New to this whole sitting high up thing

Post by NUFC »

Hello all. The names Ryan I live in Wellington and I just sold a typeR WRX STI and got a KZN130 Surf. Got bitten by the 4WD bug driving a mates truck round Wellingtons south coast for a fishing trip. The surf is a 1-kz with a little lift, snorkel and winch etc. Only down side is it still has A/T's on not muds and it's auto. Hopeing i can still have some fun with it though as i've had it round devils gate a few times already (owned it 1hr before i had it over there and nicely dirty :D ). Keen to get out and meet new people as often as possible but shift work is a pain to work around. I'll try post up some pics when I get back to my own computer.

I am aware of this thread and agree fully "use it properley or loose it". Just to clarify the truck didn't get dirty via going off track and messing around, it got dirty through water splashing up from a few pot holes and the small streams that you go through and dust sticking to it from the dry trail. That statement was more of a im happy my truck is dirty because all 4wd's should be statement :D. That being said it's much better than my mates belief of its not a truck unless you have the smell and stains from deer and fish in the back lol.
