Yep the kit that Mark is going to use is the capa kit. The capa kit doesnt have an intercooled version so mark is going to make that up. And he is also going to customise the kit to perfect it. And get the best possible quality of workmanship he can.

Cheers mate.

Shaun i saw some guy on AFF saw its to much white. I rekon its on the borderline of being to much but its not. Maybe throw a tad of black in the front somewhere.....dunno where though. But yeh i rekon its not to much, its good to see something that someones made themselves and not slapped on a bunch of krap thats common that you can buy. You need those plates back to make her happy again biggrin.gif.

Do you want a full detail? Let me know.

Actually i just saw the black rubber on the side of the car, its not to much if you have that black rubber on there i rekon.

Nice job....any other look wise plans?

Hey glenn how it going.

I have put the chrome striping back in the grooves now so that breaks it up a bit. Will have to get the plates. They will also break it up a bit too.

Na nothing more to do on looks now. Just focusing on performance now.

And about that detail. I will have to let you know on that one. Might be after I get the blower mate.

Here are a couple of pics with the chrome strips on. Looks better and breaks the white up. And with the black and wjite lionhuntr plates on it will be better again. Will go with the black on white theme.

Also fitted a Gates Racing belt. Realy only because its blue. But its 3 times stronger than a normal belt, wont stretch at all and a bunch of other stuff.

sweet where you pick them up from. been looking for a pair for the ute. hows things coming along with the blower? thinking off selling the vortech of mine if your interested?

foz- 05-13-2008
Good pick up mate.Now you will have to paint it yellow to match the seats tongue.gif

xt3valve- 05-13-2008
haha wiseguys hey. Na I didnt care what colour they were. I am lucky to have even found some.

About the blower.

I have decided to go with BPT's positive displacement unit. It uses the eaton M122 blower. Custom manifold to suit and custom fuel rails. gets full boost at 1500rpm. Just above idle.
Its about 6 weeks away. I will add a few pics in a minute

Coming along quite nicely there Sean.

The GT seats will help set your interior off for sure biggrin.gif. Are you going to bother with the door trims? biggrin.gif

xt3valve- 05-13-2008
Cheers fury. I might fit the front door trims just for the hell of it. The rear ones are for rear electric windows which my car doesnt have. So might leave them off for now. Until I can change them to electric windows.

Some pics of the setup im getting. These pics are from the 4v engine but all is very very simmilar. Same blower unit and manifold has minor differences.
