alrighty then... so yesterday purchased a 2m x 1.5m sheet of 2mm ally sheet to start the construction of the undertray. the new undertray will stretch back from the front bar to the rear of the engine cross member (pics to follow). now construction of the undertray will start after the 17th of this month as that is when I finish up with my current employer and will have plenty of time leading up to the commencement of my new job. also on the go is a completely new turbo configuration from manifold to exhaust. first will be a custom made stainless steam pipe manifold supporting the factory 35r turbo wearing a 1.06 tial stainless vband exhaust housing. the main reason im sticking with the 35r and changing the housing is firstly for response (and also keeping the powerband in the meaty part of the rpm) and secondly im looking to in the future upgrade to the gtx 35r cartridge which will utilise the same comp and exhaust housings and capable of supporting over 400rwkw consistantly on pump fuel. the reason im goin to the tial stainless housing is not just because they look absolute sex but because of the ease of maintainance and fitting. from the turbo back will be a 3"-4" stainless stepper followed by a 4" turbo back exhaust. the gate will remain the current tial 44mm that is fitted, only plumbed in using a stainless flexpipe as opposed to the current screamer arrangement. fabrication of this will commence in the first part of january and once complete the the ute will go in for a complete retune. its funny how this new job and increased spare time has renewed my enthusiasm for this project. I have a whole new perspective for this build and think that with the new level of commitment to developing this ute, should make it really something quite unique. future plans are to fit her up with some new shoes (trying to find some nice wheels in the right offsets to fit 9.5f and 10.5 r rims to her), a hard cover, new airbox, new oil cooler (come on kev from process west, make it happen), a new right hand headlight with the guts removed and die grinded out into a nice ram air for the new airbox, some new brakes (looking ideally for a set of f&r brembos off a pursuit ute (6 piston fronts and the big rears aswell) and some new seats to replace the current spongy unlaterally supportive stock seats that are in there. that is all for now and look forward to updating this thread with some pics from the initial undertray design and fitting cheers adam
