 NEWS:

!- Car was Featured in the Street Commodores Magazine Issue 154 - Before body kit was fitted

!- Will be going in Home Brewed section of Street Comms Mag again issue 159!!

!- i just bought a Calais/HSV Chrome boot strip and a Calais/Statesman Boot-lid liner to hide the bare metal that shows when u open the boot.

!- I have re-wired the boot spoiler in the correct cable.. and now the spoiler light actually works properly (not intermittantly) now!

OK, so it was making this noise when i started it up like a squeeling noise like a fan belt slip. so i had a look, and i suspected just a pulley. i ended up replacing 2 pulleys and the fan belt as the belt was cracked and two pulleys have screwed bearings.. $107 later, and im kinda happy haha..lol

Old Pulleys and belt:                                                                     New pulleys and belt:

 

 funny how quick $107 adds up there:

 

 

here are some pix while i was wiring the spoiler in. while the spoiler was off. i stood back and said.. yeah that looks not bad.. so eventually i will take the spoiler off and get the holes patched..maybe!
