Hey all, today I did what I said I would never do. I fitted a poddy.

But Im happy with it, Im not completely finished though. I plan to make and floor and cover over it to try and stop that horse power robbing heat entering the engine. Also it does sound quite good.

build cost: $25
build time: 1/2 - 1 hour

One question is the temp sensor fine how it is?

Degrese your engine bay :idea3: You need to enclose the top.

Need to make something to stop dirt getting in the engine as much? Maybe something under neath? :p

But looks good, be better once it's enclosed, even if you use clear plastic as the lid to show it off :p

HAHA! I just thought of that! :idea3:

Im glad someone else thinks it would look good.

Anyone relocated the filler neck on the window wash, I could figure it out myself but some ideas would be great.

I just did an enclosed setup on mine.

Spent around $150 on a decent K&N filter (had a heap of supercrap vouchers and they had nothing else I wanted)


Much better feeling low down and a much more responsive throttle.

Definitely worth the money when done properly

Anyone done that before? tbh I wouldnt want to make one without using a hoist though.
I'm not sure, but I'm sure theres a plastic thing that helps prevent dust and stuff. sometimes they get removed/broken. Yeah you'd probably have to hoist the car up to do that..
