i have the ducting here, bought it with good intentions, never used it

And tomorrow is International Student Day. So break out those two minute noodles, dont wash you hair and wear what would have been your parents fashion

at least that way you could alway get it back, right

damn, and only 900ks away. Still, I'll see how the auction goes and check airfares

Yeah they are great cars arent they Colin. Only wish I could say the same about the MB's, I just can't find anything worth stripping them for

eh heh, I have figured as much through my readings of the forums that Hatches are horrible ugly dog houses until you want an engine, or a gearbox, or easier to find spares etc
(I'm probably not the best advocate for them though, i would drop my hatch in a second for a Super Carry)

Good on you Bretto, we need more Hatch support (not mechanical) around these parts.

yeh, agreed, i pulled m f8b + gearbox out by hand a couple of weeks ago, but definatley much easier with the hoist

very good

there isnt anything specifically listed for the mb's/hatch, but Clarke have one that pretty much suits the bill to withing mm's. Grab one out and compare it with stock/catalogue, you will find one pretty close. the thing that turned me off was the price. I dont think rarespares has much if anything ...

Update: it is a brumby

dont know if thats where i would put the turbo, but, each to their own
