    Awesome car, love the dark theme you have going. I think chuck on some dark tint and it'll look real nice

    with them Plenum Insulator and Spacer iv asked about them alot fo people say waste of money realy. not much you can do to get alot of power out of a 6 for cheap, how ever a tune would bumb it up some more and get the injectors cleaned out if they never been done, some polishing in the Plenum camber will help get a lil more go in it to

    The stato's rims are aftermarket 18's, thats why they dont sit as low
    tune is in the works, I just need to travel to adelaide (5 hours away) to get it done, I've spoke with Steve from MACE and he said the throttle body and spacers would make it alot more responsive especially with my rockers.

    Walls on the rims or tyres? I should have got red walls on the rims when I got them powder coated, but didnt really give it much thought. I always thought someone in Broken Hill done walls, but no one does walls on tyres. Kinda stuck with them like that for a while. Tint is a must though!
