MC Blade Master G in da house y'all!

Project Binky v2.0

[Sumodog]

This or a 2003 Mark II Blit. The Mark II Blit is 1JZ and RWD, so much more potential for fasts, but this is already fast, newer, and more daily friendly (smaller, less fuel etc)

I looked at both and went Blit . Not a looker to put it mildly but it is a wagon , good size and it has a JZ. Mine now has a 3inch exhaust and fmic . Kenwood carplay added as well , good basic commuter - roughly Mustang 5.0 pace .
Funny thing is i actually looked at a very car that OP purchased ,I remember the aftermarket wheels - OEM are thick 5 spokes. Blade would be a great sleeper and i love the interior especially console/shifter arrangement. Can't go wrong with GR either.

Car should have been offloaded a week ago, so chased it up today. It appears as if the port industrial action is going to add another week or two delay.

Industrial action continues at Sydney Terminal is currently 12-14 days behind schedule, and it is forecast that the delays will increase due to the ongoing Protected Industrial Action. It is estimated that there is a backlog 35,000 containers waiting to be loaded or discharged at Patrick Terminals – Sydney.

Resigned to not seeing it until the new year.

Unless the NSW Main Roads get their shit together, the theoretical timeline brings me to just before Christmas. We all know government departments get more efficient in the lead-up to Xmas and the new year.

Other Aristos seem to have gone thru compliance in a 3wk turnaround, so I think you're still in with a decent shot to have your granny hoonmobile for xmas double demerits

the dark blue is nice. can you change to ausdm rear lights?

[Dark Orange]

Yeah, AuDM lights apparently fit right in, so they are definitely a consideration after I see what it looks like in person. And a dark blue is high on my list of preferred colours, although that deep red the Mazdas have been using lately is damned nice.

*edit*
In other news, just got news that the car is actually out of quarantine and customs and will be delivered for compliancing in the next day or two.

Which hotel was it quarantining at?

[Bren]

That is excellent news!!
Personally I would keep the tail lights. It’s not a boring ADM Corolla so why dress it up as one.

Even good news is difficult to get out of them. They just replied to an email I sent on Tuesday letting me know that the compliancing process that was taking 4 weeks when I started this thread took only a week - they are now waiting for the compliance plate to arrive (they are apparently made in Victoria) and are on target for me to drive it away at the end of next week.

FTFY

Nice one. Hopefully my Aristo isn't far behind, it graduated from being outside the compliance workshop to being inside last week :-)

[Ribfeast]

Surely this thing is close by now?
