We'll thought I better do a build thread rather then keep spamming my intro page

Picked up the stock standard 2007 Gu st-s in poo brown/gold nugget ( seems its a 50/50 split ) a few months ago to replace my D22. The wife was hinting she wanted something gold and shiney... I still reckon I nailed it, she might not agree :P

The back seat tray tables sealed the deal for me

And yes I went Auto, But I'm lazy, also do 100km a day in traffic on Mitchell freeway... Auto was a must

Started with preventative maintenance first, Replace inter cooler, Catch can, 3" exhaust, dawes etc etc
Then Basic front/rear recovery points

Now have done ARB battery tray and Titan rear drawers to start the touring set up while also cleaning up a old second hand trailer I picked up.

Will start looking for a steel winch bar next as the alloy bar shits me as it touches the bonnet, and start the 12v fit out on my trailer, & fit the redarc tow pro.

The wish list keeps getting longer and so does the "to do" list

If it is the same colour as mine then it is called Champagne, something you neanderthals would not understand as it represents CLASS....
