good work mate, how much did the 70mm tb set ya back? and do they just bolt on? or do you have to bore out the interals as well...

you will notice a decent difference with the brakes..

cool thanks for the info on the TB... I was thinking to do a MACE tb aswell. Probably want to get a tune organised before I install it... I am pretty sure Noy had an issue of loosing power by not doing a tune with a bigger tb...

Roughly how much was it for the polished radiator cap or oil cap? looks cool as...

for both go to growly.com.au thats where i got it done.

I got a tune if your thinking of doing the throttle body maybe do the maf as well i did and the car runs smoother and the pod sucks heaps louder. there is a guy on ebay selling them for $83 buy it now thats where i got mine and get a tune and you will be loving it mate
