just bought my self some blue LEDs, and tommorow im goign to fit them into the air vents , ill post pics when im done

[VL Berlina 5speed]

finally finished the LEDs, just dont think the middle air vent will light up well because the angle its on but the side vents work well, cant wait till tonight to see it
if the middle is to weak then the dash will b taken apart again on the weekend to get it on the right angle

Nice man I had that idea, Havent done it yet, Thought it'd be too much messing around lol Very nice though!

Cheers

well ive hit a slight problem there way to fekn bright, they light up all the roof and the side of the windows, and if i look down the vents it hurts my eyes ( not the smartest thing, lol), so looks liek im going to have to get a diff resisitor or something to tone it down

[HoZy]

sand them down a lil bit. and angle them differently.

Cheers

If you can't decided between red or blue, then have a read of this thread:

Do It Yourself - RGB LED Dash Lights Mod

Did something similar myself after reading it

yah i was referring to the clock on the dash, as the factory green stand out in the surround colours and i think ive chosen red to keep it smetrical,
it just a cellophane plastic over the clock so swap it with a red piece

[SUSPECT]

oh wats that sean my vl's quicker :O crazy and my vl isnt stock! i just need more money 2 finish it

[VL Berlina 5speed]

so what done to it clint, rear resissi just been cut out and a big pipe duct tape to gether, CAI dam thats not where near stock LOL, jokz
hmmm quicker i have neva been near u when ur driving, as ur to pove to even make it to the petti station

[EvoVIIIJDM]

boys boys, lets settle this, your both povo!! just jokes guys, lights look good sean, hows your new exhaust clinterus?

[SUSPECT]

not fair... yea exhaust sounds nutz man, getting few other lil goody's tomoz for the vl

[mag]

nah mine is fine, not a prob' only thing that is a prob is the trip, might take my dash apart again for the 4 time so far and place a s/hand trip clock in (and wind the odomotoer to what my dash has on it ),

just went to u pull it 2day and got my self some front struts with adjustable nolathane tops, 30 bucks the pair, the shockers are fekd but i wanted the nolathane tops, also got a new CAS plug cable so tommorow im going to be soldering that into my loom and cleaning it up

Sean a little warning about those Nolathane bearing plates, they are the best but it Will raise the front 25mm..
It's not a problem you just have to allow for it when putting them in and what height springs you've got or what 1s you put in while it's all apart..

Nice ride too!!!

[VL Berlina 5speed]

geez long time since this has been up the top,

yah well money is the big problem, only 4 weeks to i finish school then i can work full time

in the rear i currntly i have king spring lows and stock in the front, ive got the front low king springs in the shed,
but if im to be getting the 18" for my birthday then ill have to change my springs to a lower set like ultra or something to get the right stance,

might do a photoshop one day when i can be bothered of the 18" HBD J' series rims on my car

And there's no problem with money, it's just the lack of it...

[xcop5l]

dude nice vl
reminds me of my dads old one when i was like 10 and drove it up a tree

[VL Berlina 5speed]

well may as well give a little up date on whats been happening with my car,
nothing difrebnt has change just getting it to run fine and little things that will need doing soon.
-my front wheel bearings are stuffed so got to change them soon,
-i think i might have a pin hole leak in my lower radiator pipe but cant be sure as i am lossing a little bit of water in the overflow every few days,
-good news, i scored some paint for free, it is PPG Astroid Silver (metalic, the calais bottom colour) so one day ill be spraying the bottom half of the car,

i have also found a decent package of mags avalible, they are HBD j' series 18x8 rims for $1350 new with tyres, fitted/balenced, new nuts and lock nuts.
i told my perants that i wanted 18s for my 18th birthday ages ago and recntly found these, my has hinted at the idea of getting them but hasnt said a certain yes yet, so looks like i will have to november to find out

[VL Berlina 5speed]

^^^^ these are the 18x8 J' series rims i am talking about,
soon i will photoshop them on to a picture of my car to get a idea of them,
i still like the VY SS rims alot but these have grow on me.

[fu2]

dont mind those j series rims, better idea then the common VY SS.
stop being lazy and photoshop them on so i can see
