    Thanks man,it took alot of effort to get to where it is....Unfortunatly it hasnt all been without a trade-off...

    Tip of the day: If you do follow a similar path make sure you spend more time with your gurl than on your car.....because if she decides to leave theres a high chance you will loose all that hard work anyway =)

    Cheers,
    Paul
    I can host them full res on my site should you need that. Also, have you thought about a C36 rear bumper? Seems like it would go well with the front of the car and continue the line of the C36 side skirts.

    there is always a heap of things to change or that you dont like. modding is a curse!! cant stop the mods.
    Im sorry to hear dude.. you must be a bit of a wreck.. you were with her for a while.
    id take ya out for some beers if I were in New Zealand bud.
    yeh.. Im making the 360km drive each way still.. every weekend!
    long drives man.. long drives!!.. just had to replace the diff the other week.. pinion blew apart and took out the ring gear also. had to get towed about 260km back home! but all fixed up.. got a used diff for a good price.
    so I now have a spare diff (minus the pinion and ring!!) that I may get some 3.73 for!! just a thought.

    gotta get my boy pissed after such a bad thing man.
    oh yeh.. trust me, I put a hell of alot of km's on my car since my gurl has been away at school. i do about 720-750km a weekend!
    oh yeh.. it was basically in the middle of no-where! but Im a member of an autombile club.. so free tow most of the way. still had to pay for 60km of the tow.. $140!! but all good.
    yeh I cant ditch my car man.. too much time and money into her. gotta keep it running.
    so got a new.. well used diff for it. workin well so far. stock gear is 3.27.. so Id like to do 3.73 or 3.83 I think.

    Im pretty sure the diff from a c43 has a different ratio. if not I can just find a pinion and ring gear that will fit my housing.

    is ur transmission auto or manual?
    if it's auto, dont u wanna try the diff from a manual first? the manual diff is at 3.67 which i think is very short for me.
