Yep...... Im a newbe

Postby ^kicker^ » November 28th, 2007, 4:03 pm

Hey guys.
Just thought id sign up to the site seeing as i purchased a stock EA 5spd
(which only had a bit over 96,000km on the clock).

Probly wont be doing a whole lot to it seeing as it will just be my daily driver to work, but who knows what i'll decide to do to it in the future. But at this stage il just be going for the usual mags lowering and maybe an XR8 bonnet bulge (would be interested to see any pics of the bulge on an ea/eb/ed if anyone has some?)

Just one last question, how much does a rocker cover gasket sell for?
(got a bit of a leak)

Thanks.
Rob 8-)
