G'day All...
Thought I might make a thread to get me moving!
I got my cruiser a touch under 6 months ago. My 7 year old daughter decided she wanted to go to Alice Springs this year, so I got the perfect car to do it in (slowly...).
It's in great condition for its age, I don't think it's seen too much time at the beach, rust is a big issue with secondhand 4wd's in Australia.
I got it off a young guy who'd had it for a couple of years, but couldn't afford the fuel for his 80km return commute to work. He got a Honda integra.... He must be bored now.
It had done around 320,000km's, which for the 1HZ just starting to run in.
As it stood it had the following when I got it;
33" KO2's on 16" alloys
2" lift, Monroe gas shocks in front, not sure what in the back. Unsure of brand of spring.
Extractors, high flow cat and slightly larger than stock exhaust... It sounds strong.
Dual fuel tanks
It's got a swing away wheel carrier (home made) that actually works pretty well
Barn doors
Alloy side steps
Little screw on rubber flares
dual batteries with a cheap isolator
9" LED Spotlights
Oricom 80ch UHF radio with GME antenna
Roof console with interior lights
AM CB and antenna mount central in roof
120W solar panel
Wiring to rear for cig plugs, engel specific plug and rear internal lighting
Pioneer double din bluetooth head unit
Upgraded speakers in front
6" speakers in barn doors
10" Pioneer Sub and Amp
Plastic bull bar "Smart Bar" - Meant to be a bit kinder to wildlife when you hit it... The birds I've accidentally collected haven't stopped to thank me though!
I've got some planned... some more exciting than others, I'll update on here what I've already done over the next few days
Happy for comments, ideas, thoughts and tips guys...
Cheers,
Joe
