    Cool 2010 Chevrolet Camaro

    Posting up my old mans new camaro,All the goodies have started arriving for it from the states. The camaro will finish its RHD conversion next Wednesday. Going to go with BPS in cleveland for the install as he did tuned the last ve clubby. It will be running the 3.875inch pulley and a softer tune on it while the engine runs in, afterwards will be running a 3.5inch pulley giving it a bit more boost. Anyway up for any more ideas and feedback for mods? Will be painting the wheels black and putting the black bowties on aswell. Keep posted for dyno results and more pictures.

    agreed on the broze colour rims, disagreed with the black tho.

    but hey, just my opinion and you know what they say about those?

    already had a great discussion on this with Ari a few weeks back.
    car costs $40k AUD. shipping/taxes etc = about 10% (4k) then RHD conversion = about $30k so about $90-100k to import a new car and have it onroad.
    however car over 30yrs old, no RHD needed can be picked up cheap from USA which = good idea.

    i do admire people that are willing to do it so thumbs up to you weldmac.
    cannot wait to see how it goes with the charger on it.

    Damn I wish these were on lots in Australia. I'd have an SS in a heart beat! Sub $40k USD can't go wrong... If ever I end up living in America for a period of time it will be one of these for sure!
