        The awkward moment when you think your prado is coming along nicely, then you read Joey's rig build up!
        haha seriously though top job Joey, what a great read and a few things I will be doing to mine.
        Well done.

                My god Joey,

                I would hate to know what all your mods cost you.

                But that being said it gives me lots and lots of ideas on where to go with mine.

                Thanks and keep up the good work.

                  Gday joey... Top work with your mods and choice effort getting your rig into those mags!
                  I have a kz like yours and am currently replacing the head with an AMC due to cracking in the combustion chambers and between the valves in #3 cylinder... My motor was chipped and boosted like yours and has done 250kms...
                  I was wondering how many k's your car had done when you did your engine mods, how many its done now?
                  I guess im just sussing a few things for a comparison...
                  Cheers man. Thanks

                        Joey,

                        I've just read all 49 pages of your rig build up and to say it's impressive is an understatement. As has been said before, top effort and quite a few mods that will make it to my rig.
                        My son has been at me to get some black rims, but I've never thought they would suit. After seeing your pictures I'm ready concede that I was wrong.
                        Quality build up and I'll be re-reading constantly.

                        Cheers.

                            Thanks Gramps and OutBack.

                            yes she has been a work in progress .

                            the best part of the rig is that it gets tested in some very difficult terrain and always holds up.

                            keep you posted on the new updates.

                            cheers.
