now I had this case since year 2002 and remembering that it cost SGD $260+ however I didn't purchase it locally, instead I bought it from Taiwan and hand carried it home. Which is of course much cheaper @ SGD $188
Basically GodZyla is just a Lian Li PC-12.
Looks plain therefore decided to mod due to the influence from HardOCP
I started off by cutting the side panel window w/2x 80mm fan blow holes and the top panel 1 x 120mm blow hole
as for linings I use spoiled VHF coaxial cables, I just cut and stripe the inside.
next to use it as U Channel tube and this is how it looks like
Did this rheobus with the help from a poly electrical student SGstealth.
Basically to control fan running from 7volts to 12volts.
PSU Sleeving, using spoiled speaker cables, rubber shrinks.
pardon of the dark pics as it was taking with a 1.5 mega pixel camera back then.. anyway same method as the VHF cable, i use speaker cables instead and stripe it bear so that I can use that to go over the molex cables, then use rubber shrink to go over it.
A very cheap way to connect 4 80mm fans and 1 neon tube to a 4pin molex.

GodZyla done @ Year 2002
back then was a P3 and being using it till early year 2005 where I change the motherboard, processor and rams to a P4.
YEAR 2008 - 2009
I make a come back to mod. This time to enhance and with better ideas
Basically rebuild the entire rig using the same old casing
Firstly attracted by LED fans, I am reluctant to snipe of the ends and to connect to my cheap toy shown above. Therefore made this

Besides adding fans.. I replace my neon tube to a CCFL black light tube and need to replace the Rheobus with a simple switch.

Now thinking that the 2 x 80mm intake fans from the front was block by the HDD cage, I physically move all my HDD to the 5 1/4" Bay. not forgetting did a HDD Cooler to cool those HDD instead of buying Lian Li's 5 1/4 bay converters.
I do face some problems as my 5 1/4" covers are without holes.. therefore replace those with Asus Vento 5 1/4" Mesh cover from my sister's case

To make air flows in more, I cut the bottom part of the bezel and cover it with wire mesh that was purchase at art friends
Now after done all those above.. I feel that my cables are in a mess.. therefore too sometime to tidy them up.
