4X4 buggy coming soon
i was at a place today which is right into making kit cars and they were showing me pics of the plug they are making a mould from to use on a Suzuki
chassis. It looks much what I think is the Kalita if that is the one which has the wedge shape front. Anyway should be an awsome thing when it is
done. Oh will be fully regoed as well.

the short wheel base, tee top kalita was very cool, awsome aproach angle, it comes down to a personal taste (I prefer Manx's by far!) but the more
new buggy products on the road the better!
Andy is this a Yatla product???

Yep wibble it is a local product. Well local to me anyway :thumb And yeh maybe some will think it is ugly but shit I reckon it will kick ass of the
bitumen. Besides what is better then an ugly car that pisses all over the pretty ones.

No pics of the new buggy released yet as it is still in build up stage.

I have just finished my new off roader .I sat back & looked what was out there & did this
Sold my new $55,000 toyota 4x4
pissed off all my vw buggys , no room for the gear needed with two kids & wife that needs 20ltrs of water to wash the kids
I purchased a gx liberty wagon 1991 series 2 4x4
removed all the drive line ( ej22 4x4 duel range gear box )
Made a 75mm body lift kit , fitted 2wheel drive sedan rear struts with king springs , front 96> 11th 98 out back front struts on king springs , 215 x
70 r16 mud & snow tyres
purchased a RS turbo front cut from Japan , its an auto with manual select , air con power every thing .rear diff plated LSD from a wrx fitted a 316
ss system ( made it all my self ) list goes on .
all for less than it costs to buy a manx ( under 6k )
the motor has done 85,000ks and runs mint .
goes like 40 basteds as well
Others here have done the same
