mcnaughtys MN tourer

[mcnaughty]

Hey everyone names Craig and bought a MN about 6 months ago. I been playing around here and there moding the car but when I bought it it had arb bull bar, canopy and underbody protection, it also had a long range tank and old man emu h/d suspension (stock height).




Since I have owned it I have owned it I have modified a draw to suit the car (it's still a work in progress but it works for now) also has power to the rear with a switch board, lights,merit plugs and
USB power. I also mounted a uhf and a tablet in the car as a GPS and music hub.








That's all for now but there a lot more on the way a few projects already started and a few I'm still trying to work out how to pull off

[Joel]

The flip up tablet is a great idea. Cant believe i haven't seen it before.

[mcnaughty]

Yea I was playing around for ages to work out a way that I liked it
.. it's also on rare earth magnets to it can be removed completely and all that's left behind is the hinges that tuck up under the stereo surround

[Cowboy Dave]

Any chance of a pic of the hinges? Just trying to picture it but mostly failing.

Spent the last few weeks touring around the south west or WA , collie , Pemberton and yallingup region ... car performed awesome and made its way up and down some pretty full on tracks with no issues.

Today I fitted a chip it chip that I scored for $150 and a set of spotties I got super cheap as well
Chip has made a huge difference to overall power and response.
Have started to strip a console cooler I picked up that I'm going to transplant the internals into the existing center console and IL upload how that is progressing in the next few days

[snakesoup]

hey mate, nice work ! what model chip it do you have and what tune you got it on ?

[mcnaughty]

Not sure on the model but it's when they came with the egt gauge... it's on tune 5 at the moment which I'm sure is set up for a 3 inch exhaust which is coming soon

[snakesoup]

sounds like the one I have mate, have you put the egt guage on yet? I'm still unconvinced that mine is working properly to be honest or if it is then it's a bit underwhelming, you seem like yours is working well!

[mcnaughty]

Mine Is defiantly working... huge response difference and a noticible overall power difference. ... I'm about to bypass the chip until I get a egt gauge on it as its pumping out smoke on heavy acceleration

The unit never came with the egt gauge as it was second hand

[snakesoup]

yeah well I'm thinking mine don't work then by the looks I put it on tune 9 and still not see any smoke

[mcnaughty]

Did you do the map sensor mod as well ??

[snakesoup]

mod? the chip harness intercepts the map sensor as well if that's what you mean ?

[mcnaughty]

Yeah the older ones need you to splice 2 wires ... I think the newer ones are a straight plug in ... mine was straight plug but the instructions say to splice a few wires

[mcnaughty]

Sorted out some new wheels ... there ssw cliffs had a fair bit of damage when i bought them from being driven on with a flat so i tidyd up all the gouges and scratches and painted them ... tyers are hankook dynapro rf10 resonably tame all terrain as i wanted minimal road noise ... look like a decent tyre and in a 265/65/17 the car feels and looks so much beter with this size

[Minza]

Looking mcnaughty, can't go past the black on white look, how'd you go with the cooler in the centre console, did you come up with something?

[mcnaughty]

Na unfortunately that project has gone on hold as the internals from the doner were way too big to fit... havent given up yet just just have to cone up with a new plan/ parts to fit to it. Cheers ... loving the look of the black on white and the alloys
