Yeah boot install. Its the false floor. Its an odd shape because i have to dodge an lpg tank then try and fit all of my stuff in the boot. its taken me a lot of planning and moving things to get it how i want. ill be working on it over the next month or 2 and then all will be revealed. Geelong show is my goal. yours came out extremely neat and still very practical. hopefully mine comes out better than yours lol

thanks for the comment mate. any other comments about my car- either good or bad is all good.

matt.

OK people- MASSIVE UPDATE. My boot install is about 90% complete. I just couldn't wait any longer and seeing that i had it on show at the FPV open day i thought i would show it off on the forum. any advice would be much appreciated.

Very nice install Matt, looks even better in person. Get a ghia boot-lid carpet and it will look even better.

Is the install fixed, or you can remove it and still get to the gas tank?

Yeah i should get one of those.
None of the install is fixed. everything can be returned to stock, and i can get to the gas tank no worries. 5 seconds max.

And i will get around to getting a pic of the plates on the car. i must say they do look pritty good lol

hey, i like the boot install, it inspires me to do it to my old eb which i still have. The only problem is though that the install stops you from in an emergency getting to the shutoff valve on the tank which is actually illegal, thats the only reason i never did one for mine. you might want to look into it, my dads been a qualified inspector for the rta for many years and made me aware of this. Just tryin to help. But congratulations it looks nice and neat.

Thanks mate. Its really good to hear some positive feedback. as for the shut off valve i can get to it quicker that it would take me to get out of my car to the boot. that back board just slips up and out. i also knew that it had to be accessed, that's why i made the install to suit.

It was a lot of work to do the install but i enjoyed it and i can say i have done it all myself.

Take care and good luck if you decide to do an install.

Matt

I know that feeling. Mine made 146rwkw at a dyno day only a few weeks after making up to 160rwkw on the same dyno. A bit dissapointed. How much have you spent? If you dont mind me asking? PM me if you instead?
Im gonna dyno mine next week to see whats changed.

Is yours a manual?

Next mod...manual transmission

As for the number plate, seeing as though the front one is slimline, mount it in the middle of the bumper, not at the top. It will look neater.

I think that manual might be the way to go. and i have been meaning to move the number plate. just have to fix up the leftover holes.

hey tony. yeah the eb is a pritty good car, its been good to me. and im sure yours is still faster than mine lol.
