Picked this up today its a bit rough but a nice daily driver to haul my family around, has a few small battle scars just about everywhere but hard to notice til you get close doesn't bother me too much anyway. Has OTR with mafless, line pressure upped, extractors and some kind of sports exhaust will give more details tomorrow when I get it on the hoist as well as some better pics, has International interior fitted but its a regular wh. Going in for a RWC tomorrow I know for sure its too low, too loud and the wheels are too big, also abs light comes on. Happy to join the stato club hehe.

hehe yep gonna have to take em off for rwc I think, i will keep em aside for cruising and put lesser rims on for rwc and daily duties. Predicting for rwc: too low, too loud, no airbox no maf, abs module, air ride is disconnected I don't know if thats a roadworthy thing.

RWC update:

both engine mounts.
car must retain 2/3 of original suspension travel (too low).
both rear rims damaged Buckled not cracked, good news :) picked up a set of cheap vt ss wheels and tyres for daily.
Tailshaft centre bearing.
ABS light stays on.
T/C light stays on.
Slack in gear selector (needs a tighten hopefully). (edit 4 months on: the shifter could not be adjusted and the gearbox eventually exploded, built by raceshift the sticker said :p)

Starting work on it monday gonna need some $$$$ thrown at it lol, lucky I picked it up cheapish

Very nice man, I always liked the WH stato's. I'm loving the supersports, they set the colour off nicely.
