    i live in adelaide.so not close enough lol.

    is $9000 to much these days for a modified vlct with rims and paint?

    hopefully if i sell just my silver vl turbo i may have enough for the rest of my wedding.so if i get to keep this im going to turn the boost up and go run some times.

    what you think i could get as a rolling shell minus rims,motor,trans and ecu?

    i would sey $5000 on cop rims.

    this is the sort of prices id be hoping as they have to total $8500 if i wreck it

    $5000 rolling on ceptors[sounds expensive]but the bay is smothed and paint is beautiful.it would cost $5000 just to paint it alone i reckon.
    $1500 for gts rims.[not a must to sell]
    $2000 turbo conversion including plenum,gtr injectors,turbo,manifold,intercooler,microtech
