I live down a drive way, there are two houses on it, ours is the first so to get into our car port/parking space you go down the drive about 30m then veer to the left. I was backing out onto the main drive and didn't see the nanny from down the drive driving up (there is a fence) and we kinda squished together, my rear right fender into her front left, kinda like a scrapage but left a dent. Her car was far better off.

Dude that sux! The losing the job part is probably worse than getting arrested, but what was the arrest for anyway?
Strange 21st where you get home by 2am and you can still type leon. Haha

Was thinking the same thing although the other week I was home by 12ish from a 21st but I was smashed mrs had to help me walk.
Went to some random pissup last night then the clubs then staggered around the streets for a bit so haggered today but I done my lawns and stuff had the bonnet of the car up aswell but thats as far as thats got. Got 1500 sega games on my xbox so funny 8bit sounds its great for hangovers.

Nah they ran out of booze!!! And had to be up early to get that engine.
Anyone want any bits from a G200? I'm keeping the crank and the timing chain tensioner, the rest is free to a good home.

gutted!! what were you arrested for? Dissorderly behavior. Tried to fight a bouncer on ponsonby road after i had been kicked out for taking a swing at my boss after he was being a schlong. Was only mildly drunk but just really angry at the guy(who was pissed). Spent a couple of hours in the cells then was discharged. About an hour later was arrested for some other nuts and spent another few hours at another police station then they thought i was nuts(crazy not nuts) and took me to the hospital for a brain test so finally after the docter decided i wasnt insane they let me go and i went to macdonalds for breakfast. The end. Was only charged for the first thing so i've court for that on friday. Dammit

How the hell do you get a G200 timing cover off? I've undone all the bolts and the sump nuts too. What else do I have to remove?

So ive spent about an hour ringing around trying to find somebody to widen my wheels. Kept geting refered onto another company but finally found somebody i auckland who will do it. Steelie gears will do 7inch centerless rims for around $50 a wheel. They wont weld a section into the existing rim but he says they will do it to one of the centerless ones....but its gonna cost $200 a rim but then i will have really good and safe wheels. Rang elite wheels in christchurch... Also say that you can only buy up to 7inch wide BUT they will weld in a section to the existing rims for only about $50 a rim! but then theres freight costs.... Kind of keen to get the guys in auckland to do it because of how much better the end product will end up being. Dont know what to do

Go elite, they do top notch jobs, Even with shipping I think it will still be a hell of alot less.

Nah ended up going for steelie gears in otahuhu. Mainly because of how much of the man the guy who runs it is. Was ultra helpful and told me heaps of nuts about stuff. Ive ordered some ROH 13x7 centerless rims from twl. Used special trade discount and they're $60 a rim(retail of $80) They'll arive tomorrow and hes gona tack in one of the centers to see if i like it. If its too small then i can buy two 6 inch rims and he'll cut them up and weld sections into the 7's. But i reckon the 7's will be big enough. Spent like an hour looking at pics of brads wagon and i think the 7's will do the job. But ill see. If anyone else wants to do this then theres a guy down in Waihi who will weld sections into your standard wheels for quite cheap...might get him to take my standard wheels out to 8 mmm hubcaps -also might of found a piazza lsd for my gemini diff.
