The Rocket Launcher

(well everyone elses topics were catchy!)

My Ride

Purchased second hand in August 2005.

Gradually building the beast into a nice piece of machinery (not that it isn't already).

My favourite addition would have to be my 17" Advanti Vivid alloys with some Yokohama Geolanders. Can really throw this baby around the road!

I colour coded these to match the black and steel coloured ARB nudge. And with a bit of gentle persuasion from Noel and Jalal, I added the LightForce spotlights.

Then I chucked on a rocket launcher... ok it's not, but it has the potential to be a huge spud launcher... ah the memories... ok ok it just houses my fishing rods. A bit of 90mm PVC, some stainless steel saddles and the Rola mounting pieces that insert into the factory fit roof racks.

That's just what's on the outside... see my modifcations for the full list.

Next addition to this page will show the eyelids which have made a vast improvement (in my opinion) to the look of the car.

Re: Naff - Burgundy 2002 ST

Thanks Matt/Rach

The rims made a huge difference to it... the burgundy isn't that common a colour in NSW (from what I've seen) but noticed a lot more in QLD.

Being from the coast, you might recognise the background in those photos?

I grew up in Kariong! Brother is still there so I visit the area quite regulaly.. haven't seen you yet, but am looking out for those 20's.

Yep... spot on. emoticon

Just in front of Brisbane Water with the railway line on the right. I thought you might have been talking about along Point Clare or further up towards Woy Woy on Brisbane Water Rd. Plenty of nice places up the Central Coast really... just it's a long way for the city slickers :P

Re: The Rocket Launcher

Ah... I couldn't wait...

Jalal has assisted me greatly to get the HiTech full system upgrade done on my Exy. I was unable to get time off myself so Jalal has lent me some of his time... which I am very thankful for Jalal!

So, The Rocket Launcher steps up a notch with the HiTech system... can't wait to drive it.

Pictures below kindly provided to me by Jalal... emoticon

Before & After

Next stop???

Re: The Rocket Launcher

I tell you what Nath. Am starting to like the look of 2 sexy exies parked in my driveway, so I think am gonna keep yours. hahahaha emoticon

I felt a HUGE difference between driving your exy to Hi-Tech in the morning and when I drove back home in the afternoon with the power pack.

Am sure you gonna love it emoticon
