Hey mate Dave (WaghoonEF) on the forums done it. Not sure if he wants his price splashed around everywhere or not so I will let him answer that if he wants. But it was cheap. :thumbsup:

Don't think it is going to happen tho. I think the money would be better spent on a tune for the wagon. :good:

Really does look good. I've contacted WaghoonEF to do some work for me but unfortunately he says he's too busy now to commit to anything for a while.

Ok so thought I better put something here. I am terrible with updating these things I have done heaps to the wagon driveline wise basically but all that is about to change again.

So for starters I still haven't got a proper pic of the wagon with the dark argents on it :blush: but I do have this one from when I put the 20inch argents on.
Image

I had on it for a little while but I went back to 19"s as I think they look better, they make the car sit a bit lower and they definitely ride better.

This is the latest project for the wagon. F6 Tornado Ute. 6 speed manual 320rwkw
Image

I plan on putting everything I can out of this ute into my wagon so it should be damn awesome when its done I can't wait. 6 Speed manual is the part I am looking forward to the most. :yahoo:

When you finish the 6speed manual you can then do a zf conversion. At which point you will sell it, to me :)

Yeah sounds like a plan mate. But some how I don't like your chances I am going to love this being manual I always wanted it 6 speed. :P

I am thinking about putting my old driveline in another wagon just to sell to make a bit of money back on this. You could always buy that :thumbsup:

Ok so the ute finally turned up today :dance

Only had about 20-30min or so to stuff around with it today. Go most of under the bonnet stuff done ready for the motor to come out.

Ah pretty blue will look really nice under my wagon bonnet :yummy:

Ok so a little bit of an update got a few hours today to do a few things. Got the motor and box out and I am dropping the tailshaft off to get shortened in the morning so hopefully everything going well I am aiming to have the wagon finished by the end of next week. :yahoo:

Little bit of an update picked up my tailshaft today, center bearing was stuffed so they had to replace that there goes another $270 or how ever much it was :(

Was debating about putting the fpv starter button in then I thought bugger it might as well. Will probably get sick of it in a week.

Old motor and box are out. What a pain in the arse all the gas injection wiring was. Last time I try to hide it and make it look a bit neat :banghead:

Image

Hopefully get all pedal box, gear shifter all the fuel gear installed tomorrow. Just basically get everything done and ready so I can drop the motor and gearbox straight in Saturday.

Its Alive. :yahoo:

Ok so after a long weekend of work it is finally running. No thanks to the constant rain. :banghead:

Got a few little things to work out like getting the gas sorted doesn't seem to want to run on the 3rd cyl for some reason, Still have to put the fuel pump in as I am just running it on the 10psi tune until I get that in and I have to bleed the brakes again pedal is still pretty spongy.

Other then that it runs great, completely different car and so fun to drive.

I was to flat out to take any pics in between but here as some pics of the finished product.
