Sweet ute matelove the plates haha, future mods look good, what does it sound like? ive got a single 2.5 an ive been told i sould like a v8 sometimes, im wanting to get some new speakers, amp an head unit after xmas some time too
good to have another 6 ute on here haha

Yeah defs loving the plates. The sound personally sounds real good, ive heard nothing but good things from my mates, it doesn't drone too much but as soon as u accelerate and hit about 4000 rpm it has a real nice tone to it and sounds quite good for a V6, cant compare to a V8 lol, but im really happy with it.
Next 2 main things i want to do is upgrade my stock sound system and lower it a bit and then ill be really happy with the car![]()
Been a long time since I been here, been very busy with work and what not but in the past couple of months have had a few upgrades.
Finally completed my sound system: Kenwood Head Unit, 6" Kicker Splits, 12" Kicker Slim Sub & Kicker 4 channel Amp.
Am very happy with the result, for slim subs it kicks pretty hard.
I have also installed Front fog lights for that finished front end look.
Future mods hopefully within a few months eg. Taxtimelol

looks the goods mate, system should kick well too
ultras in the back would look good, should just tuck some tyre
my ute has pedders sports ryder which is the equivalent of SL im pretty sure, i wanna throw SSLs in the back but at the moment my driveway doesnt permit that lol
keep us updated mate![]()
yeah sound system is mint as
yeah im actually thinking super lows all around but ill see, might end up keeping it at its height pending on future mods and cash flow, but i wouldnt have a problem in my dirveway which always helps lol
next on the list is either a tune to get the most out of my exhaust & extractors or a full LED dash conversion and footwell neon lighting, once that is done the car will feel very complete... but im sure ill think of somethin else and keep spending money on it somehow
nice looking ute there mate very clean i suggest lowering it on sl not too low sits real nice and clean.
hey all,
just an update, just over a week ago i had a whining sound coming from my power steering, ended up needing a new power steering pump which cost a bit of money and to top it off i lost my job today, damn construction industry, so future mods like lowering etc. might have to be put on the shelf for the time being unfortunately.
Sound system still kicking though which i am loving
