    Default my new project

    hi guys
    next week end im picking up a VN berlina wagon V6
    just one problem...i have no idea where to start .
    should i start by stripping it and painting it or should i get all of the other mods done first like exhaust etc.

    im going to be painting it in blueprint blue ...i wanna leave it a V6 and maybe look into supercharging it....
    putting a set of 17's on it.....i am going to be doing everything i can on my own....

    any help would be great

    really got to decide what you want for the final product and go from there. if you fit a 2.5" zorst to suit the n/a V6 then it's going to be to small if you get a charger. maybe start with a full service and make sure it's all running right first.

    check the raptor section if your interested in supercharging, Tim will sort you out

    yeah i want to rebuild the motor....
    maybe upgrade a few internals.....like stronger crank,pistons etc
    then get a supercharger later down the track.
    im thinking i might do all the mods i want to do first then paint at the end so i dont scratch the paint while mods r being done...

    Definetly go Blueprint, looked killer on my old VP and i reckon it would look even better or a wagon.
