New Member with a Surf In Christchurch

Post by evilsurf »

Just recently got a 2.4 Turbo surf ( yeah i no not that great ) it so far has the front torsion bar wound up 50mm and the back has 50mm higher springs. I'm looking to get a snorkel for it and also some real shocks for it what ones are the best for a surf? Also im thinking of putting some 33s on it as well will just a 50mm spring lift be enuf to fit these on ? Also if anyone has a snorkel or some shocks for sale let me know . Also will be looking for some 33s as well if anyone has some going at a good price.

Would be a good idea to fit a big bore exhaust to help the heat escape, stops head cracking. Here is some info on fitting 33's.

2.5" would be a good upgrade, straight through with no muffler if you don't mind a bit of noise.
