well that is fockin tidy! how did u do the interiour, especially the door trims?

yea im wondering about the interior love the white would love 2 do it 2 mine any help on how its done would be great

awsome.. new bay loooks micky as!

you probably already know this but having the breather on the rear crankcase vent. then the front one on the pcv is pretty pointless your getting unmetered air into your motor.

Thats a fair effort and a half! You've done a top job, g/l with her

not a fan on the interior but the rest is awsome dude the bay is sweet as

man thats awesome. simple but creative i really like what youve done. how many hours did you spend cleaning that bay lol

yeah no worries if your having idle problems i bet they all go away after you fix up the vent system. it's easy to test you've got it working properly. at idle open the oil cap if the idle goes a bit **** your pcv system is good if it doesn't change means your pcv system isn't right as your already getting unmetered air in via the pcv.

awesome looking interior

fark thats neat love the bay

Very neat bay. A lot of work in that. Im just curious as to how the engine goes now with all the intake mods? Ive been thinking about going with the XF throttle and stainless piping with a POD, but if it does nothing for performance then I won't bother.

thanks woggster, mrsn8r and magnum06. it goes pretty well with the intake mods, very responsive down low and pulls better high in the revs. without the xf and everything it felt like it dropped off at about 3500-4000rpm. it does the 0-60 pretty quick but obviously still being na it doesn't have the power to accelerate to 100 that quick. overall i would say the xf throttle is worth it (it only cost me about $50 to do) but it does take time to sort out the idle

new pics the bay has been resprayed Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I'm not a fan of the interior, but massive points for doing it all yourself. That bay is very, very nice. I really like it. Question: your radiator overflow bottle hoses; where do they go/how do they get to the radiator? And how is your power steering fluid reservoir mounted?

thats nice as man .. ( good stuff ) sweeet i know now :P nice job man .... interor ...... all i can say is hmm but 110% on the engine bay man ...

fark, in one word, clean! good work bud interior is very unique, i havnt seen that before when was the bay resprayed? did you do it or done before?

abasoloutly awesome na man looks sweet as bay and i actually like the interior had to look at it for q while but well done
