The city turbo we bought from QLD arrived yesterday afternoon. Looks ok, only little rust, and interior is pretty clean. About time we can finally start working on our project car :)

Never, but we like it like that!
Just saw the fucking maddest video on the news. California highway patrol chasing a stolen Jeep for no lights, thing takes off, hits about 150 and becomes airborne and takes out the wall of a bank! It was sick!

No, I agree. Just couldn't find any details of the story I saw on the news. Damn :(:(

I've had late shifts this week, so we've been working on the car before work. yesterday I had the day off, so spent a few more hours there, and transported some of the parts home.
today cousin is out, so I've just been doing other things...buying parts..gearbox oil, brake pads for sis....greased up my sunroof, topped up oil, and just finished swapping the "better" seats into the new city...
not to mention this morning unpacking mum's civic which was full of parts, cleaning the back yard LOL...and
yeah.... gotta fold the clothes...
having a breather now....whew :p
