so I'm used to it lol. And yes engine out to replace both turbos!

Still no room in the shed to do much so while waiting for parts for the pink thing I thought I'd get a start on the main hinge components for my spare wheel carrier. Needed some custom bushes and had some spare nylon blocks left over from my body lift. Turned them down freehand on my wood lathe, turned out ok I reckon! ImageImage
