Well Done Wazza.

Welcome on board.

You'll love the Hilux, great truck!


Hope it all goes well for you, plenty of good ideas on here for modifying and accessorising your new truck.

Anyone who gets their hilux before xmas is extremely lucky.....I was told at the start of the week that every single vehicle in australia is already sold and every vehicle on the ship on the way here is already sold so there no spare stock lying around unless someone cancels an order or something....has a lot to do with the tax incentive for a new car thingy......

enjoy your hilux....

Thanks guys, i certainly will enjoy it. :D I've already been in contact with SIGNMAN for my NEWHILUX.NET sticker.

I've got the prado copy speedy wheels going on it on saturday, and lucky for me i've got a mate thats an auto sparky thats going to fit a dual battery system in it over the xmas holidays.

Now i want to try and save some money for a suspension lift and an ARB front bar, not sure what to get yet though. :?

Good onya Wozza.

I have had mine on order since late Oct and have just been told I wont see it till late Jan :evil: I am pretty pi$$ed off cause they originally told me it would be here about now.....

Cant wait for it to get here though.

I looked @ the ARB bar but they wnated to charge me $2500 for one that was painted - I told them what they could do with their bar and I am getting an Ironman Protector bar in hammertone and S/S for about $1750 fitted.

Hey, wazza, i just orded a black SR5 duel cab last week it will be here in march, The salesman who sold me my hilux recomended me to put the 17in speedy grande 2 wheels on it with bf goodrich all terrain tyres. I noticed on one of your posts that u were gonna put the speedy grande wheels on yours, just wondering how they look and are you happy with them?

Thanks
Glenn.

Hey Glenn, well i put the 16inch speedy grande wheels on with 245/70/16 Maxxis 751 AT tyres and im wrapped with how it looks now :D . I was thinking of going with 17inch but wasn't sure how it would go with clearing the inner guard and if it was going to knock the speedo out at all. All up rims and tyres cost me $1400.
I only have some pics on my phone at the moment so if you want me to i can send you a pic of my hilux by mms just PM your mobile number. Either way you go the speedy grande wheels really do look good on a black hilux.

I reckon I'll be going the ironman to. Seems like heaps better value for money to me.
