alright its been a while since ive updated this thread.
a fair bit has changed and im now back in a stock mu. its bloody auto aswell :(

i guess il start the update with a pic of the mu with 35" muddies and 2" wheel spacers.

i abused it like that for quite a while nothing broke but the body was getting very messy. i had cracked the body mounts in the floor.
and the rust was starting to take its toll its unbelievable how quick stuff rusts where i live a new tv or computer will be rusted out within a year.

so off i went to nowra and sourced another mu body. 1100klms later i got home with this

so i took the motor out of my old black mu which i had rebuilt and put it in the new auto mu.
was a bit of a pain in the ass converting the fuel pump from manual to auto style but i got there in the end. (thanks to all who offered advice)

so i have no real plans for this new mu. may convert it to manual over the weekend. auto is no fun at all.

here is a few photo's ive accumulated so far

i did have a pic like that but i cant find it.
the yaris's bonnet was lower than the top of the tyre if i remember correctly.
i might try and mount these onto the new mu this weekend aswell.

also the black car is now my parts car so if anyone needs anything let me know. (i will be keeping the window switch's tho)
