No, haven't fitted it yet, really haven't had time.
Car will go through blue slip after this as well,
On the side I will be doing the front struts, tie rods and drop links also, but that's something I can achieve easily.
Just dawned on me, will need exhaust gaskets too.

Also, I have secured another driveway for which all other cars (mine namely) can be stored at.
So all project cars can go in my driveway with people parking in the neighbors.
(Oh, and they're away that weekend, so no real issue of noise etc.)

Pretty much Cessnock.
Yeah Lawso that would be sweet,.
I plan to start taking off stuff now in prep so it will be a lot easier on the day. Just depends on time management, been working on the Z nearly every arvo.

I have a luxury cruise liner in the drive, very comfortable compared to your lunch box...

You really think meteorologists are that accurate?
They can't predict what the weather will be tomorrow let alone next week. :lol:

Getting up to the day now.
Anyone who is attending and does not have my address, please PM myself.
Coronas have been purchased, and meat will get picked up day prior.
Sleeping arrangements, let me know now what you have planned.
Lawso already bags is room, plenty of floor/ recliner space, and could even put up our tent if people wanted to camp out...
