    Thanks. I was pretty happy with it too. I bought the car as is about 6 weeks ago. It is 2004, has 96,000ks, MAFless tune, Pacemaker ceramic 4 into one headers and Exhaust Technologies system, K&N filter and the two hole mod to the air box.
    My brother in law who is an automotive lecturer at the TAFE said the tune is old and not really spot on and there is restriction in the intake despite the K&N and the mod. He said he has often ditched the K&N and got better numbers form a new standard filter. He is going to do a tune for me in the new year and we will try a stock vs K&N and see the difference.

    So far the "personalisation" has been the removal of some dodgy vinyl carbon fibre from the B pillars and
    changing this



    to this




    It has a Sony double DIN DVD player and some tasty DLS splits in the front. I have bought some JL Audio 8W1V3-4 8" subs to replace the stockies and am going to add a couple of amps to beef it all up.

    Its never "over" ;-)

    Pic I took in the Barossa when we went to the Monaro Nationals. Cousins SSV, Brother in Laws Ford and my CV8. Lions ganging up on the old Henry.

    Looks like you have some big brakes onboard too!

    Yeah I was lucky enough to have them come with the car. Big bucks otherwise. Apart from the additional stopping power they look pretty cool too.

    What method did you use to fit the 8" subs in the parcel shelf?
