Re: ADVENTURE TOUR 2010
There's a post on Outerlimits about Gembrook. Someone was there mid January and found Bunyip Ridge and Andersons had been graded.

Re: Weird motor swap ideas
I like the motorbike engine idea. This guy used an air cooled, carbed Harley clone, but there are water cooled, injected Japanese V-Twin engines. http://www.skyhawg.com/sam1.html http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff273/steve125/SamEngine.jpg http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff273/steve125/SamCoup...

F100 rim offset
Is there a 'standard' offset for F100 rims? I have found some 15x8 sunraysia rims for sale but the seller can't tell me what offset they are (I believe it needs to be around -25mm). I want to fit 31x10.5 tyres to my WT Sierra (after the body lift) and the recommended rim for these tyres is between 7...

Re: Advice on a new GV welcomed
Hand winches are great, you can pull the vehicle in any direction not just forward. But they are hard work. A snatch block is a pulley that allows you to double the winch cable back to the winching point and halve the load on the winch. A problem with the GV, and many vehicles, is the lack of 'rated...

Re: Advice on a new GV welcomed
I've had an '08 diesel GV for just over a year now. ECB have an alloy bar available, but it costs close to $2k and doesn't look that good in my opinion. Plus it's not winch compatible. ARB have a steel winch bar in development but you may be waiting a while for this to become available. Another poss...

Re: 2009 Grand Vitara V6 Wiring Diagram
Is this the sort of thing you need? http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff308/HeRoze/GVHeadlights.jpg A copy of the Service Manual is on NewGrandVitara.net. It's for the four cylinder model but the headlight wiring should be similar if not the same. http://newgrandvitara.net/modules/smartfaq/faq.php?...

Re: Tyre Size - Grand Vitara
Julesta, my GV still has its std suspension although an upgrade is a possibility. What sort of lift is Iron Man doing; is it a Rocky Road spacer type lift or are they making longer springs and shocks for you? Meetings are held on the second Wednesday of each month (except January) at AMRA Hall, 92 W...

Re: Snorkle
What other mods have you done to your GV? Just the sump guard so far. Next will be a set of bigger tyres once I make up my mind on what size/type to go for. May look at a suspension lift but will probably be spending that money on my Sierra. The plan at the moment is to use the GV everyday and for ...
