Why didn't you buy the VS behind it in the pic ? hahaha nah, an improvement for sure. My latest offering, lose the S badge (mega homo)...tack tack tacky I notice your volt gauge is for sale. how about selling the rpm one too dude... will look a lot better! invest the $$ from selling them (if anyone would buy them) into the lowering job/ buying me beer for guiding you in the right direction hahahaha just jokes dude u know i'm stirring. peace out hombre' Jay Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

IJD - Yep, they'll be done this week if i get some time... trying to decide if i want to lose the engine cover and autosol the plenum cover and rocker covers. Jay - i was waiting for someone to say why didn't i buy that... and i had a feeling it'd be either tweak or you :P Anyway it was VERY dodgy. S badge was free so i thought i'd have a look with it there for the sake of it... kinda does look homo. Tacho stays... mainly cos nobody would buy it, and its more accurate than the stocko. Do ya like XXXX Golds Jay? Cheers guys

front springs are easy as to do 5 bolts on either side undo the 2 bolts holding the hub to the strut. Then mark and undo the 3 nuts on the top of the strut pull it out compess the spring change them over put it back together if your any sort of mechanicly minded should be a snap usually takes me around 40 min to do the whole job at work. i might be comming to brisbane betwen chrissy and newyear if i go ill send you a pm and i can give you a hand. you can keep your XXXX aswell that stuffs **** go the tooheys extra dry mate
