Newby here!!
Hey there,
Andy here, a newbie to this website. I moved here from England about 18 months ago now, and only just been allowed to buy a rig!! I'm new to the 4x4 scene so will be asking a heap of questions.
After reading a few forum questions and abit of research, I've eventually bought a '92 RB30, 1 owner from new and is clean as a whistle. Has just under 300k but I heard these cars were built to last so didn't bother me too much as it has a full service with it.
Haven't named it yet but its a standard motor and I'm wanting to give it a new lease of life with a few modifications. I'm going to give it a mini service ie oil, filters, and water/coolent changes, plugs etc but need a bit more power. A new fuel (carby) set-up is a good place to start?
After that, who knows... what ever I do with it, i'll be getting a few pointers from you guys first.
Cheers
Andy

G'day Andy and welcome aboard mate. As the guys have already said, theres a fair few of us from Perth on here and some of us get together as often as we can for a bit of a wheel, so don't be shy.
Where abouts in Perth are ya? I made the big move over here 10 years ago and have not looked back or even been back since.

Welcome Andy!
It's great to hear the handbrake let you buy a rig! Happy skinned knuckles, dirt and sand in the eyes and countless beers while modifying the old girl
I look forward to seeing pics, and hearing about your adventures!
