    Its another GQ!

    Hey guys. I thought id Share my GQ.

    Its a 1991 GQ ST, 4.2 Diesel. I bought it stock as a rock about 5 or so years ago.

    Mechanically, Ive made my own turbo setup using a steam pipe manifold, Rb25 Turbo and a 3" exhaust. Ive fitted a big alloy radiator, snorkel, Safari clutch, 110amp alternator and a couple of gauges to keep an eye on things.

    Outside, it got an ARB winch bar with a Warn winch, ARB brush bars/steps, custom made rear bar and wheel carrier, rear 1/4 chop, ARB HID spotties and now an LED light bar ontop of the bullbar instead of the spotties I used to have.

    Underneath its got 5" springs, foam cell shocks, adjustable panhards, drop boxes, modified brake lines and rolls on GQ TI alloys with cooper ST tyres daily and for the bush 35x12.5 15 Mickey T Claws on 15x9 Alloys.

    Inside, it has an aftermarket drivers bucket seat, winch controls on the dash, UHF, home made storage boxes and a few other things.

    Im sure I have forgotten a heap more but thats roughly it!
