im moving to queensland soon and want to know what conversions i can legally do, i know some have put V6 motors in but not sure what V6 motors they are talking about please hepl me out, money is not a problem so fire away. i already have a 2L in mine at the moment and want to do a good conversion, i have had rotary gems before and so that one i have already done so i want to do something different, also want to know where i can get a good set of new wheels, there is a place down here called TEMPE TYRES, i can get cheap rims from there, i can get a set of brand new 18 chromes with brand new tyres for $1100.. is there anywhere that can hook me up with something simillar? i get them at wholesale from TEMPE so i doubt that it will be that cheap up there but worth a shot and if there is a place good for wheels, where is it? any help would be greatly appreciated,

g'day mate, i have been in the tyre business and seen some tragedies with 18in wheels, good quality tyres are up to 450 ea, they cost a motsa and you will stuggle to get 20,000ks wear from them, a reasonable 17in will set you back about 170bills.

- You could buy them before you move and take them with you.
- You could buy them from home after you move, and then get them sent up.
