Motoz MN GLX R: Evolution of a Warrior

[motoz]

Camper trailer , you still building that , no updates

Yes... have been somewhat time challenged of late though its still on the radar.
Going in to get suspension fitted next week. Increasing the track to match the Triton. Just a simple rebound leaf, beam axle and 10" electric brakes. Havent updated the build thread in a bit.

Also building a shed along with earthworks / retaining walls, demolishing and rebuilding our family home, planning a wedding / getting married and expecting our first born in just under 6 weeks while only being home for 9 days in every 5 weeks.

Multitasking much ???

[belvo]

Another set of tyres , you only just got the MT-117's

So we'll see another 1/4 chop in the not to distant future then

Yes the Duratrac's and H3 rims will move on to the camper trailer, the Silverstones will be play tyres and the Generals will be daily's.

Getting the Method NV rims in a 17 x8.5 with a 0 offset shot with 285/70 r 17's.

mmmm methods where did you buy them from there's not many Australian sellers

[Kegsy]

Methods and grabbers... Very jealous!

I've been following Defcon Brix's Taco build in the US. It's inspired me to keep pushing on with my build.






Some great ideas and effort put into his build and trailer.

I guess I just have an issue keeping machines standard...



A 1990 GT4 I built up about 15yrs ago. Full HKS bolt on goodies putting out 260kw at all four hoops.

So heavy but a cool car

Just a little busy mate! Haha

[stefanos]

Would be great to have an in cab style adjustment like the Rancho system.

....when I'll finish the engine,I'm thinking that my next mod will be a new suspension set up with Ori struts,with in cab adjustments....

[trumpy955]

I think you need something else to keep you occupied mate, obviously not enough on your plate . That was the best of the new shape celicas. Wish I had your .... whatever it is that keeps you so into all this stuff... madness?? Lol

Just taken on another project. Restoring this lil 1974 Suzuki TC 100 as a present for the wife.

She wants a retro cafe racer and I rekon this lil miss will fit the bill nicely. Picked it up for $200.

[gspy4u]

TC100 are they the ones with a dual range gearbox, high and low ? Had one of those many many moons ago. Great little beastie would go almost anywhere.

Yes mate it's got the twin ratio trans.

[motoz]

Oops I've done it again.
Think I'm having a pseudo mid life crisis.

Picked up a 1984 XJ600 44k un molested for $500.




Going through a 'tracker' phase so my plan is to convert it too something inspired by this...



Lazy Sunday retro rides...

I use to ride one of them back in the day

I started a cafe racer project 2 years ago (Honda CX500) but gave up 85% of the way through as our business got too busy so got myself a HD V rod. That 100cc you plan on doing up has me interested though, never heard of a dual range g/box on a bike..

Some of the early Honda CT 110 postie bikes have duel range. Late 70's early 80's AG bikes also.

[BMD]

Interesting.. Another possible project for me.... better finish the Triton first I think!

You still happy with the DMS units?
What rear leaves did you end up using?

[hvac guy]

I am and used efs 350kg springs but I have some weight on the back it rides well very happy

Yes mate.
Best decision yet. It has improved the on and off-road handling. I've got the height I was after with the dampening to suit. Not as bone jarring as before.

I just used the 2" extended leaves I had with the Ultimate package. They give a great ride and offer really good flex so I didn't feel the need to change.

Haven't been on NTN for a bit as we just had our new model arrive a little earlier than expected.

[hvac guy]

Naw

[skilbys]

Well done Dave, best mod yet!

[c-dale]

Thank you guys.

No joke either SM, these little people take over everything. So much stuff, so little sleep and very little time of your own.

I've got 6wks off work to ease into it though it seems to be flying by with not a great deal being achieved !!!
