Hey dude, Welcome aboard. Dont think youll be wanting to race anyone "4SLIPZ" with a 2.4 surf otherwise you wont have it for long :lol:
Jokes aside the dunedin boys are a good bunch of blokes and they run some great trips and events and theyll make you feel welcome.
Youll also find alot of good info on here if you ever need it. :D
Toyota Landcruiser FJ40, front and rear lockers, 35" simex.
Toyota FJ45 build in progress.
Tires are like boobs, they always look big until you have played with them for a while, then you just want a bigger set.

Re: Hi All Newbie From Dunedin! UPDATE!!!

Post by Caleb »

Well... Been awhile since ive posted up on here so an update is needed!!!

I cracked the head in my 2.4 surf. and upgraded to a double cab hilux 1987 with 35s bodylift and extended shackles...

http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos- ... 0854_n.jpg

The thirst for more power got to me and i went back to a car after selling this truck (still got the car... now broken)

and i went onto selling a car or two more and swapping (as us young ones do....) and then i ended up with this!!
