Hi all,

been ages since a post or update on what ive been doing to my car so may as well put some pics and stuff up

since mid last year ive used the car a few times.. but mianly been doing upgrade and stuff so far ive:
- Built a disk brake rear end and installed a bias valve
- rewired all my spotlights with better gauge wire
- bult up and installed a tran-x close ratio 4-speed
and so far so good it all works really well
- also ive just re-built a really good head ive had under the bench for a year or so with manly valves Kent RL31 cam etc which will botl onto a new bottom end im just about to start

and on the way is a tran-x LSD anda 4.7 CWP so that should be done in a few months i cant wait to have it all done...

Oh also ive built a Celica rally car (sainz replica) for my mate who decided to roll it on its first event...doh..

heres a few random shots of the disk rear end and what not.. plus for nostalgic reasons a few shots of her when i built it with my jungle gym roll cage hehe and the build of the celica i did .. and the after math!

cheers

It really was a Sainz replica Celica, right down to the roll. Just like Sainz in Perth all those years ago
