well, ive started, it sprung under, and standard diffs, cause i was thinkng about registering it...but i dunno

should i rego it?
should i not?

should i go hard from here?

ARGGHHHH all the BS legalities :(

currently i am building it to be "approved" and then mod it, BUT if i decide against rego, i can do the mods i want from here ;) hydro and shnit

here is what i am thinking: (5 year plan) ;)
full hydro steer
a-frames front and rear
volvo diffs
disc converted
110" wheelbase
42" TSLs
beadlocked wheels
hydro active suspension
lots and lots of tube
bonnet
basic tub of body
fuel cell
central winch

last one for today:

the motor and gearbox next weekend, and then no more progress until the double gearboxes and the double transfer cases and the tub and suspension stuff are gunna be sorted

hopefully running by christmas day 8)

you can clearly see the motor mounts for the BIG 4 cylinder, yeah thats right a whopping 4 cylinders of fun and enjoyment, with maybe a little turbo on the side, for that added B00ST

its all about BOOST, and a nice 60 series crossover power steering conversion on the WAY ;)

who the man!!

at the moment, it is getting a 3B turbo, purely because i have two sitting on the floor and need the shed space!! (GOT RICE B|TCH)
its a 4 cylinder 3430cc diesel 3.4L

down the track it will either get a supercharged SC400 4.0L V8 quad cam, or a twin turbo supra motor (read twin turbo hilux motor thread)

(ruff if you want that 60 series housing, NOW is the time, ill ring you and tell you then im dumping it!) its takeing up valuable shed space and the tribe has spoken

Do these things make any torque at low RPM?

who cares, have a read what low range i can put it too, it will hardly matter if they dont make any power, or dont make power before 12000 RPM, its still not gunna be moving anywhere ;)

but the eight is ok, and makes it low down, the hilux motor is a bit higher up
