Coop450 Member 144 Member For: 12y 8m 27d Posted 01/12/12 09:51 AM Share Posted 01/12/12 09:51 AM Car looks awesome man, looks so similar to mine just different wheels. You are going a little further than me with the mods, my wife drives our car to work everyday so I need to keep it pretty conservative. I will be watching your thread closely to see how it all goes, I think eventually I will want the same mods as you. Any plans to take it to the track mate?Cheers Coop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am lucky I live 20 mins from eastern creek so can head to the drags anytime and its handy for things like powercruise and what not. Wheels on your car look sweet.

Coop450 Member 144 Member For: 12y 8m 27d Posted 03/12/12 06:27 AM Share Posted 03/12/12 06:27 AM Hey bud, If your looking for an Xr8 bonnet look up Bogan special in sydney. They are on ebay or you can get them direct off them. The bonnets are a full steel aftermarket bonnet already in primer, they are $399 plus delivery. I just had mine delivered today, took it down to the painter and we opened it together, overall the bonnet is really good quality for the money, mine had real small damage in one corner probably from the courier but my painter will fix that no drama. A lot cheaper than the genuine item and once fitted you would probably never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mums work mate's husband works for Ford spares in Canberra. He said he can get me a genuine one for cheap...his cheap was $1600 -.- un painted.So I think your place sounds better (and I have a friend who's a spray painter) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcinnes Donating Members 393 Member For: 12y 8m Gender: Male Location: Canberra Posted 12/12/12 06:00 PM Author Share Posted 12/12/12 06:00 PM I hopefully get the car back today :D turns out I got the dates wrong haha. I thought it was booked in on the 3rd, turns out it was the 10th. So it went in on Monday.Went with Di Fillipo Exhaust system 3.5" with 4" dump, Plazmaman 4" air intake with battery relocation, Stage 2 Plazmaman Intercooler kit, plazmaman fuel pump (pretty sure its the Bosch 044 that's just tweaked by plazmaman), New injectors and valve springs (I dont remember the brands of these), xcal 3 and tune Havent heard anything back from them yet, so im guessing/hoping everything is going well and no boost spikes.If I get it back today I'll post some pictures tonight :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
