here ya go, have recently changed leads but it's all the same

[hakhawk]

heres mine (not in main car) and its WIP

[CSL]

when are yopu guna finish that mate, im hanging to see if it's power worthy, looks a treat thou,
it'd be great to get a whole superchargered buik motor from the states, you know the east west front wheel drive ones, that would be sick

[hakhawk]

gettin there, its slow progress, soo much stuff to work out.

yeh, the sc motors would be good, but might as well go a supercharged ecotec for the effort.

Hey CSL, I noticed your nice shinny air pipe. May I ask where you got it from and how much? Also, did you feel much difference in power once you installed it. These smooth unrestrictive pipes always got my mind thinking.

P.S. Here is my OLD engine bay. It hasnt really changed much apart from some new leads,water pump and dont have pod hooked up anymore.

[drans_vp]

this is my vp engine just started re building.

[CSL]

hey mack, you can get them on ebay for about 75 bucks, if anything they restrict power cause it heats up, but then again heaps of time i get home pop bonnet and it feels cool, but nah didnt notice much, with the TB and the pod and box and the cai and all the rest all done so gradually it all feels smoothly the same

CSL your strut holder plate thingos are 100% stuffed and why is your cruise control in the V8 spot?

i rekon you should paint it the colour of your car tho and paint the lettering in silver everything else black would look tuff as

[HoZy]

Actually painting the engine cover BLACK! Already had 2 light mist coats.. Underneath & topside... Almost time for a proper coat...

Polishing most things in the engine bay! Black & Polished & Silver
