the bay is looking insane mate, so neat and well put together.
you've really done a great job with the car as a complete package - certainly not bad for a p plater :P

did you end up fitting those 255s?
chuck up some pics if you did :D
also, i cant remember if you wanted some other tyres, i thought you messaged me at some point, but i get a bit confused with the amount of msgs i get for tyres :doh:

Soo some small but big changes are starting to go along with this now as I've bought myself a daily(not the best choice for a daily but idgaf) I'll start a showroom thread of that but not much(if any) money will be going into that.
I've recently bought a new standalone ecu that's called Perfect Power through CVE, which will hopefully be going in sometime in the next week. I've also got myself a fully decked au head built from CVE, with a full porting of both intake and exhaust ports, and combustion area? nfi what you call that bit lol, also slapped on a (correct me if I'm wrong Paul) 1.8mm Copper Headgasket as a decomp ready for mooaarrr booost!!

Hopefully I'll have a new job soon and more $$$ will be rolling in and chucked into this baby ;)

DeCorsas are under my bed, im waiting on a centre cap i need to buy because there is one that im missing!! its next to impossible to get one :(

All depends on how much boost I'll be running, but I'll be happy with anything in between 200-250 on around 6-7psi

Well I believe a certain someone has donated a retrimmed custom interior ready for Summernats! :cool:
Much appreciated and excellent work on the design! I was a bit worried at it how it would look at first! :) :thumbsup:
It's got a new wolf ECU installed by Mr.CVE at CVE Performance (much appreciated!!) now just waiting on new fuel system which will include a Bosch 044 and surge tank, and a Malpassi fuel regulator (and possibly a Billet fuel rail ;) also will be thanks to Mr CVE) then shall have a tune and see how she goes at around 6-9psi :)

That trim couldnt work any better in your car :) I think it looks great with the deleted head rests and the deleted buttons for the rear seats.

Interior trim looks good, but the removed headrest screams "pull me over". Besides that, it's majorly dangerous if you're involved in a heavy impact rear end collision.

Bit of a mixed look for an EL XR6.

Sooo nothing has really changed except that I'm back to factory interior :(
I've buckled a DeCorsa, and it's been my daily until my ute gets fixed which is a good thing I guess :p
Because I buckled one of my wheels, I needed something that still made my car stand out for AFD on the weekend, many people offered there wheels but I ended up going with bentleys P45 r2/r3 wheels that came off his drifter, and it definitely stood out from the croud! I loved having them on! although some might disagree but I don't care :-P
