So I finally got off my anus and got some pics, not very interesting but I have been really busy working a lot and since buying a new house and having a baby on the way in 3 months things are getting a bit crazy around the house.

 

Had to adjust the coilovers as I am getting the car engineered soon and he wanted the car a little higher, Have run into an issue with the rims as they are to much of an offset for the car. Have put the new VF34 turbo in and must say the car is now running a lot more fuel friendly, getting around 10L/100kms.

 

I wont say anymore just some pics to gander at.

Been really lazy, Spent all my money on two new PC's, getting the car engineered and all the baby stuff ive been buying, Trying to get all the toys I want before the young fella comes so I don't miss out on getting them.

 

Will update soon as I am getting a new front bumper and getting the whole car or just the front resprayed. But yeah car is finally engineered! So all the mods will start soon and will have more pictures then haha.

I knocked the wife up, She is 8 Months along now.

 

I got the guy out in Jerra to do it, He was the only one that was happy to go through it with me before giving him money. John never replied to me and Ray was a bit rude so I went with Paul.

Made a trip up to Sydney to buy a new RSK front bar. Thanks again Samwise for coming to Campbelltown to meet me.

 

Has some small damage but will be fixing it up and getting it painted hopefully over the next few weeks but with my Son due on the 23-Sep I may not have much time to post up pictures. Will post some up when I get home of it before.

The RSK front bar is going to look great and good luck with becoming a father and I hope it all goes smoothly :)

It needs a bit of work to come up good though haha, hopefully I can get it looking right.

 

Cheers for that, we are playing the waiting game now as he is due this month.

 

Another question, What have people with GEN 3 Libertys done with with TMIC ducting when putting on a STI TMIC? I am having troubles finding anything through searching google. The only thing I can find is a guy that turned an N/A bonnet into a turbo one haha.

I will have to have a look, I don't really know where to start with that part.I was looking at modding the current one.

 

So I forgot to update, Car has passed engineering inspection at Dickson. So car is all legal now.

 

Updated first post with car details.

So I have recently redone my bonnet as I the first go looked really **** and was not the exact colour... and it had stone chips that turned into big bits of white paint as it started to peel... This time around a put alot of time into the prep work, still didn't spend as much time as I would have liked on the bonnet and front bumper as there are a few marks that kinda show up that are stone chips in the old paint under it. The old paint I was able to just peel off like Plasti-Dip
