Very nice but you can't just drop a list like that with no details. I've heard of Xenons but Bixenons? Is that the resonator on the intake or are you refering to the muffler? What car did the larger Airbox come from? Looks stock to me. How's the performance on LPG? NIVO? And what did you do to the brakes? Come on...............GIVE.

OK mate.  :)
I've changed projectors in headlamps. In stead of oryginal xenon projectors i've put bixenon ones from audi. These projectors use solenoids to change the position of a metal shield, so that in one position it acts as a cutoff to prevent light from blinding oncoming drivers, and in the other position this restriction is removed for full brightness.  :)
On the intake there is a resonator. It's a alloy copy of mantzel resonator. The airfilter box comes from omega X25DT (2,5TD). It has round exit, which maches perfect to pipe that goes to airflowmeter. All the intake system is isolated against temperature with special mates.
NIVO is car level control.  ::)
The performance on LPG is OK. The car goes just like on petrol. You can hardly taste the difrence. It is OMVL DREAM system.
The front brakes are EBC driled&grooved discs and EBC green stuff pads. Rear brakes are ventilated, drilled discs and EBC green stuff pads.  8-)
The suspension has been lowered with sport springs.

Thanks for the info. I really envy you guys. In the States we have much fewer options. I would kill for a 5-speed but murder won't pay for the cost of purchase, shipping, and conversion. I'd love to hear more about the BiXenon lights. Can you give us details? We have a number of large critters roaming our roads at night and the sooner we can see them the better. I was considering converting the foglights to HID Xenon but this gives me another option.

I love the look of the psuedo Mantzel box but will stick with the dual ram setup for now. My brakes are another story. I have swapped the stock front brakes for calipers from our GTO version of your Monaro. It's a simple bolt-on swap. If you're interested ask for 2004 front calipers, and the mounting brackets, on the LS1GTO Forum and I'm sure you'll find a seller. Many of them are upgrading to Corvette brakes. I added slotted and dimpled discs along with the GTO calipers and let me tell you, they stop the car as if I threw down an anchor. My car came with the Sport suspension but I will be adding lowering springs when it comes the time to replace the struts and shocks.

I like that with all your mods the car maintains a low profile, stealthy apperance. Too often cars with wild wings and fancy paint don't have the performance to back up the looks. I prefer your approach. Like our late great President (not the idiot we have now), Teddy Roosevelt once said, "speak softly and carry a big stick".

Thats a foto of bixenon projectors. The only difrence is that the metal shield betwen the lens and the mirror is able to open for high beam. This is because the selenoid which works when you swich the high bean on.

And the film...

Unfitted is about 300pounds for 4-cyl engine and 400 for 6-cyl. Thats a price without gas tank.
Gas tank is about 70-100.
Fully fitted in car is about 500 for 4-cyl and about 580 for 6-zyl.
They gives you 24month warranty.
Not to bad?? isn't it??  :o
