FTO AUSTRALIA

Bought some springs and strut braces from a dodgey website. Will be interesting to see if I even get them

Looks legit enough

Sound deadened

Floor seems to be in good shape... Was there any rust there what so ever?

Get insulate mats from Carbuilders bro

None at all except the bottom of the drain plugs which I removed, sanded it off, painted and then siliconed back in. The car is %80 rust free now, just have some surface rust forming behind the front grill, which I'll get to soon.

I haven't checked carbuilders, but I find most of that sh*t way overpriced. I've used this stuff before in the hilux and it does a good enough job.

Good stuff man ...

Nah it's an acoustic liner nice and soft so carpet will feel good on your feet. Basically the paint that you put down is going to do nothing to block frequencies that most commonly occur under the car. Also not too expensive.

Ohh, that's actually exactly what I'm after. I think it already had something similar under the old carpet. I've got a mate that owns a boat building business, was going to go check out his marine carpet as an option cos I know it will be free lol

Removed the front chrome & bumper Painted the bottom lip to see how she looks. ( too bad about the bent parts in it:/ )
Not sure what I prefer yet, probably with the bar on.
oh and gave that ugly coolant tank a paint.

Some fuckstain has welded a cat into the exhaust, making it impossible to remove without dropping both fuel tanks and diff... So I cut it off.
Holy f**k it's loud with half an exhaust, straight thru pipes would sound insane. So lumpy

Bit more grinding and rust proofing.
Added a tranny cooler
Sold the aircon compressor for $600 bought some black 17's heading up to Brisbane to pick them up tomorrow

Sooo, no air conditioning?

What he said

Put the splitter/spoiler back to black .. Or carbon wrap it...

It just looks odd being the same colour as the car... But JMO...

For the love of god please don't carbon wrap it

This is really coming along, looks good Toby.
