crazyfiggi - October 30th, 2006 at 09:06 PM

sean... i work neer the holden wrecker, what car do you pass me in? I will keep a look out for you.

Pete... i have most of the parts for my conversion now and was going to start it over christmas, but im now going camping down the south coast then and need my van for that. Hopefully early next year i will get it done.


Bizarre - October 31st, 2006 at 07:43 AM

What are you going to put in??


crazyfiggi - October 31st, 2006 at 08:32 PM

Its just getting a ej22. All i want from this van is a nice comfy daily driver which is good on fuel and very reliable for trips up the coast. Once i fit the motor it will be finished. I wouldnt mind a respray at some stage tho.

oval TOFU - November 1st, 2006 at 09:46 PM

pete wood - November 2nd, 2006 at 07:42 AM

you should talk to boof about a shortened sump for it. he does a really nice one. you won't regret going to a subie, you run air con as well if you want with it. :smirk:


sgetty - November 2nd, 2006 at 06:22 PM

how many cars have you had?

deon


crazyfiggi - November 2nd, 2006 at 08:21 PM

Way to many deon, lol. A total of 8 that have been on the road and another 4 that havent. Atm i have the caravelle, a 71 super which i need to move on and a 66 bug. The 66 is going to be wild, i will get it to the nationals next year. Very narrow up front, raised tranny and on air.

Looks good!

BTW: Did you have any probs fitting the audi rims? and what springs did you use?

Thanks


crazyfiggi - November 3rd, 2006 at 09:39 PM

Its got just kampers 60mm springs, i wanted the HnR kit from t3 tuning but it was just to expensive. The audi rims needed the center hole enlarged and i needed to use longer wheel studs, im going to fit some spacers on the rear at some stage soon to fill the rear arches out a little bit more.

Thanks for the info.

Good to see some more modified T3's getting around.

I believe they will only grow in popularity as the T2's grow thinner on the ground, as do they themselves.
