Ok - I got me a whoooooole heapa MQ MK Parts including a SPOA Conversion set up.... I am a little over parts prices for patrols too and was wondering if you can put patrol springs and diffs in a zuki???
Does the additional weight cut back performance a lot - 1.3 is pretty small motor (could be worse and be an SD33 diesel but)
what is required? Is it road legal with custom flares? Am I dreamin or better off sellin it all for $700 bucks?
I know the cross over hi steer is defunct if I do it so what is solution for Zuki?
Cheers

Anythings possible , theres a zook going around with MQ diffs , spring under and 1.6efi . Would be a tough machine, no doubt others will be able to fill you in on the rest.

Yes, you are correct, also Sierrajim/vitarajim is building a similar project...engineering cert is not likely, but not impossible, best to get in writing what an engineer will let you do.

Oh and one lil thing SUA is easier yes???? If so it might be cool having low slung rock crawler ?
I only buy/sell MK/MQ Diffs complete for like $150 each so I wouldn't care about trashin em - got 3 sets sitting at home with more in parts...

less fabbing needed to fit spua, as I believe nt sierras fit the front with no mods to spring hangers, but yep, check out the nuki, sierra jim build.

Question for the Vic guys...
I saw a NT Zook Camo ute driving round Box Hill about 3 days ago with the rego LJX? The same rego as the buggyish thing!
Has it been de registed?

Critta (the buggy) is now dubbed the trailer princess.
The snow cammo ute is his better half's car.

From memory, Matt @ M&M has them under his 'non rego'd zook.
