The live axles were a big selling point for the Grand for me; a proper 4WD sofa, had it for just over week and am feeling the love...

Damn, just put the Fishvic sticker on the back but it didn't come out in the pic!


Why does everyone blank out their plates? I love sheep so I will follow.


So far the only mods I've done are to fit the ATRs, some mud mats, Red Centre canvas seat covers and Infinity 63.7i speakers in the rear doors (with some modification!) I've ordered a single DIN DVD player for it, will be adding camera and a decent 4channel amp pretty soon.


Anyway it hit the dirt for the first time today checking out some fishing spots along the Maribyrnong, really impressed with the traction considering the stock setup. Heaps of plans for it all round, will keep y'all posted

I know they're not pictures but I wasn't sure where to put them. I just had the exhaust done yesterday and thought I'd share. Sounds quite good now, not too loud but just enough so you can actually tell it's a V8. Doesn't drone either which is good.

Hey HR31COUPE, sounds good. What are the specs of the system you fitted?

Basically used all the stock piping as it was already 2.5" mandrel bent, had the standard muffler cut out and a generic type straight through muffler with flanges welded on either side put back in it's place. Replacement muffler was approx 1/3 the size of the standard one.

Then had the standard tip chopped off and the twin 2.5" tips welded in place.

Only cost $300 supply and fitted which was pretty good.

I presume by the fact that mine has been a shopping trolley / pram for the last 100,000km means it has a stock setup and I'm loving the sound of that, mmmm.

Don't get me wrong - I have had another in my youth (HQ 253..)
