Thought it was about time to post my ute since its slowly getting to how i want it. Has been a long process, with multiple wheel and ride heights changes before i finally worked out what look i was going for.

Future mods are going to include

Ripshifter
Diff gears, Either 3.9 or 4.11
Upgrade my clutch
High flow cats and twin 3" the whole way
May look at a charger set up later on

Comments and criticism welcome...

In the beginning

How it is now

    Head work would do ALOT for them, especially with a custom cam.

    Yeah i understand that entirely... a mate of mine has a manual vz ss ute with hi-flowed twin 3 system, 232/234 cam,headwork,otr and mafless tune made just under 410rwhp..maybe this blokes headwork is more extensive than my mates...

    Either way its a good thing! Would be interesting to see wat power this makes with a hi-flowed twin 3 system smile.gif

    Castle hill Exhaust Stage 4 Head and cam package
    Custom Grind cam 230 @112lsa
    CNC shaved and ported heads

    The Custom cam would along with the head would be doing alot for it, if anything the exhaust is more than likely choking it a little bit of power.

    He did also mention Stage 4, which I am guessing is VERY extensive head work.

    Very nice mate, love everything about it. Makes me miss my old VZ SSZ ute sad.gif haha
    It is going to sound porn once you get that twin 3inch with hi flows on, should be a nice little power gain in there too if your still running stock/poor flowing cats.

    Cheers mate, i was thinking of getting a hardcover but as hard as it is to believe it does get used to carry the odd motorbike around and i couldn't see the point of taking it on and off all the time.

    As for the power gains, I know CHE really pushed it to get over 400+rwhp with my current exhaust setup which was far from ideal and if i had more money at the time i would have gone with the 3" then and there. Best thing is knowing i've probably got an easy 20+ HP just from a better suited exhaust set up. In saying that, CHE do some amazing work and are very competitive. Bottom line was i told them what i wanted and they handed my ute back with more!

    Thanks for all the comments, still has a long way to go, but has at least gotten to the point of been a quick and tidy street ute and not something every other flat brim wearing unit sticker bogan kid is driving thumbsup.gif

    Also here is a link to the build on CHE Stalkerbook page http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1...5190&type=1
