What are everyone's planned mods?

[mcflux]

Replied to pm

[LUXO_8]

believe it or not, ive actually done most of what i said i was going to do....

shocked????....i am!

[Pearly]

• Upgrade the gas system as it's not getting enough fuel at the moment.

• Maybe grab a better cam to suit while I'm at it.

• Air bag it. I have some spare bags I didn't use on mine, so the LTD is gonna get them That way I can use it to tow again.

• Then maybe an exhaust.

The LTD is more of a 'get us from a to b' car so the mod budget for it is kinda low.

[gozza]

When it gets back on the road, there should be a fair bit replaced...
the Head should have some minor porting work to help out with the cam.
timing kit installed, AU head gasket and other minor fixes are the next mods.

At the same time i'm still putting some finishing touches on the BA bodykit which is taking too long to finish (i hate the hot weather!)

atleast i can say i did all mine.
BA kit is practically done.
don't know why i was complaining about the hot weather, at least i can do a bit of fibreglassing in that weather, stupid rain.

next mods for me = lip spoiler completion.
18" (hopefully AJR) rims.
making it faster!

1. decent new shockers all round

2. nice dark metallic window tint
3. BBM conversion, EF cam
4. LSD with a decent ratio
5. EF doorhandles
6. new exhaust (2.5 cat-back) that won't scrape down the the freeway like the one i have, and also a new tip (don't have one atm)

Well i've not done too much. I did get new tyres, and the AJR's are nice and shiny again. I've put 2 sets of rear shocks under it. I changed my mind on EF door handles and so i'll probably never do that. I canned the BBM idea, but i may still chuck an EF cam in if i get a chance just for something to do. I have taken a break from uni, and have lost my entire income, so the LSD won't happen for a while yet. I fixed the exhaust up and it's doing the job so far.

The shed is now operationg as a full workshop with two hoists etc, the chassis jig has yet to be moved from it's old location, and we have yet to find room to fit the spraybooth in (damn!)
