Seems like a pretty good price for the Explorer! Probably better off using the 19Ib injectors instead of mucking around with the AU ones anyway. I'm sure it will be a nice improvement. I can't remember if you have extractors and exhaust yet?

By the way what arms are they? Whiteline? I can't remember who makes those. Are they Fairlane specific?

Yeah I saw the explorer sitting on fleabay with no bids and put min bid on and left it at that so it must've been for me!, yeah I bought the exhaust off evl098's boat (advance headers + full 3") and put on a pair of new sports cats while I was there, very loud but I like it almost sounds ol' skool V8. Not sure what brand the arms are, only 6901 05-11 no. on them and they were on a ED falcon.
btw I painted the dash fascia black a while back and put in a custom cluster as well.

Where did the gauge mask/film come from?

I'd like one identical to factory but white. Same font and lettering etc, factory style.

Did you change the back lighting colour?

$5 discount lol...

In all seriousness though did you see the last EL GT Wheel that sold on ebay last week? It went for $700.00 plus post... (However that was brand new)

Should be interesting to see what mine fetches

I picked up the whole cluster off eBay for 99c ! Castle Hill gauges I think (yes I am a tight -a**) he wanted $20 delivery so I picked it up from the other side of Sydney, I added the Tickford stickers also from ebay, and painted the needles flouro and the foreground in silver, it doesn't owe me much :roll: but it could do with more light at night it's pretty dull but hey it's cheap! :lol: :lol:
btwef007 I might hold you to the $5 discount! :lol: :lol:

How is everybody going with their loungerooms on wheels?

It seems I really can't help myself. I bought another set of wheels tonight....

I'll try get some pics tomorrow if the weather is nice enough to take the car out.

Why do you want another wheel? If yours is worn, you can re-dye it. http://www.leatherique.com/steering-wheels.html

I'll do mine at some stage.

Yours looks great already. :D

What wheels are they for $4k?

I'm guessing you are thinking DOHC Turbo or?

Thanks! I've been looking at a set of 18x9.5 and 18x11.5 work VS-XX.

Not saying too much on the engine conversion side, but yes, DOHC Turbo. But not a 4L.....
