nuffin much has been happening lately with my car still owe parents and my mate money so hopefully when my tax money comes i can pay them off, i have rego which is due next month 440 bucks up here for a 6 cylinder engine in queensland and my 800 dollar insurnace which will be going up as im letting the insurance company no about my mods i have done so im covered,

so while nuffin hasnt been happening with my car, me and my mate are getting ready to preform surgery on his el xr6,

the modifications we are doing as follows, note, not in any order either,

New engine, head work and a regrind cam, scored a ed block with roll master prefromance gear in it and acl flat top pistions , then adding the s14 super charger for a little bit more kick, been decked 80 thou the block

au s1 v8 lsd in it as well, also has a t5 box in it with a heavy duty clutch

au s1 irs suspension and ba front suspension. will have heaps of photos and maybe ill do up a thread on both suspension as we go

being repainted and body fixed up also as well in i think its a moonson blue,

full interior make over as well, all cleand and all put back,

so thats what im upto at this current moment while im paying people off, cheers

after i pay my mate off, my front suspension gets pulled out , steering rack etc, basically the whole front set up gets pulled out, have to suspend the enigne out of the car to get it out and for it to be easyer to work on,

Then it gets replaced with second hand brand new parts, then i will go get a wheel aligment, then no more worrys and driving around with my steering wheel not align properly, lol.

if everything goes good after that, i will be buying a momo wood grain steering wheel, replacing my sagging roof liner and a metal boss bonnet bulge while im down in melbourne with my mate,

bonnet bulge is 200 bucks and the momo sterring wheel is 250 bucks, my one on the car this present isnt road worthy, so i will be changing it,

then i can start saving for my paint job on my car, will get pics of what needs to be fixed and painted this afternoon if i get a chance, at the moment helping my mate do a ba engine swap, vn auto swap.

so i will be busy till xmas lollol

cheers

Looking much better with the new front end. 8-)

and definitely get the taillight frankly look so much better, than early ones.

With the boot spear by the way, just be aware, that the later ones, mount a little differently, and turns out the lid is a little different aswell.
If it does cause you a hassle, I've got a chrome s1 spear off a Fairmont if it's of any interest, but agreed on the s3 design was better, just something i came across not that long ago, and was surprised by.

another modder did this (well a full b series conversion) and found that if u dont change the dash and just wack ba door moulds in the doors wont close right. well the front ones anyway.
so maybe better off getting an interior from an au spac because that is nearly all blakc and painting the little things like the bubble bit in the middle ect.
