Yeah, want to move battery to boot, finish off stereo, Ive got some Chrome Statesman interior door handles coming, and an MSD to install. Few other bits and pieces, but those are the priorities at the moment.

Looks great! Although im not a big fan of your rims. Do you know how much PoWa she is puttin out? How much do you think she gained with the new exhaust, also did you feel much increase after removing the engine fan and how did you install the electric fan?

Thanks. Its put out 204hp at the wheels at the dyno day that we had a Power Torque a few months back. I felt a bit of a gain from the exhaust, but it wasn't overly huge. It does sound alot better then what it used to though, it has a nice burble to it, and its not overly loud.

No gain from removing engine fan. I only did it to fit the Gilmer drive. My housemate is a sparky, he wired it in for me. The fan just bolts through the core of the raidiator basically, with some long screws and some big washers. It is controlled via a temp probe that goes in the top radiator hose, with a dial to set the temp that it comes on. Im not a big fan of the way it is controlled with the probe, as they tend to leak around the top hose, despite the rubber seal that comes with it. I turfed the seal in the bin, ran a bead of silastic inside the hose, and let it seal for a day or two. It still leaks a little, but nowhere near what it used to.

You are the first person to tell me they don't like my rims!

Its pretty cool, it sounds great, not real difficult to install. I did lose the A/C however, but I didn't use it, so I wasn't too concerned. No performance gains, though the noise makes up for it..;)
