Lexus V8 duel cab kombi Ute f/s Bne
yes, i`ve lost my Licence, (too many speeding fines) so time for me to sell the thing.
for anyone who doesn`t know this car, it has an Alloy, Quad-cam, 32valve, Lexus, 4litre, injected, V8 fitted, with BMW 2600lb clutch kit, & Albins
gears inside a thick-rib 2litre gearbox, with a Pelquin Limited-Slip Diff, & fairly tall top gear so it just cruizes on 2000rpms on the
freeways
it`s also been fitted with oversized Chrome-molly drive flanges, porsche CV joints & BMW 7series E32 axles with oversized & hardened outer
stubs.
it does need some shocks all round , the fronts are getting quite sad, the back shocks are new but are just not up to the job so could do with some
decent off-road type 4x4 shocks i suspect
the body is quite fair , with very minimal rust spots, it has had a 3mm steel checker-plate floor plate fitted well before i bought it about 6 or 7
years ago
it`s got a pair of new Saas sports seats & there is no rear seat , just a dog box with matress
the rear tray is lined with alloy checker-plate, & some really nice shiney alloy drop sides & tail gate
there is a decent bull-bar with 2x big-motha spot lights , with the radiator & thermo-fan mounted to it too
There is 4x (2-sets) of heavy duty Rhyno roof racks mounted to the roof, so you can carry a house up there (my intentions were to fit a roof mounted
camper)
it has had a slight lift in the front end & the rear has 31.5 tyres so it`s actually pretty high off the ground, tyres are really good all round,
& i`ve recently fitted a couple of new ball joints, but one more does need attention
all the lights & wipers & horn & everything work fine, there probably isn`t much to do for roadworthy/safety cert, however there is a
crack in the windscreen so it will need replacing & hence i won`t be supplying a safety cert with it, so it will come without rego
it`s also got a cranky kits subaru starter on it, so it starts first go every go, without fail & sounds awesome!!! (Thanks Paul) & there is a
spare one comes with the car.
this thing is pretty awesome car really & goes very hard, it has been chipped up & rev limit raised to 7000rpms, last dyno-d at 210hp at the
rear wheels
it has a tow bar
also will come with 2x spare wheels (14x8") with rally type off-road tyres fitted.,,, if you want them
any more info wanted/needed then please don`t hestitate to call me 0407 135 656
car is located in Murarrie , Brisbane, 4172,,, i have been using it as my daily drive car for years & years but now after suffering a series
massive heart attacks & die-ing a few times & now recovering over the last 6 months or so, i just get back on the road & now lost my
licence... so i`m a bit stuffed & need to sell her
EDIT--> Price drop , now $18K
Matt

Could it be registered in NSW?
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

i couldn`t see why not,,, probably need some work to make (or buy) some rear seats,
obviously need to replace the windscreen,
i`m not sure about the lifted front end but it`s easy enough to remove & make std again
the engine conversion has been blue-plated (Approved by the Qld Transport dept) so i can`t see a problem there
* just the few other things i suggested above with the clutch peddle thingy & the shocks etc & you should be good to go
But,,, i`m not NSW dept of TPT rules savy so i can`t really say yes or no, but i expect it should be no problem
i`d love to deliver it for you but i`m sorry i have no license
Oh---> & the surf-boards don`t come with it i`m sorry 8)

This thing "may" be at Valla again this year (if anyone is interested)
it`s only a "Maybe" at this stage tho, but still i`m currently working on the buggy
hope to have her running in a few weeks & if the buggy runs by Valla-time
then i`ll be there with this kombi too

After living in all eastern states except Vic, I can let you guys know that mods are way harder to get approved in QLD than NSW, so if it got the all
clear from the tight arses up there in QLD, it should be fine in NSW. Still, it cost only a little to get an RACQ inspection to confirm it for you.
