well this car was doomed from day one. i thought since i was buying a car sight unseen it would be smart to get it from a "reputiable yard" when it got delivered to me in cairns first thing i noticed was this....... http://youtu.be/dItMZI5o2r0 the car was purchased from " BEST BUYT AUTO'S" i won't go into the full list of defect's but let's just say i coulden't sleep if i sold a lemon like this to someone! ![]() anyway i purchased a full calmini 3" lift kit to fit.... which is now for sale ![]() then 2 nights ago this happened ![]() So needless to say the suzi build is on the backburner but now that i have discovered this site i will be a frequent visitor and enjoy reading all the tech and viewing all the build's parting note spread the word DO NOT SPEND ANY MONEY AT BEST BUY AUTO'S unless you want a shit box then to be told to fuck off when it fall's apart! cheers Starky |

Hey Starky, bad news about drowning the new bus, but fark that's alot of smoke!!!! i'm guessing the adaptor kit is just the black chunk of steel with the 3 holes & the shiny round thing next to it, lazy buggers could have atleast welded the chunk of steel onto the RHS diff drop bracket. |
