She runs At paint atm. Been a long time coming

Ute is forsale, but the asking price kees going up the more it gets closer to finished lol

A hyundai i30 lol But in all seriousness i made a promis that when the ute runs and goes to paint, the blue rig goes up forsale. I wish i could keep both, but id rather keep the ute

She's forsale Utes at paint also

Few updates Sold my copy hsv flutes and then bought a genuine pair. Few paint scuffs on em so had em resprayed. Got a new hurst short shifter. Much better feel then the other hurst shifter. Got a ripshift to fit on a later date And lastly all new front seatbelts, check straps on...

Got a 3" for mine

Tuff !! Silver SSZ ute's ftw

Nother SA SSZ, noice !! Ever want to sell them rims lemme know ;)

Few hours later Results in Have the door trims to go in also but fronts need little attention first. Gonna try get detailer at work to shampoo seats. Few marks my upholstery cleaner couldnt remove

Trunnions were easy. Mate has a jig at his house. Pressed out/in within an hour. Painter said 250 if do all blue, or 400 if want to black out the mesh cause that will be a big bit of labour to mask up and paint. Im fussy and want em done HSV style with the black mesh part

Not bad for $70

Yeah mate of mine got me onto them as he bought a LS1 for a rebuild and all the rocker needle bearings were everywhere. Thought be cheap insurance with a high lift cam. Yeah also got some hsv finned flutes to go on aswell. Want to get them painted all blue like so.

Got bored one night Wire wheeled back the brackets and painted them matte black also. Should have painted it black but it'll do for now.

Im banned off fb for 5 weeks 650 at adelaide auto refinshers but i had a few other bits done to manifold to rack up that bill

Yeah got a pwr 280x200x19 cooler ready to go on for power steering

Woops i accidently deleted the original post So to reiterate i found the fuel leaking coming from the press on fuel fitting. Put plenty of vas on before i pushed it on...... weird. So 2nd time lucky and no leaks. Feels alot more responsive now. Im curious to see the inside of the other...

From holdens. Thinking get a aeroflow one cause in a year its faded to **** and yellowing quickly

One tuff ute

So trimmed down the heatshield And then the fun began Started first go...... then found this

Yeah one day i hope can get the opportunity, but with the only drag strip reopening again in adelaide it will be choccas for a while. Swapped the fittings round on the catch can And my intake manifold heatshield arrived. I see the theory behind it so took the gamble to see how...

Cheers Not really to be honust. With the amount of cars there i was only able to get 1 run and was in line for my 2nd when someone shot a rod through the block and they shut the track down. If there were less cars and the guarantee of multiple passes to get the experience i prob would have...

Cheers. Cant take all the credit thou. Bolt on they said. Not one of the supplied fittings for vacuum hose's fitted the designated hose. More money spent again..... oh well. Relocated the purge solenoid too. Wish could have hidden behind the elbow but its choccas back there.

Been working on and off between this rig and the ute. Still getting used to driving it with the cam. Bit of a pig down low but once the revs are up its holy hell hang on. Been getting few bits ready for the manifold to go on. Cleaned and serviced the injectors. New map sensor and purge...

Got this made up Then painted up as close to factory as possible. Plan to get a pro comp white faced nitrous gauge

Cam is in with all the good bits

No more zip tie

Started off as an idea. Then a piece of paper, cardboard then a mdf template. Had a mate draw it up in CAD and then send the file to be laser cut. Big cheers to Chris :) Got it polished up nice And now its mounted finally Have another idea to mount the water block up neatly...

So date is all set for cam install. Keen as hell. Sold 2 of my simmons and bought some 9.5 wide with stretched 245/30 tyres Got my utes spare intake manifold dipped. Looks awesome. Cant wait to put polished rails/fittings on.

Just when thought i had everything..... #### it now i want to do heads also. Keeping my eyes out for pair of 241's for a PnP

Got all the other hardware on order. LS7 lifters, gaskets, arp head bolts etc etc Should be fun 228/242 .627"

Mate of mines been playing around with few ideas for the solid mount w2a resi bracket As can see with both clearance is a minor issue but we working around it. Eventually decided this will work best Just need to swap that bottom straight fitting to a 90* And yella...

After a nice little repair bill at summernats had a hissy fit n thought bout selling. Now a few months later have calmed down n decided to keep her. Lowered the rear again. Removed all the ve ss badges. Have a list of things needing a paint like the stone chipped bonnet and bumper. Have a few...

Its been a while Still not running lol Got a duel pod cluster and got it painted up to look like a factory piano black surround. Gonna get rid of the a/f gauge. Masked up and painted the ve throttle body. Looks fantastic now right at home with the other black parts. Ultimate...

Ah beaut cheers

No dramas I see how you could make the hurst fit onto the ripshift but im not a fan of the ripshift. The hurst feels awesome.... but not on hot days lol

Cheering

Yeah easier to see the speedo now (not that i care lol) but in a few weeks time it will look alot cleaner again Washed and polished her for the first time in year and a bit. With a years worth of dust build up on her looked a little sad. Once water hit the paint it just beaded off...

Hurst Chrome Short Shifter Stick & Knob 2004 2005 2006 GTO + Monaro & – Core Shifters Nope

Cheers. The to do list when it goes to paint is longer than the to do list to finish it lol Swapped over the 2 5/8" blower pressure gauge to a smaller 2 1/16" boost gauge. Much neater and same size as air/fuel gauge Before After
