    cant say i remember exactly, but in an easy put way, the bore is allready vz spec on the outer edge and the ve spec is on the inner edge, so it essentially is a lip, just need to machine them through flat

    Man that looks awesome. I've been waiting for you to get some pics of the new dash for a while now. That's exactly what I want done to mine. I've been talking with greg and hopefully should be getting the work done quite soon. If it turns out like yours I'll be stoked.

    Is it detracting at first getting used to the cool new needles?

    i should say, i had the whole dash done white (so switches, buttons etc etc) the screens and guage dials blue, dials only because of the morphing tacho, aux input mod to stereo, and 4ch rca outputs...

    Very well done Andy, possibly the best looking wagon I've seen! (once you loose those burnout rims on the back )

    Tyre profile looks perfect to me, fills the guard out nicely and will give you that little bit more ride comfort. If you can get away with it without it scraping stick with it
