*general tidy up of wires in engine bay and under dash (its quite messy).
*put rear ultra low springs in.
*get front bumper resprayed, and not making the same mistake the old owner did by not using the correct primer (this is why it has flaked so bad).
*gilmer drive (YES! they actually do make them for the Gemmi!!!).
*new floor mats, possibly new carpet depending how bad it is when i get around to having a look.
*replace drivers side taillight with a new one i already have, (old one has a broken lense).

And of course it has already been branded with a Malicious intent sticker, for those of you who havnt heard me talking about it a really good mate of mine owns this brand of up and coming clothing label! hes based in perth but.

[walesy]

new springs to go in the rear this arvo, will get more pics today aswell

[walesy]

heres a couple more pics, the dash looks pink because the sun was so bright but its more of a purple colour

[HarmlessMuffinMan]

That looks neat dude, can't wait too see all you are going to do to it!

Going to look roflcopter with that rear window sticker

[minux]

My uncle owns one of these.

He is also a man lover lol.

[walesy]

haha now now craig no need to be like that

boypocket just a few tidy ups here and there nothing too major planned for it, but after i go back to perth and get bored might go with a rotor conversion

[some_guy]

Looks the goods.

I'm not a fan of the current wheels, but the Simmons should look cool.

[walesy]

yeah im not a fan of the wheels either, i might be gettin a set of 15in "pursuities" off a 2009 swift, they fit on these apparently, im not gunna buy genuine simmons for this haha, way too expensive for a buzz box run about, but something that looks similer

[GEN3RATD]

man those rims are horrible!

wires

[walesy]

yeah i was thinking 16in wires, gold spokes polished lip, but i like a nice 5 spoke for it more

[VK SL 3800]

Did someone say v6 conversion

[walesy]

haha nah if anything id go rotor

[ari666]

too much bling, not enough of this:

[walesy]

lol, yeah it would be nice but for now its to get me to and from work as cheaply as possible, and so far its working, ive been driving it non stop since saturday and only used half a tank of fuel, dunno how many ltrs a gemmis tank is but looks pretty dam small

[calais24/7]

fkk for 3 grand thats good as. nice daily

[walesy]

yeah man scored well, has a bit of rust under the windscreen rubbers and the drivers door, but other than that shes pretty straight

[Fun_Bucket]

Any plans to source out some replacement interior parts to bring it back to original?

What's the 2.0 motor from?

[some_guy]

Isuzu - So probably a Rodeo?

[ari666]

gemini=isuzi.

[Drawnnite]

haha nah if anything id go rotor

do it!

turboed triple rotors

[Pub247]

Lol if you want a cheap run about Rotors wont save you petrol . I agree with Ari either Turbo the 4ZE1 or do this....






Best gemini ever IMO

[nemesis_adrasteia]

rotor gem! #### yeah. theres a few getting around making big numbers

the queen street gem runs an RB30 from memory thats pretty sweet, pretty heavy over the front end.(noooow it shows the pic of the engine XD)

ive been in a gem that runs a NA 4ZE1, goes ####in hard. if i had my choice id go the 4ZD1 with an E1 head and turbo.

[nemesis_adrasteia]

also the stardard diff gears are 3.9:1

[walesy]
