GT40P head and an explorer manifold will give you that extra punch your looking for and the maybe even a cappa eliminator chip to help control it all.

click on "paint" in windows...

load up your "image" you want to down size...

"click" on "image" (grey option box at the top of the screen) then click on "Stretch/skew" -when that loads type in to the boxes about 30% in height and width and that will reduce the photo down to a much smaller size... 305 of its original height and width...

Looks like a nice clean car.. I reckon there's nothing wrong with the interior either, its just a dodgy overexposed photo :P

Your exactly right, the flash picked up all the grit and dirt, honestly during the day you wouldn't even see any of it

Welcome along and that looks like a nice car.

From a performance POV it has the standard 'headers' on it, and the HO manifold, E7 heads, std cam, TB and MAF will be spoiling the party.

First stop should be a free flowing exhaust system, twin 2.25" or single 3" is all that is needed even with further mods. After that a decent CAI and filter, if some GT40Ps come up at the right price for that way or put the $$$ aside for some nice aftermarket alloys (AFR 165 are my pick).

For a manifold take your choice of an Explorer, GT40, Cobra, Edelbrock Performer 5.0, TFS Street Heat etc... All flow similarly.

Have fun with it!

Thanks mate, standard headers, dam, i was told they were some form of aftermarket ones, i didn't know what the standard ones looked like so i was unsure, however they do look quite small. Thanks for the help, just gave her a service tonight.

It's been a while since i posted so thought i better update. Since my last post I have been pretty busy with the car. The first thing to s**t itself were the ignition leads. So i upgraded to Top Gun 10mm spirals. Next i ditched that crappy after market gear knob and purchased an EL XR8 one in grey to match the interior (thanks Timmeh) i also put superlows in the front. Next was the paint, there were a few things with the paint i wasn't happy with so got them fixed up. I also removed the towbar shortly after this. Next I thought i'd try a pod filter and i didn't expect to notcied any difference in performance i just like the look. Next i noticed the catylitic converters were broken so i replaced them with high flow metal cats which suprisignly gave her a bit moe of a growl. My diff was the next thing to get money spent on it after it began to whine, i got the diff rebuilt with 3:55 diff gears (did have 3:23) and am very happy with the extra poke off the line. The other week i got defected so instead of putting new tyres on the 17's and i got some FG GT 19's with new tyres and painted my brakes silver. There would be heaps more things that i have done to the car but right now im struggling to think of them all. Here are some of the latest pictures. Will take some better pictures soon
