    Hey mate, nice slate to start with, engine bay is abit cluttered, tidy up some wires, ditch the pod its just sucking hot air, get it enclosed or get a good CAI back with a airbox and panel filter, any more future plans u got 4 her.

    Nice hair mate!



    Car's not bad either ^^

    As Bz Kn33z said, ditch the pod and slap a good cold air intake on there. Much better for power

    The VS CAI from Holdens is $53, then just sell the pod on Ebay for $20 or something. You'll need an airbox as well though ($10 from wreckers).

    Is it just me, or is the bonnet a different colour?

    the stereo squeeling sounds like rca's have been run down the same side of the car as the power cable for your amp/amps. run power cable down one side of the car and rca's down the other and it should stop.

    thy a new ground for the amps and head unit, make sure the good contacts and on bare metal not painted and that there on solid metal like the shell or chassis.
