Hey Doc....yeh...maybe drop her a couple more inches and wack on some chromed magnesium 18's
First mod will be 4 inch dobby springs and shocks, prooly followed closely by some 33 MTR's
...or should I go straight to 35's?
...also gotta do dual battery, wack on my LF240's and UHF from the Lux.
Screwy...paid 19K....tad high, but she's real tidy with a bit of fruit, so i'm reasonably cool with that....and my trade in was flogged to death also
thanks guys!

Go the 35s straight away, you will regret it later if you don't.

you Vic guys ever get any grief from the cops re running the 35's around town etc?
you here alot of talk about RWC's and insurance etc but rarely hear first hand horror stories down here in Melb/Vic compared to the QLD guys etc?

in vic, as long as your car is clean, not blowin to much smoke and has plates/lights etc you can pretty much get away with anything

no probs with th 35 s in vic , Im not running mud flaps either.Ive been pulled over once by the pigs, but that was because I didnt have a number plate on the front. He was pretty cool about it and I talked my way out of a ticket .The plate was off because I d been stuufing around with the winch til midnight the night before.......
