Hi Canberra people!!! 
I will soon be based in Canberra. I've got a sprinter which needs to be modified. Wondering anybody out there who knows how to modify it. Any 4Age engine lying around in Canberra?? I would appreciate any help Very Very much. Oh and also anybody knows some paint job????  I would like to give it a new paint too!!!. I am not very good at modifying cars and doing the paint job but I would love to learn. Somebody's got to start some time or another. . Any other Sprinters out there in Canberra? Would love to meet you guys up.

Hey Welcome (when you get here)
My mate has a sprinter with rebuilt 4age.
Its Red with Silver Wheels and HUGE silver Wing, You can hear it a mile away. He's not part of the CCG but there are plenty of guys who can help you out.

I'm not sure if it came stock like that or he bought it with a 4age but he didn't convert it(engine. But the wing and zorst are his idea.
HAHAHAHA yeah that sounds like Mick!!! I raced him once in my 18rc celica he one of course but the good ol' 18rc didn't do too bad.
He also has a tendency to flat change gears and blow boxes or diffs but seeing as his mum owns Belco transmission this doesn't seem to bother him

I went to skool with Mick, he strap's the nuts out of that car. He tried to sell me his motor claming it was a GZE with no charger, upon closer inspection it's just a injected 16v,
OH, hi, I've got a sprinter and it's stock too. but i'm in the middle of parting with some money for parts, Phil form the CCG had a red one till about a week ago,it got stolen while he was on holiday butit was not a great car anyways, he's helping me with everything i need, Now motors> ha good luck getting much for an AE86 in canberra, I've crawled through every wrecker in town(even quenbehole, lol) and there ain't nothing. but there is a few inport places around that might be able to help. Just PM me when you get to town and i'll tell you where to go.
