    just a note you can put the pics in the post by copy and pasting the IMG code of each picture off photobucket instead of sending just the link

    I'll take some better pictures of it when he fixes the gearbox, it's a pretty cool ute. Orange like an.... well like an Orange;p infact it's metallic so perhaps like Fanta :P

    hi guys sorry for a delay in updates.
    so far the first trans has died. i now have replaced it with a vl turbo manual. i ended up getting a manual tailshaft to suit a non turbo and got a hardy spicer made yolk to suit the turbo box. i also found a vs manual pedal box clutch master etc to suit the getrag 5 speed so i could just bolt it in and connect it straight up to the vl slave. i made it driveable and took it for a quick lap of my driveway (100m) before calling it a night last night. today i limped it to work so i could complete the exhaust (as it was straight out the dump pipe) and also the cooler pipe work. i hope to get a base tune made up so i can drive it while it is boosting with out the stress of killing it. when its dry enough ill make a couple of vids showing off the stats of the ute and post them on youtube. ill post the direct link when i do it.
