Yes was definately good to see the Grey finally make its way back out onto the street for the first time in what 3yrs i think.

All the hard work pays off seeing and feeling it finally see tarmac again hey Dave but not fully until it has those magic number plates back on it heh. Thats when the single malt comes out heh.

Hell yeah, that would be great. Would love to see more pics on the AU irs conversion.

It is almost a bolt up jobbie...need to change 1 panel under the car, modify the sway bar brackets, and install rear mounts, modify shock towers, replace 1 tank strap(althou dave wont as he is not using the petrol tank), remove spaceer from front mounts so IRS cradle fits in. there is a little washer welded in there that has to be removed.

My car has finally been engineered with the AU IRS and AU front end stuff and no dramas, was pleasently suprised at how easy it was...


Some more detail on the above points would be great.
