Haha. only other option is remove air con. or get smaller air con condensor.
Spottie mounts on top of the bar looks mm away can they be reduced?

Sorry man had a closer look on the phone they looked way close zoomed up they don't look bad

some knucklehead in a suzuki must have 'cleared' this tree, because the only thing that could fit in that gap is a zuke or a quad.
anyways. as i drove down the track not seeing a thing (6am and it was covered in scrub). . . i hit it at over 40kph, front of the car launched into the air and off the bank. i thought i was going over for a sec. and since i didnt remember what was down that bank (im not that familiar with the spot) i turned left hand down and anticipated a very swift bumpy ride/fall into the riverbed(pretty steep drops out there). but alas i was lucky and got caught broadside on some trees.
spent all morning getting it out. some minor damage. nothing to worry about.
Thats a funny angle to be on mate,glad your not hurt and no real damage
Would have been funny seeing your face while you were going over ...hahahah, OK, maybe not. Glad it wasn't a big drop off and as Roofy said bloody good angle to be on. Glad you're all OK!Quote:

ha, whenever i get stuck my winch doesnt seem to save me. this time i couldnt winch forwards at all. so needed another car. last time i stuck it in a river and buried it, i couldnt winch either. nothing to winch off. great way to spend a few grand. buy a winch that hasnt actually saved me yet. HAHA.

and fitted my alloy race radiator.
sold old walker evans and 17in treps.
hopefully get my new set today.:first:
3in stainless intercooler pipework getting stripped and tigg'd tomorrow.
also bought a 12mm race injector pump. currently in the mail.
will see if i can get a note from this trombone. . . . .
still have plenum, airbox, injectors, eboost2 controller, 4in exhaust, clutch and some ceramic coating to go before i see any good results im guessing. but at least its making progress.
Still going with this one.. I thought she was going for a new project???
So what air box are you looking at? Or going custom?
custom. will have an ls1 panel filter in it, 4in inlet and outlet, -will sit in the far passenger corner where the vacuum canisters used to be.Quote:
