  12. Hi guys im still around, hope you are all well Small update on my Birkin 7, (Grace) New color (Mazda Crystal Sol Red), new tires, new grill, new paint on all the wheels, all due to a small incident at work 8 weeks ago Tires are Federal 595 RS R 195/50ZR15 semi slick road/track, sticky as hell compared to the Toyo T1Rs
  13. Hi mike life's been great, love the weather still and the surfing, 4Wding, exploring....the list goes on, miss the NZ driving roads though, its nearly cooled down enough to get Grace out for runs again.
  14. Hi Croc I have tried the shade top for the Birkin, i managed to borrow one from a Birkin owner in Sydney, I need to get around to making one as it certainly keep the sun of my chrome dome
  15. Hey all, back on the forum after a big hiatus away from the internet (well some of it), how is everyone I see some old names here which is great to see. I still have the Birkin S3 which was shipped to AU from NZ when we moved 5 years agao, we don't drive it quite as much now as its way to hot to sit in an open wheeler vehicle here in Australia, Queensland. Anyway great to be back and ill have lots to read Cheers Stephen
  16. Merry Christmas guys...sorry for the no show for a while but I still lurk here and read the posts, been very busy with our new lives here in Australia...still get out in Grace every now and then but no where near as much as we did in NZ due to the heat. Anyhow all the best and have a great Christmas and a great new year. Cheers Stephen
  17. I haven't been on these forums for a while as we have been pretty busy with our new lives in Australia, I have had requests from 3 USA7's forum members about these grills in the last week and they are being posted out tomorrow, I have 2 left if any members want some but will get more cut if it runs past the last 2. Best contact for me at the moment is to email me at hotdognz@gmail.com Cheers and a Merry Christmas guys.
  18. NIce to see Birkin forging ahead with new developments.
  19. Was discussing our cars with Marg last night as we have decided to sell the Mazda MPS and mentioned I was also thinking of selling Grace as we have only done 3000 kms in her over the last year and our first year in OZ, we haven't used it as much as I thought we would, mainly due to doing a few other new things 4WDing, surfing, camping and some times it can be too dam hot out and about in a car with no roof and no doors and the wind is like a hairdryer sometimes it just takes it out of you being in a car exposed to really hot weather (Dec-March). I was explaining my plan was to sell Grace along with the Mazda MPS and pool the money and buy a Lotus Elise which would give us our first ownership of a proper marque branded sports car and would still give us a cool car to drive, plus I always loved the Elise ever since I drove one 3 years ago on a Southern Lotus Club trip I was on, I got to spend the whole day driving a 1998 Elise S1 when I swapped cars with a fellow club member for the day, I also think a Elsie could be used a bit more as a normal car. Towards the end of the conversation Marg was making it quite clear she didn't want to let Grace go and I as much as I still love my Seven I was only letting her go to help fund the way into a Elise, next thing Marg tells me is sell the Mazda MPS, keep Grace and just buy a Elsie and have both ...I didn't see this coming I thought no way she's had too many Rums :lol: ....so this morning after a nights sleep I mention our conversation and its all remembered and all still GO. So the plan now sell the MPS, once that's done start the search for a Elise and start making a decision on either a S1 or S2, I need to find out what the rules are here for buying cars from a different state and what issues if any there are, I have joined the OZ Elise forum and will start asking questions on there about them. God I love my wife...if this comes off how cool is my garage going to look with Grace and an Elise sitting side by side :cooldude:
  20. Great photo
  21. Mines the blue one but its a Birkin S3 which a close on replica to a S3 Seven, love the 4AGE thats in mine running on trumpets and foam filters....makes a wonderful sound.
