AU's and BA's i have been told are heavier. the lane only has an extra 100 kg or so. so add subs etc to a falcon and its about even

hha well alot has and hasnt happened since my last post... swapped a digital camera for a 323 sedan with rego (currently for sale) off my brother so i have been drving that around and the fairlane had the amps removed (4 channel is stuffed, mono is in the 323) and the rear speakers were removed for a few days till i got new ones in the 323. but this week/next week it all goes back in and the ball joints are finally getting done after getting stuffed around and ripped off by my mechanic. i found a new guy who is 50% cheaper then my "friend" mechanic.

the dvd player and screen got part way installed when i realised just now much work ill need to do putting the dvd player and screen in. then i moved out with my gf so the car sits at my parents house while i live 10k's away. so its a huge effort to get me down there to get it done but i can assure you its sooo close now. a few more weeks

i got the steering wheel sorted finally, ended up getting one on ebay for 40 bucks delivered that night by courer. once its on the road i need to swap my tyres onto other 5 spoke rims i sold to a mate then brought back at half the price he paid for them :P

so with my next pay im getting ball joints fitted, wheel alignment and RWC. then pay after theat rego. so its more like a christmas present for myself. then i can piss off this 323 for good.
