bit of an update on the ute, have removed rear alloy bar and place ally checker plate across it instead. looks pretty neat. did the egr/butterfly mod which made a slight increase in power off the mark, and installed a 2 inch bodylift.
the first photo is of it without the body lift, then the next 2 are with it.
dont know whether or not to put the sidesteps back on or not now......

been a while since i ive updated this, have installed chip express, 3 inch straight through exhaust from turbo, 4 lightforce 170s across the front.
i also replaced my tray with a new longer one. (the 2.5l trays) bolted straight on no hassles what so ever. my other tray was completely f***ed and found a brand spanker for $500, so bit the bullet and swapped it over. apart from the slight colour distortion from the cab and the tray, it makes the car look a heap better. and am stoked with it.
next on the list is some 33s and sort out canvas canopy on the back.
photos were just quick n off me phone. but ill take some more this week with the exhaust n tray in it.

tray looks good mate, did you put a DX tow bar on when you took off the rear step?

yeah, the gap from the str towbar was too great and didnt like it. and just did a straight swap. im pretty happy with it. only regret though is even the spare 265/75 fits very snug. so by going to 33s i wonder if it'll fit at all.

well bit the bullet and bought my 33s. found some bfg km2 muddies for 300 bucks a pop and couldnt resist. cheapest ive seen set of brand newies. they go on on friday. hopefully theyll clear without too much scrubbing. is it worth getting another wheel allignment done with getting the new boots on?

33s are on. and car seems to drive alot smoother i reckon. little bit of power loss but willl crank the chip up a couple of notches to even it out.
very stoked with it now. going down south to test my new rubber for few tracks so will see how they go.
cheers

Looks pretty sweet mate! I noticed a tiny bit of power loss when i put my 285's on last week. Not much though and agreed, mine drives smoother too
