some photos for you guys first time putting them up was easy compared to what i thought it would

[triceone]

sweet as i was always a fan of the astra grill and you made the cooler fit neat, nice look

burn outs

[photoglossy]

Hmm smoke...


....poor thing

[TurboZ.Dude]

Great to see some photos, you've made quite a bit of progress! Nice!

[hoppae15]

cheers guys yeah i like the way i got the cooler to fit i really wanted it neat

ahh the only reason she copped that cook was that the tires were farked and it use to love burnouts all the way to third gear it was crazy although it wouldn't snap second on the spot.

when i first watched that video when he goes around the back of the car i thought it sounded simaliar to rotor like a lil 12a or something

could anyone tell me if that throttle body is not standard it looks a little big? plus i cant find the plug on the wiring loom for the sensor on the side of it

cheers

mate, they are weak as piss just like N12's! haha. any sort of torque and they just twist! mine always kicks out to the right on boost. might need to adjust the panhard rod again though lol.

[greengoblin]

like what you've done with mounting the cooler Nath, looks right at home and tidy, lol at your mate's mum "wtf do you think your doing" lol

yeah but n12s weigh sweet fark all which makes them so much fun so my idea is to keep weight down an power up.

greengoblin cheers mate yeah i was trying to make it as neat as possible but with as much frontal air flow as possible
