Cooling Mods
 
So far, I only 2 w cooling mods for our ride:
  • Change Bonnet
  • Install ATF cooler (for AT models)

Anyone know what else we can do?
Everytime when i touch the bonnet after a drive, it feels hot enough to fry eggs.
Really tempted to change the bonnet now.

How about piping the aircon to the intakes?
Super cold air intakes and super hot bods.
