    Wonder if they have the same on the GUrlys

    Don't slap it, tap it!!!!

    Hopefully a member of the plush side will confirm this.

    Exhaust manifold off. Only broke one stud. But 3 more were found broken when I pulled the manifold off. This suggests that the head has been removed from this vehicle at some point in its life. Pity the last guy did a shit job of putting it back together. My problem now.

    Cheers burgo.
    New exhaust is in. Lots more power, economy is improving, sounds nice and sporty without being loud. I love it!
    Just need to sort out the catylitic hangar mount and I'll be a very happy chappy.

    Not the best photo but fitted a snorkel. Bought a hole saw just for it but never ended up using it. Ended up stitch drilling the hole in the side panel and filed it smooth and to the correct shape. About 5 hours worth of trial and error fitting. But it's in and I'm happy with the result. When people fit a snorkel, does the drain hole in the air box get blocked off?

    Also re painted the rear bumpers. Was tired of looking at scratches and dents.

    Cheers drewboyaus. I just used a rattle can from autobarn. Was a roll bar specific paint, not sure if it makes a difference.
