    The other guy in Towong was trying to stitch you as a 2" lift doesn't require engineering.
    Thinking $800 would be more ball park, Cuppa was $1500 I think for GMV upgrade, not sure if
    pricing is set across the board or they charge what they like. They take in things like travel etc
    04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there

    That's what I was trying to tell him but we ended up in a slinging match over who was most qualified to answer the question, apparently as a mechanic I don't know s#$t.

    Irish, his phone number is 03 9729 9776 or Mob 0408 373 536 and he is located at 15 Edelmaire st, he has a workshop there at the back of some other buildings and does inspect a lot of sweet looking mustangs . The cost was 880 for the inspection, but had to get additional heat guard around the brake pipes on the right hand side plus labour which cost a little more. They will check the car for full roadworthiness so try to solve any other issues prior to going and seeing them. I didn't have a GVM upgrade but wish I had.
