great spot to put the boost gauge, i recon if you had the time and paticence you could get a piece of black perspecs and fill in around the gauge and make it a snug fit in the pocket and it would look really trick i recon :ugeek:

Something like this... ??

Or this for the passenger side?

Truck is looking good Swinny... I'll send you one of these gauge pods for testing.

Yep!! spot on Matty 8-)

great idea I recon

Yeah it's a cracker of an idea... Simple ideas are always the best.

Not sure what the angle will be like?
Probably not ideal for a guage you want to see all the time.

We are looking at and angled version, so it faces more towards the driver.

Good stuff Swinny... where are you off to?

Post some pics of the scenery! I'm compiling a list of places to hit in WA hopefully later in the year.
I'd hope to be able to spend about 3 weeks exploring Margaret River and not sure where else.

Cheers
Matt

hay matt,
well it was only a small get away trip but defantly going again to one of the places, we went up to exmouth first for a visit

then we travelled down the west coast of ningaloo and stayed at a camp ground called yardie creek orsome little place.

next day we travelled south again threw a single way track threw an RAAF bombing range ( all good ) alot a corrigation, to a station called well of course ningaloo station and it was far the best place to camp cheap as $10 a night right on the beach untouched reef to explore defantely going again soon..

next we travelled to coral bay by single lane dirt/corrrigated and pot holes everwhere but fun, well coral bay is just a family place with kids so the wife and i didn't stay to long..

hope thats enought pics well or to many.. :mrgreen:

at last, just fitted up my new sterling 3" ss exhaust, and what a differnts it makes, the one problem i had was one of the dump pipe nuts rounded off so had to get a chiesel in there and crack the fella off even the single hex sockets didnt work.. sounds alot better.

aswell i fitted up a plug and play turbo timer withc will help cooling down..

5 days from the state to my door what the hell quick as, cant wait to fit them

ive ordered a set of rims aswell from matty

just have to wait till they rock up.

they look orsome just sitting next to the rig.

aswell i've ordered a second hand 120 prado front diff with 4.1:1 ratios.
the ARB place in town when i got a quote for the lockers R111 for the front and R132 for the rear they kept telling me i didnt need to change my front diff to suit the 4.1:1 ratios as they sell the lockers to suit a hilux with 3.9:1 and up ??
well i believe theres more truth on this site than they say...
