Hi all,

I have made a thread in Intro's and General discussion for my RX STi project,
http://www.perth-wrx.com/vb/general-...i-project.html
but thought I would start one here for other car's I have/had & loved.
May include a few sneaky pic's of my other rides that I'm passionate about.

Cars I own

RX:


As far as mod's go, see build thread above.

Datsun 1600 (will be for sale very shortly):

(before)




(now)


Mods:
L18 (nissan 1.8l) engine & gearbox conversion.
Exhaust
new suspension & brakes
Stereo- full mtx thunder 8000 sries competition stereo professionally installed. 3 splits in front doors, 2 drivers in rear parcel shelf, with 2X12" woofers in custom enclosure in boot with extra battery set-up.
Paint job- when it was the toxic green colour it looked very average, i have done a bit of body work to it, and wanted a colour a bit more subtle, so it's now matt black- just a rattle can job DIY as I had intentions on doing a SR20det conversion to it, and was going to get re-sprayed professionally.
I have since lost interest/motivation for the project so I will be selling the car as is.


Cars previously owned

VX series 2 SS



mods:
Cam and valve's done (lumpy as f*ck)
Headers
Pacemaker extractors through to lukey 3" exhaust
OTR Intake
Diff and LSD
Shift kitted automatic
Strut braces
All done, & tuned by Active Automotive.
I miss this car, was in such good nick & extremely quick. Only had 78xxx km on the clock when i sold it last year. Had to go due to going back to uni, insurance & petrol was obnoxiously expensive for a 20yr old student...
Also didnt have the time or money if the po-po slapped a sticker on her, was far too loud, cam used to rattle mum and dad's windows when I pulled up :/

Bikes

Roadie- Cervelo SLC-SL CSC team edition
(ignore bubble tea, was a reco ride)

Have swapped out full groupset for Sram red, Wheels for Fulcrum racing 5's
Bars and Stem are FSA ergo carbon.

Track(my baby)- Koga Kimera
Training wheels in



Race wheels in, ignore the bunter riding it...


Bought as a frame,
Bling I put on includes:
Prologo saddle
Shimano Pro series Stem (Theo Bos signature series)
Teschner Sprint bars
Easton EA70 Seatpost
Shimano Dura-acr bottom bracket & cranks
Handbuilt 36 spoke training wheels (Dura-ace hubs, DT swiss alpine spokes, Mavic open pro rims)
Ultegra pedals
Izumi sprint chain
Dura-ace cogs
Fsa Chain rings

Fixie- Old AIS columbus road frame i re-sprayed with pearl green/purple/blue, and rebuilt with random parts into a fixed gear commuter.


Will ad some more cool things as they are acquired

Cheers

Josh

It owes me more than I'll get for it, I know.
I'll pm you with some details, don't want to put it up for sale until I get the starter motor done (happening as we speak).
