Cheers in advance


Roughly 1300 I think for the fuel tank. Was built in to the overall price so can't confirm exact.
As for handling. Couldn't tell you as I only drove 50kms prior to all the gear being put on at once so no idea as to how it affected handling

Unsure on wether to keep the ipf900xs hids or upgrade to lightforce Genesis, 215led or the htx

Seeing Iv got the 20" lightforce light bar I don't know which way I go.
Thoughts ppl?

Richards lockup kit is working well.
Had a fault light come up which I cleared but was due to me not paying attention :oops:
Drives 100% better withe kit :mrgreen:

Does the kit have any effect at lower speeds or only above the set threshold.

Depends on which setting you have it on.
Low speed kicks in at 40 drops it at 35 but you have to be on the sport select like a manual.
If you labour it it fault codes
High speed kicks in at 80 out at 75. It says in the instructions 70in and 65 out. Not all that fussed at this stage about it. Makes it an enjoyable drive but your a lot more concious about revs with the low speed setting
