Post by: FCV08 on April 20, 2009, 09:53:35 PM

I am currently researching this project and looking for details of a good engineer in the Toowoomba (QLD) area who would assist in this conversion.

I have searched the QT website with limited success.

Also looking for anyone who does the VN diff conversion in this area as well

Thanks

Craig

Just a quick update on progress for anyone in the Toowoomba area.

Peter from Auto Tech was really helpful and happy to pass on any details regarding engineering requirements.

Went down to Beaudesert and spent a good hour talking to Rod @ Rods Racks and Suspensions who also was very helpful.

I have since purchased the donor car (VN V8 Auto) so let the journey begin.

Thanks for your assistance and to all who contribute to the forum as it has been a wealth of information and inspiration.

Cheers Craig
