The other guy quoted me $160 for freight. I don't mind paying $160, it's still cheaper than buying a full reco one from a shop here....

Yeah, the place near where I live quoted me $500 for a full lowering, but with their springs. No shocks or front struts. If I supplied my own springs and shocks, it was still going to be 3 hours of labour, so still around the $300 mark. Might as well save me some coin, gain some knowledge on how to do this myself (for future reference) and have fun :)

Also on a plus, BA GT Body Kit just arrived :D :twisted:

Looks like a good diff there mate.
And getting one that fits straight in is far ezyer than the fuk around of getting stuff customozed to suit.

Yeah, just spoke with the guy selling it. It's the entire axel and all though, so frieght would be like $500.... I asked if he would just sell the diff centre as it's all I need really.
