2006 VZ Calais
I've had this car stock for quite a while now, and have only been recently introduced to the world of modding (thanks to a good mate of mine).

Specs/mods so far:

2006 v6 alloytec vz calais
Colour: Odyssey
19" PDW HB-R - Black Machine Rims
Maxxis 245/35/19 Tyres
Generic 55w Xenon 6000k HID High-beam headlights
Kaixen 35w Xenon 6500k HID Low-Beam headlights
Kaixen 55w Xenon 6500k HID Fog Lights
FE1.5 Rear Sports Suspension (lowered)
2 hole air filter mod
k&n panel air filter
2 x 12" JL Audio Sub's
1 x JL Audio Monoblock Amp

Future mods:
- replacing my LED foggies into white halogens DONE - Converted to 6500k HID Foglights
- new exhaust tip maybe?
- possible dyno tune from castle hill exhaust DONE
- possible tint?
- possible lowering?

build period: roughly around two months or so

I think I'm pretty much done modding my car for now, but I'm open to any suggestions :)

Looks good, I do like this colour on the Calais! Should get some more pics up so we can see the rest! Wheels look like they suit it perfectly. Also keen to see what difference the FE2 suspension makes... Thanks for mention also :p

Thanks StealthCalais, I'll be putting more pics up soon.

I also just realised that the FE2 Suspension comes stock with the SV6's and not the calais (my bad).

And the two heavy woofers sitting in the back makes the car look lower than it actually is - I was told that the vz's are known for not be able to handle loads well (though its free lowering if you ask me :D)

Anyway, more pics should be posted up soon

thanks a lot guys.

i've still yet to clean my car and put up some more pics - my car seems to be a dust magnet given the amount of construction work going on next door :(

I'd recommend you get the 19's, or 20's even. 18's seem a tad bit small for such a large car.
