AWESOME STUFF. Puts my confusion at getting a LSD into a single spinner Futura wagon to shame.

That is superb. Jeremy Clarkson would just love you.

there is going to be no fuel tank . its running dedicated gas so no fuel tank is required ,
as the empty space leaves room for the Resinator's - 1 on either side .
HEHE bring on the DUEL 3 inch zorst :P

That Is a fantastic upgrade mate, This does mean you dont need spacers for the rims now right?

Do you have plans for the front rims. As in BA stub axles roters and breaks, I here that is doable.

Good work

Josh

I'm assuming he's getting complete brake upgrade which will give him the offset he wants. More info on the brake upgrade!

Great job so far!

The AU apparently used some of the EF/EL rear floorpan so theoretically the IRS should be close to a bolt-up fitment. Almost. :)

I'm keen to see how easy an engineer's approval is to get on this.
