122,500km. I've got it on carsales priced in line with what you see there, but PM me if you want to make a deal.

Well now that there is a distinct non-zero chance of moving to Europe... wonder if anyone wants to buy this thing off me?

Took a friends ute to go get the car, wheels in the tray. When I picked up the HSV wheels tho, 2 fronts in the boot, 2 rears on the back seat on some old towels.

Kawasaki ER6N L, and I definitely have not de-restricted it...

That half has a ding, makes for bad pics ;)

Getting alright at this camera thing

Paint is on the list, if and when it becomes affordable. Until then, 13 year old factory mismatch it is...

So I got a new toy to live with the SS.

Not dead yet! Hickson Road, Canon 500D

It lives again. Now to save and get the dent in the ass fixed.

Some pharqwit reported me to the strata, so no more garage work. It's going in to get a busted subframe bolt drilled out/removed/other wise gotten rid of. So I cleaned it up... kind of wanted it to be the best looking car in the workshop.

Big big brakes, nice work. I should have done that from the start on mine.

These weekends have been busy.. Rear springs: swapped the SLHD for standard SL. Feels nice to have some compliance back in the ride. Front shocks were boned, so they go swapped out. Dust boots died in the process and I didnt have new ones. Oh well. Roof lining was falling out, so I gave...

Duplicolor UV - it's step 2 of their resto kit but you can buy it on its own. https://www.repco.com.au/en/car-care-panel/car-care/headlight-restoration/dupli-colour-hlr300-headlight-clear-coat/p/A9634744

Not letting **** hold me back, we're moving on. Headlights were getting bad - UV fading/hazing, whatever, and not just on the surface. So I replaced em. Testing: Complete: 2 weeks later, UV resistant clear coated to hopefully stop the new ones going the same way.

Where'd you find the proper GXP bumper? I should do that to mine given it needs repairing anyway.

It's the year that keeps on giving! Young bloke hit me with a company 4x4 in a carpark...

Looked nice today:

'tato cam special, but it sounds like this from the outside.

On: One man bleeding trick: Test driven:

6 months later

I had tried to get rid of the football-grip texture on the dash panels, was a mixed success. The passengers side worked well, the drivers did not. So it was dash out all over again to put the standard ones back in there. Took the chance to install the IQ kit USB/aux port in the glovebox as well...

SF01's really give it a touring car vibe, nice work.

Mine came with a new set of breather pipes to make it all work with the OTR, although I went MAFless. You want to get behind the MAF so that hole is lookin' likely. My tune was $800, done remote, on the road. No cam so pretty straightforward business.

Really wants a tune when you get an OTR done. If you're planning headers and exhaust later, you'll be better off getting it all done at once.

That's a good bit less than mine cost, so yeah jump on it.

+1, I've got one with the side panels, good gear.

Man having some extra doodad to sit on your dash somewhere would absolutely **** me to tears... hope it works out for you.

I tried the aftermarket stereo thing in my SS, wasn't a fan. I had the alpine integration kit - and I'll tell you touchscreen ac controls suck major ass. It's one of the reasons I ended up going with an IQ conversion - which has its own issues but having factory ac controls doesn't seem like a...

You can't find it at supercheap or any of the chain stores - I had to order it online.

The first set of seats I chucked in my SS had that exact issue, I used Leatherique. The treatment is 2 stage, the oil goes on first, I left it about a week, then the cleaner. In my case it softened the leather up but it didn't unshrink it - once it gets to a certain stage it's very very hard...

A note, on anyone who ever considered doing a single zone manual AC to dual zone climate control conversion. It is possible, it can be done. I just pulled it off in my SS. Get the factory workshop manual or some other guide that tells you how to pull the dash out because that's how deep into...

That's some proper destruction.

Funny thing, he's actually one of my neighbours.

E1 Clubsport staggered - Yoko Advan V105 tyres

Eastern Creek results: 13.22 @ 110mph 2.22 60' Great mph, lame 60'. Car is just mega heavy and hard to get off the line cleanly.

Reminds me of my MY09 SS a little, need to catch up on the engine work though. Nice car.

Better, much better. What I found more obvious was support while cornering is worlds apart in these. During some mild-pace work on old Pacific Highway I found I was falling out of the ss seats a lot.

Never was totally happy with the SS leather seats in this thing. Solved that recently. Needed to get power on the passenger side for the new setup, went to the trouble of sourcing a complete body loom, just to find the factory solution is to just splice two wires into one and tape it up. If I'd...
