Finally got the chance to resize and upload some photos of my ute. It's my first car and the offer I got it for was to good to pass up with all the extras it came with even though it was an SV6. Not sure what else I can do at the moment besides a new exhaust and reverse camera.

very nice, love the thunders.
did you do the audio mods yourself?
wondering if i should take the plunge with my new baby or not
Wheres the Gun Metal grey.................
Or is this a special edition or some shit...
The audio was done through autobarn. Not sure about the gun metal etc. since this is my first holden purchase.
I love the Alto Grey, looks great mate.
How come you don't have the "special thunder rims" though? The grey ones.
Some people say less talk more action, i say more torque less traction.
Check Out My Rig Monaro CV8z![]()
with the audio whats that pioneer thing under the seat? is that a woofer/sub or something.
If you dont mind asking how much did it set you back at autobahn for installation.
The sound system I got came as part of the deal when i purchased it, unfortunately the receipts have faded alot. Yea the passenger seat has a pioneer sub underneath and the drivers side has a 4 channel 600 watt amp. 6.5 speakers and all the stock ones have also been replaced. I'll try and get picks later of the amp. From what I can still read on the receipt it is definitely creeping to the 1.5k+ with labour and custom boxes etc. All together the extras cost about 3.5k and I managed to pick it up for 35k with about 500km only on it.
Gun Metal didn't really suit the Alto Gray paint job, plus something abit different from the rest of the thunders :P
how does the pioneer sub sound. Im looking for something similar with an inbuilt amp so i can save space in the ute.
Sounds pretty decent with it all setup, you can see the rear view mirror shake and feel that thumps from the sub if that's anything haha. Quite happy with it but I'm not hard to please when it comes to a decent sound system in a vehicle. Although my sub and amp are two separate pieces with the sub under the passenger and amp under the drivers.
