This is one of the best phases of the project in my mind - when it all starts coming together. It's almost better than when it's completely done. Well done, it's been a long road but you've stuck with it.

Thanks for the honesty - I will be following your journey and it will be a good guide to the difficulty of the swap.

To be fair to the mechanic it sounds like the car was fine (aside from the gearshift) for most of the drive home, so unless he had the car to test at night etc, and assuming he hasn't screwed up the wiring, it might not be his fault. When I read the list of all the work you were doing some...

Can't you just bring it over, register it, and then change the springs as required?

Go and see King Springs on the Gold Coast. They will give you advice and make whatever you need.

How handy are you? Perhaps you could do all the legwork (remove old heater box, install new, bolt on compressor etc and let the AC shop run the lines, electrical connections and charge system? Might save a couple of grand.

I've been thinking about converting mine to a manual box - forgetting the 1 weekend internet bullshit, how long do you reckon this conversion would realistically take if you were working on it consistently say 10 hours per week? How hard are the instructions to follow for the average...

I've got a basic drum to disc kit from PST (Leed brakes) and they work great. Way cheaper than the Wilwood stuff and you can't see them anyway behind the Magnum 500s. You only need Wilwood if you have fancy open spoke rims or are a serious racer.

"The check's in the mail", one of the world's biggest lies. Right up there with "I won't cum in your mouth"

I'm interested in how the SPC UCA's are. I need to get some as I have positive camber I can't get rid of (long story). The local suspension guy didn't rate them, said they were made in China. He suggested Hotchkis as a better quality option. The SPC arms seem to have a lot of adjustments, I'd...
