hi all,
ive owned the car since march and so far have done a few mods to it.
boost gauge
2'' OME lift
HID head lights
lightforce spotties
UHF and ariel
265/75/16 MTZ
Full sound system
Xrox bullbar
Powder coated roll bar and rear step

looks tuff with the xrox and muddies.
Are you going to put infill panels in the sides of the bar?
ive seen a few with the holes drilled in them like your bash plates, and they look awesome.

calcal · Dec 17, 2011

its crossed my mind but i dont think im going to do it.
what i would like to do is make a plate to protect my tie rods because ive snapped them 3 times since ive had the car

nathand22 · Dec 17, 2011

Whats going on to snap three of them? impact? or something else?

calcal · Dec 17, 2011

i snapped 2 hitting rocks and the third i snapped bouncing in the air

1. The cockpit

2. Powdercoated rear step and roll bar

3. Phillips amp with built in sub

calcal · Dec 17, 2011

lokka in front and sliders when you bend those steps

so, i was really really bored last night so thought it was a good idea to adjust all my lights. i just put HIDs in the head lights yesterday and now they put the lighforces to shame. next step is HID all my spotties

the way u have that sub mounted, do those screws holding it go through to the outside of the car or not? also is it much of a sound improvement? thinking of getting one myself

yes the screws do, but with abit of silicone its all good.
for the sub, it is a huge improvement for what it is.
i got it for 2 reasons, its all built in 1 and you use the power from your head unit so not much wiring

little update on the nav

i have heavy duty springs in the rear and i hate how stiff it is and its very imited flex. ive decided to change the setup abit by using the original springs with extended shackles for a softer ride plus more flex. also, i am purchasing a set of UCAs from snake racing to fix the front end up.
now i have a question, if i fit the UCAs do i have to chance my shocks?? i have OME nitro charger shocks atm. any info would be great, cheers.

calcal · Dec 26, 2011

UCAs have just been ordered from snake racing for $650

calcal · Dec 30, 2011

hey guys,
was a little bit bored today so took some flex pics of the nav before the new suspension gets installed.
enjoy

hey guys,
just bought myself an ARB compressor and need you opinion.
im thinking of installing it either in the engine bay, behind the rear seat or in the tray. what you guys think?
cheers
