beauty!!
thanks chief. I have to give a massive shoutout to Easy Automotive. It's really nice to deal with a top bunch of blokes and even to have chiefs boss give me a call just to have a chat about the car and general stuff was really impressive. Doubly impressive when you see how much work is going on, for them to take time out to chat to their customers THAT is what customer service is about. Plus its been calming knowing that my car is in chiefs hands. (think i woulda gone nuts if it was in a strangers hands!!). Cant wait to get my hands back on it chief!!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() (also kylie will be happy to have me stop talking about how good it'll be when it comes back).

picked up the car tonight, jesus the exhausts looks sexy!!!!!
ill take some photos tomorrow @ work. The sound is tops, wouldnt mind it a bit louder but as chief said, its awesome sounding without being a gateway to trouble!!! The gauges are cool as well. Extremely happy with the end result and i think cycling is going to take a firm back seat for a while haha.

Hey Congratulations on your new toy champ, looks very neat and ready for its potential to be unleashed!
A respectable figure on the rollers thats for sure, though excuse my ignorance but out of curiousity is that completely stock standard that got you 216rwkw? Cause i remember with the BA's anyways they usually got between 180-200rwkw mark? Anyways enjoy it the best thing i did was selling the 6cyl and jumping into a v8!
