Welcome mate,

Check out the project cars (The Showroom and In The Build subforums) and the 6 cyl tech section for many, many, many threads on who has done what to their car to get more power.

The interior looks like a nightmare to me (each to their own, you'd probably find my std interior boring) but I like the rest of the ute! Same with the XD.

What you need to ask yourself is what do you want out of this ute. Do you want something with a bit more go in it, or do you want a heap of torque, do you want to drag race it, cruise in it, etc etc

Nice work! Remember reading about your XD. Coloured interior's not something I normally like but yours looks pretty good. (probably coz it's not painted :-P )

hey mate love the XD always had a soft spot for the first box cars of the early eighties :thumbsup: the ute is a good looking blue, the interiors in both are bright but none the less they both look really good. you must have put alot of hours into them?
