Once I get the renos for the house finished and then we are going to refinance, I will have more than enough to get another one but this time I will be able to afford all the goodies that I want.

Probably looking at about two years away though.

@ Mudski you wont get any light bar to give you distance even though they are impressive,
its the hwy driving where you'll miss them, slow night work driving tracks there is no better light IMO
than a led bar

Yeah mate i know the light bar doesn't give distance. But the light output is so great from the lightbar there is more than enough light for a 100 metres, even more, down the road. But even on the highway these IPF's are garbage even with the HID's in them. Gotta find something better now. Just wasted $170 for nothing, plus the covers I bought for them.
As for your switches. You can't fit three Carling switches in that blank. You probably know but I thought to bring it up just incase someone else didn't. I made a new plate which now fits three Carling switches in there.

Picked up my new 2nd hand rhino rack this evening........ 3 heavy duty bars with 110mm legs, 1800mm alloy rack, high lift jack holder and a spare set of longer 150mm legs. Was a little fiddly fitting it in thee dark and I have to say the wind noise is far less noticeable than with my old full length rack.

@ Ben e suppose they just have stainless is because, the std black ram head looks a bit cheap on a $800 piece of snorkel
IMO they look un finished without something on the end , a fabbed S/S would look trick

Paint it black and all is well. And I do believe they're not quite $800

Just fitted a 2 3/4" Beaudesert Exhaust and EGR block, now waiting for Dawes valve to arrive. I had the pleasure of assisting the shop to fit the exhaust, I would hate to have fitted this on the driveway at home.

Picked up this high flowing bad boy today. It takes a panel filter and with the filter in it will flow over 800 cfm at 0.5 in-hg, and much much more without the filter, but the filter is kinda necessary

Bailed on the front. I will get not sure about tube front so i'll just get the rear now

Fair enough, no point getting something if you're not sure....... I must admit, I'm quite partial to the tube bars though. They just look right on the GQs

Thats a nice looking air box mate, who makes them up ?? I was planning on making something similar but using a corvette c6 air filter. One other thing, how much room does it take ??

It was made by a boat builder. It goes on the passenger side wheen arch, I also have to relocate the vacuum canister and hoses etc and I am going to use a cheap catch can as the overflow bottle, as the factory one is in the way.

Would you say it takes up more space than the factory 4.5 barrel air box ??

That unit looks like its made from alloy, i was going to use 1.2mm stainless only coz my tig doesn't do ally.
