    Shipping is going to cost more than the rollpan is worth alone.

    i just ran a pipe down to just behind the radiator on the LH rail and the pod filter sits there, but the pod filter pokes into the wheel arch so i want to make a hole through radiator support for it.
    Yeah shipping costs ey?

    Ive seen this engine, V6 ecotec holden engine, in hiluxs, and i want! :p one pic is of my engine bay. The red engine bay is the V6 ecotec holden engine.

    how ugly is the old air filter box and cr@p? Egh. Haha.
    Engine pics.. First pic is my engine bay, i so want the engine in the second pic, holden V6 ectotec. A bit of a job though, but sure worth it, those V6's go hard.

    just pulled rear seating and belts out, tomorrow after gym, :D , my mate n me will begin measurements for custom sub box. I have two 12inch 1000w subs. And one 600 w amp. Will also install the six inch speakers in the sub box, which will fill the whole back of cab, and will contain amp, two subs, two speakers, and second amp for the four speakers eventually. Also wanting to buy splits for front of cabin. And will build custom door trims with 'spilt units' whatevs they r called, in the door trim. I love building custom interiors. :) im doing some interior work while this cr@p rain is hapenning, soon as it stops raining, ill be ack onto the body work.
    I welded up both old mirror mounts, just have to bog and re prime area now.
    Still working on custom door poppers, the drivers door isnt working all the time, :/ hmm.

    so, i now have my 6inch speakers with splits, and speaker spacers for them, they will go onto door trims.
    I re done my pod filter, its just sitting in the engine bay, Lux is running a heap quicker with it on. Also tuned the gas so more flows. :) but then gas isnt lasting long. Ahh well.
    also, i ended up buying a trunk popper kit, and using it for my door poppers, as its a heap stronger and easier to rig up. I just have to remove and shave door handles, but access to a mig isnt easy most times. Im a panelbeater apprentice, and can use the mig at work, its just time isnt easy when at work.
    And apparently we need enginners cert, if we shave door handles. Australia has bullshiv laws. :S
    So how are you fellas going? This forum has died...?

    was just at the car wreckers before, and found an electric sliding sunroof in a celica. So i unbolted it and cut the roof section out. And paid $30 for it! :D
    Now to remove the headlining in the Lux and see how it can fit without cutting to much structure out.

    haha, nice. I bought a Monster Energy hat,$30, everyone loves it.

    You save sooo much money when you do all the work yourself. If i had the time and money, i would be bagging my Lux. But i dont so i have to wait... :/

    lol, make your own, or find someone there, it isnt that hard. Hardest part will be lining it up and welding it on.
    By the time it ships to you, you could have one cheaper and already on.
