justa few pics so far..
that is a good deck i have it in my vl
yeah i got it nice and cheap from jb $320 fitted it myself that was my first DIY not a bad job if i must say
ok stuff the limit theres no limit when it comes to power so apart from above work im thinking maybe a turbo get this thing really peakin
nice looking car, really likeing it, it'll be a ripper tho wen ya get your engine work done.
just did my bonnet put new hinges on and it sits alot better now got a new windscreen as well after the bonnet went through it , also glued all of my door window rubbers they all dropped looks heaps better. no engine work yet still saving
did me engine mountsthe other day and CAI and i got a level2 speedo $100 ex cop its got a hole up top where a light goes so they can have the mains off but still see speedo
put on some pacemakers and you can tell the difference there been on a while now and going good i also put some low kings inthe back along with a fresh set of kyb shocks alot better i m just waiting to do front. I also put a new whiteline sway bar upfront and even with the shit suspension you can tell the difference
very clean car mate.. sounds like your doing quite a bit of work to it
i just seem to pour money in it but i enjoy it ive also done the inlet manifold gaskets and put new coils on recently and i do all the work myself. Me and the other half just bought our first home so rebuilding my engine may take some time not partying for me
if everthing goes to plan next on the agenda is front suspension and new steering rack then im on the hunt for twin spot calipers and a set of 17"s prolly vy ss rims
lowered the whole car not to long ago and got an allignment, my strut was bent real bad and cant be alligned properly, then i smashed up the front in that major downpour in melb a few months ago and made it worse, now i have to take all the suspension back off and put in a new strut. one side looks like its got a mad camber like a super car only thing is itsnow wearing out my tyre real quick on the inside
