Hi all!

[GROU3E]

Hey guys, names Areo, live in Auckland New Zealand. Been the owner of my 91 y60 shorty for about 8 - 9 months now. Started life as a completly standard truck the TD42 non turbo motor. Brought the truck with the intention for it to get a few bush pin stripes and dents haha. Started off with a 3 inch suspension lift with adjustable front and rear panhards, gearbox spacer kit, shorter rear lower trailing arms and adjustable uppers. Next was fitting the 35" Kumho Kl7s and 15" by 10" steel rims. With a few guard rubbing issues I then fitted a 2 inch body lift which gave me just enough clearence. Along the way I have made a few cosmetic changes. Most recent upgrade was fitting a turbo to the beast, So I went ahead and pieced together my own kit, Scr320 turbo (t3) and a top mount log style manifold with a 44mm tail external wastegate, running at 20psi. So many more mods I have done to this truck and it has become my right pride and joy, looking forward to gaining some knowledge from this forum.

See you all out there
