just a question, did you know the pw200 isnt regulated on the 12v rail? so, when you crank, it will drop voltage on the 12v rail, and if the alternator decides to go nuts and put out something like 18v, you could fry the computer.

if it works, thats good, but id just be careful with it.

mate your car is wicked.
would love to get the SS skirts on mine but i dont think it will ever happen...
your computer system looks awesome too.
are you going to lower her any?? thats the next thing on the list for me.
The SS mags look pretty mint, i wouldnt mind seeing a photo of her with the internationals on it. For some reason i love the solid, filled in look of em on a black car.
cheers

My car looked identical to yours with the international rims on it when I bought it. It had the executive grill just the same, which I removed and had SS front end put on.

I plan to get bonnet and front doors resprayed as the have stone chips and scratches on them from people opening car doors onto them :ranting:. also get a small crack on the front bar fixed from hitting a kangaroo.

The black when it is chipped can be seen from miles away as it has a White undercoat paint which shows easy on a chip.

The car is now used for mostly business purposes now, so have decided to get gas fitted to the car soon.

Watch this space for updated pics coming soon!!!!!!

all sounds the go.
spewin about the paint chips. thankfully mine aint got any on her (...yet..)

would be interested to see how much coin it is for LPG. i drive ~500km a week (country) so gas sounds like an obvious choice. especially with the gov rebate.

Gas

I heard the gas systems which are usually used have got a few creases that need to be ironed out?? much like the BA Falcon gas systems??
anyone else heard this one??
