Love a nice green EF XR6! ;)
Put up as many pictures of this as you like! Some interior shots of the leather too! :grin:
Did you have the red stripes painted? If so, do you know what colour red paint was used?

Also, how do you like the XYZ coilovers? Been thinking of getting myself a set for a while.

Cool, sounds good! Your engine bay is looking nice, if you have a spare few hundred dollars, I'd take the heat wrap off the extractors and get them ceramic coated, either black or polished, would look nice and also keeps the under hood temps down better than heat wrap.

I'm not too worried as I'm going to put a turbo motor in. Pretty much re do everything on the engine bay.

Sounds good mate! I've been planning to get a sun roof, convert mine to manual, get some XYZ coilovers and respray my bumpers then ultimate either turbo my current engine, build up and turbo an AU motor for it or possibly drop a Barra turbo into it. Then I see yours and it's motivated me to start!
I also almost bought a set of EL GTs years ago, but ended up getting some BA XR8 17 inch copies instead. But your EL GTs look sweet, especially sitting nice and low on those coilovers! Great minds think alike! Haha
Now I wanna see more pictures! :grin:
