Does anyone run the VG oe VQ30 in pro-lite and if so what do you think of it. 100KPLUS runs a Nissan now is it the 30 or 35 because what l have heard about it it goes quite well.

A few tips for you with the shipping to try to avoid problems with quarantine, etc:

* Make sure everything that they put in the container is clean, including parts, etc. 
* Try to avoid using any timber for any sort of bracing, etc unless it is treated and you can get a correct treatment certificate to prove this.
* Make sure that whoever packs the container for you provides you with a packing declaration, which is a document required for quarantine here. YOu can get through without it, but it may lead to extra costs.
* If you are bring in any tires that are not on rims, there are lots of things you need to get them through AQIS.  Let me know if you are and I will give you some more details.

If you have any queries let me know and I will try to help you out.

After being mucked around by customs for 2 weeks we will finaly be able to go to Brisbane and pick the car up on Friday. We are hoping it will all be there and will post some photos on the weekend.

l don't think our car was the problem but it was packed with 3 other road cars. It was x-rayed and then was unpacked at the wharf checked and repacked and then released then sprayed ect so it took a bit longer than we expected.

Thanks Nev l will need a scrutineer to look at the frame while in brisbane as we don't have one up here in CQ.

This isn't an Aussie car, but it's a new one for us anyway. Custom single seat Chenowth chassis, Albins transaxle, 600hp LS2 with our custom intake valves (valves let the motor have over 400 lb.ft. of torque at 1100 rpm!) series 30 axles, FOA/Bilstein suspension,  Tons of the stuff we have made ourselves...the axles, hubs, and more to come. Now if we could just find time to put it all together....

Yea, I thought you guys would like that! I almost reversed the interior pic just to mess with you.

Intresting to see it has old style 'A' arms on the front rather than the later wishbone style arms.
Are some builders still using the 'old ' style stateside or is it an older frame?

I thought all the chenowths were semi-trailing A-Arms?  IE little camber gain etc, but considering rentch and chappo both run those front ends there cant be too much wrong with them!
