this guys rocks, he's old school.
way way back, way before my time, this kind of activity was common. Now, most people cant even conceptualise let alone undertake work of this type. the rice boys like to paint their wipers, dump the car on its guts and ... well, what do they actually do? i just hope he drives this thing on the road, like, all the time. i reckon falcons deserve this kind of treatment. btw commodores are s --- t. fharkov. |

Quote: btw
commodores are s --- t. straight to the point, love it. i agree though, its a good project so far, alot different to the normal... rims, cam, t5 and exhaust setup. not saying theres anythin wrong with that, just good to see something different every now and then. And fabrication is so cool  just wish i had the facilities and skills to do it!

nuffing wrong straight to the point LOL
ok just dummied up a plenum cut out of cardboard checking for clearances the large front section has to house two ZK fiarlane 66mm throttle bodies , haven't yet made any contouring features as i just wanna get a rough idea what things might look like Priced aluminum wooooooooo its expensive a 1200 by 2400 by 6mm thick grade 5005 is $350+gst plus delivery 8mm thick is even dearer by about another $200 have several designs in mind so a full sheet should do quite a few plenums and not to mention the odd customer or too cheers

i considered going into business making them but would cost me about $20 000 to start off and the government will only give you 10 000. a zk will be awsome. i considered making one out of a zk a while back. i have been offered $2500 for the seat
