    So much shit in the way! If you remove the plastic air intake stuff, and the radiator with cooling fan attached, you have buckets of room to get at all the bits that need to be changed. I suppose at workshop rates of near $100.00 an hour, and someone that has not done it before, you could possibly justify $1,000.00 including parts. But I am an old fart who had neve done the belt before, and knocked it over in 5 hours including an alternator swap.

    hey fellas

    what sort of intake up grades can be done to the celsiors? the stock air box can it be taken away and replaced with something else that gives it more air flow?

    also anyone have aprice range of a decent exhaust upgrade as well, i dont want it sounding stupid just a nice "ring" to it

    cheers

    Exhaust is quite expensive if you keep the twin system. I got a tig weld twin 2 & 1/4 inch system made up in stainless. Still run 4 mufflers so the note is sedate ie windows up virtually silent. But down you can tell it has a V8 which is nice. This also included new cats as well. Came in round $2000.
    If in doubt power out
