been keeping myself busy today working on the car..
started by fitting the rear shocks, then the diff control arms fitted with all new bushes, and finally the slotted rotors and pads. tomorrows plans are to do some work on the front end, slotted rotors, new pads, tie rod ends, lower control arms with new bushes, front radious arm bushes, and upper and lower ball joints. lots to keep me busy on my time off work

Another small update, started fitting up the catch can last weekend and finished it off today,
I also altered the intake pipe to suit the serpentine belt and fitted the EL serpentine belt cover.

did you find the exhaust made a big difference??
also with that dyno graph, i wouldn't believe the torque reading, its WAY to high for that power level. that shops kw are usually spot on, but his tourque figures are rather inflated...

the body kit is a scorcher kit, a guy called Paul Madden makes them. But i would not recommend it, as it took me 8 months to get mine after paying for it.
the wheels are RJR 19" Tremors.
