I'm undecided atm on buying at greddy plenum off another sau member. Weighing up whether it will make a $1000 noticeable difference tho or will I still achieve my power goal with the stock plenum. Might as well do it while I have the car with abe so he can make up the new cooler piping.

The plazmaman one gives you a gain of about 8 kilowatts,,,what the front facing ones do though is clean up your engine bay. They make it a lot easier to get at injectors/coils/plugs plus a whole lot of other stuff.

Cheers

Yup that's exactly why I changed my mind. $1000 for 8kws doesn't add up to a big enough benefit. Think I might put that money into some areo. Abe will be making me up a front splitter and just need to find a place that sells bee-r rear wing like Richo's.

Dropped the car off at the panel beaters to get some work done. Getting the massive hole from removing the sunroof fixed. Was gunna just patch it up but got talked into cutting the roof off and replacing it with a new one. Also getting getting my GTR wing base installed and painted so I can attach a bee*r rear wing, side skirts installed, BL front lip installed and front bar Resprayed and new front windscreen installed. All up got quoted $3500. Should be finished in a few weeks. So will keep you posted with pics.

Yup it's all happening over the coming weeks. Once finished here it will be sent straight to forced Motorworx and chequered tuning. Can't wait for it to be all finished and I can finally hit the track.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
