LOOK LOOK She's BACK!!!!!!!!

She is finally in my hands.... NOT my Bro's any more

the drive was smooth, except for the wheels need aligning, central locking need fixing up.
it cost me just under 1 1/2 tanks of fuel from Sydney to Brisbane.... not bad.

and for those wondering about balancing their engine i will have that answer when i get the wheel alignment and a service done.

Cheers,
Dexi

OK just an update....

yesterday i pulled out the dash and tidied up the wiring, hooked up the boost gauge with the wires hidden under the dash, not on the outside. rearranged the bloody alarm wires...
Has anyone had the same problem as i have had with alarm installs have been so messy and aren't hidden away like they should be????

i have also replaced my blinker stalk as i couldn't get the right blinker to work. i bodgied up the fusable link ans it was connected by one strand or wire, so i got my amp connected to the wire I fixed.

Now all i have to do is swap my central locking for a new one and remove the locks. then get the dings out of the front fenders and change the front kit.... thanks to kyle, when i pay for it anyway.

thats it for now. as far as i can tell, till something goes wrong... everyone should know what im talking about.

Cheers,
Dex

ok update for now.....

I have just recently got my hands on a Microtech LT8s (Thanks to BennyET)

I plugged in the ECU and gave it a test run. she starts but doggs when i give it a rev... Either the TPS isnt the right one and it needs a tune for my set up. So off it goes for now. back to stock for now just gotta clean the spark plugs cos the microtech flooded the plugs.

now i just have to wire up the right TPS, which i got with the ECU but it doesn't bolt up. so i am getting the RRC Intake, I/C.

I'll have pics soon, when there is something to take a photo of.
