I will definitly be in Brissy in June/July (am going on a 'round auz' cruise in the UC)!! Im going round the coast way, so sunny coast to see a mate, brissy to see another (and you!!), sydney, melbourne, all the big cities excluding taz!! I'll let you know when the time draws near! I'm lookin forward to it!

How quick is the UC compared to ur old one?? I found that a low 15 second 1/4mile in mine is DEFINITLY an improvement over the old 202!!

I would have done exactly the same thing, and I'm sure the carpet will look great too. Did you just vinyl-spray the dash and console? or did you stick a different one in there? Either way, fantastic work, next you have to get some nice wide rear tyres and make the front wheels closer to the guards for the Pro Street look :P

Hey Sarsha the UC looks good! What other plans do you have for it?? It should go pretty hard with the 179HP in there! Go hard!
