Hmm, i've only driven it twice (at work, and then home from work with works tradeplate on the back) because it's currently unregistered, but on the way home i managed to get it to lock up pretty hard, although that ABS light you mentioned is on currently. Perhaps the code needs to be cleared before it operates again.




That would be awesome actually. Pretty keen to have cold A/C, haha.



Cheers mate! Let me know when a convenient time is for you and maybe we could arrange to meet up so i could pick up that condenser?
10 am is fine. I will probably be under something at that point. turbos are elsewhere.

exactly. I already have two toys and that one was the third and wife was getting annoyed with it. as for wholesaling it. I had a victorian buyer but the mod plates on it didn't mean squat there and the thing would have needed engineeering again. in the end it was all too hard and with a wife complaining I had too many cars - that was the final outcome.

I would have loved it, but as with Chris, it was incompatible with the wife... :?

Hi Guys,

Because I have Girlfriend 1.0 which is compatible with the GT2 Wagon I am the new proud owner of the car.
I have so many questions to ask and a bit of work to do to bring it back up to Chris's high standards but I will try.

Cheers
Troy

Yeah all points are still intact and hopefully this weekend is sunny the wagon will get a lot of attention in the form of cleaning and replacement of fluids.

What do you guys reccommend for auto trans fluid and is it worth me putting a bottle of the Lucas automatic transmission treatment to help keep the seals nice and sound.

Just did thanks Chris he was very helpful :)

I will give you a bell in a couple of weeks about the aircon as I want to get it sorted. Also how do you test the rear window demister as I suspect its not functioning correctly.
