    CONSUL CLEANING XE

    well that worked,i only had about 2 litres left in the can and that only lasted about 2 mins but got it off quick smart and in the grooves as well,strong degreaser should be able to do the rest.

    PERFORMANCE GOLD 15X7

    back in the 80's 16'' simmons were all the rage,just about every commo had a set,if i was back in that era today i would have bought a set of bbs gold mesh like the ones green tuff had on it,which originated from the porshe cup cars in europe massive 19x14 on the ass

    PERFORMANCE GOLD 15X7

    YEAH true,i think the 20'' looks silly on a xd-f around 15 to 18'' i prefere.

    PERFORMANCE GOLD 15X7

    v5 is nice and period correct,you see quite a lot of them on grand prix's,but the new performance gold looks almost too good to resist for a look a like enkie.

    SUPER CHARGER VS TURBO

    Aussie speed does these nice weiand kits for the crossy and 4.OL engines for about 6 grand ,but seriously for the same amount of money would a turbo kit be just as easy to fit and or more power/economy for your dollar,i always dream about putting one of these on an engine being a v8 or 6 ,from what i have read and seen around 6psi is the norm for the little blower but can be wound up with a pulley change,and with a turbo seems sky is the limit with 30 psi or more with hi po set up's,i have also seen a 4/71 on a crossy with some sort of custom manifold,manly on hot rods as there is plenty of engine bay room,seems its quite a popular conversion on the holden 202 but what about the 4.0L seems the turbo is so common on these engines.

    SUPER CHARGER VS TURBO

    first take off with the t5 3.25 1st gear clevo and 2.92 rear was quite good in the current xe,its a xg box.i suppose it would suit a crossy too
