  1. Happy Birthday Hoops!

  2. Happy Birthday Hoops!

  3. I will try it and see how it go's.
  4. That is Sledgehammer
  5. If you want the full Brute set up the will be very little factory suspension parts left
  6. Springs is just the start however there isn't much to it really, I don't have any info on hand but I will call my suspension guru tomorrow and get some more details for you
  7. Ok I have read most of the literature on this subject and I am still confused on which way to go. You read one thing that says you have to use a BOV then you read another saying that they are not needed at all. What I would like to know from you guys' n gals who is using a BOV and why, also who is not using one and why. I know that has been a lot of threads on this however none of them really come to a conclusion on what is the better set up and why. I don't want this to turn into a sh!t fight I just want members opinions on what set up they have and why.
  8. Thanks mate The brute ute set up is a form of King Springs, they are just adjusted for racing/handling, I still have to do the shocks in mine and when I do it will be bilsteins all the way
  9. Why what power are you running??? What power are you planning??? If you are planning on injectors etc I assume you are still stock.
  10. Yeah sorry mate I re read your post and edited mine to suit. Don't worry about a cooler unless you are chasing big numbers, the standard ones are fine until around 320rwkw. Try C&V Performance or Autotech Engineering in Sydney.
  11. Both the manual and the auto are capable of taking 350rwkw+
  12. :Edit: Deleted
  13. For 2k - 2.5k go for a custom tune and a set of injectors, that will comfortably see you to 280 - 300rwkw. Dont worry about your clutch it will be fine.
  14. Sorry mate I cant agree with that at all, if you have the right set up they handle like they are on rails, I have the brute ute set up in mine and its awesome. See attached pics for how she sits
  15. That looks great, you don't want to go to much lower for practicality reasons, that looks tough as is
  16. You wont be disapointed when you pick it up, it will be well worth the wait. What colour? What options? And what mods are planned

    ute register

    Hi guys I have been hanging around here for a while but haven't been very active so I thought I should pull my finger out and post up some pics of my ute. Here is a short list of the mods so far: Capa Flash, Drilled Injectors, Custom 3.5inch Dump Pipe, Modified 3.5 inch Cat, Custom 3.5inch Exhaust, Custom Race Muffler, Nizpro Intercooler, Custom Tuned by Elite Automotive @ 453.3 rwhp. Brute Ute Racing Suspension, Pole Position Tri Pod & XForce gauges, AWC Custom Made Hard Cover with BF Carbon Fiber Wing, AWC Fiberglass Drift Bonnet, AWC Carbon Fiber Airbox & Cold Air Intake and BF GT 19 inch Wheels (I know there is more but that's all I can think of at the moment lol). Enjoy
  18. I couldn't agree more, I have the same set up with exhaust mods and it is sensational, one of the best coolers on the market with out a doubt.
  19. If it is still up for grabs could you please PM me details
  20. I purchased one of the Herrod Stealth's and only ran the tunes that came with it for a week, as stated before get the box as cheap as you can from who ever you can and get it custom tuned to your car, you will not be disappointed.
