Love it...but not the Chrome

[F l a k]

I actually kind of like the chrome. Needs a bit of a clean inside, and I'd ditch the dash mat and think about a different air intake set-up, but all up I like it a lot. Nice work man

[ashb91]

cheers guys
yeah didn't put in much effort with the photos of the inside and engine bay
definitely in the market for a new steering wheel maybe even a stockie

any good ones you've seen in VNs?

just tryna keep it clean, taken out the gay voltage gauge that was in it when i bought it, and next to go is the super lame neon in the boot to light up the dodgy sound system i replaced.

[actfst]

looks very clean well done i dont mind the chrome pursuits

[undersuspicion]

nice tidy bt1 mate, looks good.

[mischa]

The wheels look good i rekon. Is that power figure rear wheels?

[ashb91]

yeah thats at the wheels

i'm thinking its maybe losing a bit as im running it on gas as well as petrol

[mischa]

Yeah, mine made over 200rwhp with only exhaust and tune so theres somthing up there! Theres alot to be had in a tune if you havent got one yet!

Oh and are those wipers the modern style ones you get from supercheap for like $35 a single blade?

[ashb91]

I thought they were just standard, could be wrong.
I didn't put them on there

Yeah yet to get a tune
It's still a work in progress gotta get it checked out
Probably by someone who knows the engine well

If anyones in wa and knows anyone around wangara Balcatta area
Would be good to hear.

Cheers
