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

did you end up fitting those 255s?
chuck up some pics if you did

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:

by **SLO4LT** » September 14th, 2012, 8:05 am

Thanks bill! I'm pretty happy with what I've managed to do since I've had it! but there is still sooo much more I want to do and probably won't ever be finished lol!
Nah havnt yet! I'll be putting them on soon I reckon, now that I've got a daily I've put the BA GT's on that and will then chuck the tyres on

all good man havnt asked since last time I saw you and got those 19's so dw!

by **kwikxr** » September 14th, 2012, 8:17 am

Hell yeah, that engine bay looks off tap! Good stuff man :good:

by **SLO4LT** » September 15th, 2012, 7:44 pm

Thanks man! just tryin to clean up some things before summernats! should be looking real schmick!

by **SLO4LT** » September 29th, 2012, 2:36 pm

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

by **SnipeZ** » September 29th, 2012, 2:43 pm

What's the daily? Getz? Lol
Can't wait to see the awesomeness that this car will get

Cheers

by **SLO4LT** » September 29th, 2012, 2:58 pm

Second was my handy work and may have forgotten to tighten up the cam bolt to specs(wasnt tight enough i didnt double check ) was majorly pissed off about that one! lol
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

I feel your pain about the centre cap over tightened mine one day and the housing broke, currently siliconed on. Messaged distributors in the us and no reply

I'll be getting a mould made up I think and make copies from that

by **BROCKYB8** » October 2nd, 2012, 8:58 am

So any idea of how long till you can drive this

by **.tapeworm** » October 2nd, 2012, 4:18 pm

by **SLO4LT** » October 9th, 2012, 7:16 am

BROCKYB8 wrote:So any idea of how long till you can drive this

Well it's drivable ATM

going to wait a bit for the install of the ecu, as I've run out of dosh ATM!

.tapeworm wrote:it looks awesome with the BA GT's imho!

cheers! I like them on the el and ba, but now I've chucked the DeCorsas back on the el, I don't think I'll be seeing the GT's back on that for awhile!

by **YBHVE4** » October 17th, 2012, 2:30 pm

so whats sort of power you hoping to get in the end?

by **SLO4LT** » October 19th, 2012, 6:29 pm

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

by **vegabass** » December 21st, 2012, 6:10 am

Any progress with this? Will it make summernats? :drinks2:

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!

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

You know it's definitely going! I can't wait!! :yahoo:

here's some interior pics thanks to Drew(Vegabass) for design, production and install!!

and a detail with the help of Poita(PHaT'eL) with the Phat Guard Rolling on the extremely pumped front guards and Tyronne(LUVSIT) with polishing

by **DJV8T5** » January 1st, 2013, 7:28 am

Looks mint. You have done very well to get the car to this stage, good luck at the 'Nats too

by **vegabass** » January 1st, 2013, 5:14 pm

Change the console lid I gave ya!

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.

by **Mr. CVE** » January 1st, 2013, 6:04 pm

Looks very good Damo, I wish when I was your age I was able to have a car like that.
You have done very well. :drinks2:

by **obsezd** » January 1st, 2013, 6:07 pm

good luck at summernats damo, would be mint if you come back with some trophies

by **fez_k** » January 1st, 2013, 6:26 pm

sick as! good luck at summernats!

by **SnipeZ** » January 1st, 2013, 8:03 pm

Do you have any more pics of the front guards?
Car looks mint as mate

Cheers

by **Sunboost** » January 2nd, 2013, 9:19 am

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.

by **someLS1** » January 2nd, 2013, 9:33 am

good work interior looks awesome im not sold on the front no headrests but its different! looks clean as inside and out will be good to check it out when i get up there friday!

by **SLO4LT** » January 2nd, 2013, 11:15 am

Thanks guys!

by **LUVSIT** » January 8th, 2013, 5:12 pm

So so shineys for the nats! Looks bloody awesome, done well there kid :p

by **SLO4LT** » February 19th, 2013, 3:02 pm

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

by **EFFalcon** » February 19th, 2013, 3:12 pm

explains why you wanted my 20's

by **SnipeZ** » February 19th, 2013, 3:46 pm
